In the next ten years, all the members of the 50’s era of rock and roll be dead, and most of the 60’s era will be dead. That time of rock entertainment is over. Sad for the baby boomers. Reliving your youth at rock concerts is coming to an end.

My favorite music is from the 1920s and 1930s, and all of those musicians are gone. I was lucky enough to hear Nick Lucas do a live performance of his 1929 hit Tiptoe Through the Tulips.

I wouldn't be so sure. Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins) noted that, despite the music industry foresaking everyone but hippity hop rappers, concert venues are still full for rock acts while the favored often get sparse attendance.

So despite the money grab and attempt at audience manipulation discerning fans have been staying loyal to what and who they like - not who they're TOLD to like.
