In a recent thread Townsman jungleland2 had the following reaction regarding my report of Billy Joel's "Still Rock 'n Roll to Me" being played on a Philadelphia Oldies station, WOGL 98.1 FM:
I can not have a record that I bought with my own money be old enough to be an OLDIE (so same goes with Mr. Roboto and Start Me Up)
A lot of us are getting old enough to start running into these feelings. Nobody told us there'd be days like these!
To his credit, jungleland2 quickly slapped himself out of his anxious feelings and turned the situation into a worthwhile topic for discussion:
Question for the Townspeople..
- Where does "oldies" start/end
- Where does "classic rock" start/end
- Where does "modern rock" start/end
a year? a song? a sub-genre?
What do you think?
