It's one of the great things about LBO - people can have differing opinions and not be total douches about it.
Personally, being born in 1961 and getting into music in the late 60's/early 70's, I have an affinity for that era's rock music. DP, Heep, Zep, etc. were mainstays in my life. I grew somewhat disenchanted with music by the 90's, and I love the fact that some bands (TCV, Rival Sons, Red Fang, etc.) have filled a void with solid reproduction of classic rock attitude and delivery. I love the bare bones, no glam/makeup/unitards/cat-faced drummers presentation with bare-knuckle music, and I don't find this stuff boring or predictable - I find it refreshing. The music I find boring and predictable (Kiss, Rush, Jaco, etc.) seem to be so over-the-top revered throughout the music-related forums that I just shake my head and wonder what most folks see in that stuff. To me, music is energy, not entertainment.
