I understand how people get old. When you are young, you think it will never happen. Then you realize a culture has sprung up that has nothing to do with you, that you don't understand, nor care to understand. I first noticed this happening to me with Laguna Beach. I just don't get it. And recently I realized that there are all sorts of hip! hot! new! bands that I have never heard nor feel like making the effort to hear. My newfound curmudgeon status was confirmed with my top artists on audioscrobbler/last.fm from last week. (The Sugababes and Rachel Stevens are blips on my Dylan, Dionne, ABBA, and Dusty soundscape).
