As far as "old fogeys" that kinda tells Me that the FReepers responding to the Thread are mostly from the same mentality but not necessarily the same age group. There's times when I'm going down the road and a song I don't like comes on the radio and I'll hit the SCAN button and I might stop it on some Classical Music Channel has something on at the moment and I like what I'm hearing so I check it out. I guess it might be called expanding one's horizon.
That said if you've never heard this before you might want to keep it in the memory bank.
"Old age and treachery can overcome youth and exuberance." Which translates to: Old people may not have the patience to put up with any crap out of the "yutes" so we might just shoot them because we've gotten lazy and are too tired to fight in our old age.
Have You ever heard of/listened to this song ?
ive posted many mp3s back when they were in and had 90 to 95% double downloads from .mil and .gov IPs which tells me they were liking and downloading my offerings “To the Troops”. however, not a single response from any freepers because i wasnt, nor in “The Clique”. all music posts went ignored.
People post music threads here, for the most part, to appeal to their own little groups and any outsiders are ignored. and the same people wonder why the numbers here are not growing.
I understand what you are saying about the oldies and some youngins my want to check out some heritage on music, but, i do not believe the majority of a threads music posts that are from the 50s and 60s is an interest to anyone not 70+ years old or trying to impress others whithin their little cliques.
With the exception of Kathy, I believe most are using “The Troops” to feed their own narcisism and I seriously think that is wrong and should be abolished...
