| Why does most new music suck? Tube,The PT tree concert I attended (FOABP tour) was also excellent. It was my idea to go and dragged a friend along as well who also enjoyed it. It was the loudest concert I had been to probably since college. The sound was stellar as well as the... | |
| Why does most new music suck? "**** I haven't even touched the surface and I dare say no one here has heard anywhere near the full gamut of what's been done in the past.********"That's very true and a good way to go if new music is not of interest. I do some of both, but still... | |

| Why does most new music suck? In the good old days of music/audio (the 70's for me) I used to listen to the radio to discover new music I liked.Tougher these days, especially if one is not disposed to like modern pop music. I qualify but only to an extent, because I constinue ... | |
