Oh, what a coincidence, you found those important stuff to do just when
there were good arguments to reply your "rock is, was and always will be
crap" thing, which is just as wrong as I would be if I said that poetry
is and always will be crap. There's good art on both, we just have to
look for it.

Did I say something about poetry? I just wrote some stuff on something I
know a bit well, music. At least well enough to notice that the
guitarists don't keep playing the same chords just as they did on '58
and so on. You wasn't born wrong, you know a lot about poetry,
sufficiently well to discuss it. But music is a different form of art,
so you will also need to know about it if you want to discuss it
SERIOUSLY. At least learning the difference between a 12-bar chord
structure and an atonal song.
