yes today music? is forced in to pre teens.when i was 13 i never heard much music just what we played ourselves at school concerts and odd time at home.it was'nt untill i reached my late teens that i discoverd music that i really enjoyed.nothing like discovering a band like the doors. black sabbath.pink floyed.the who .or led zeppelin .and countless others.purely .not by advertising.
So the kids never learn about real music anymore. They only get served marketing crap like Gaga, Justin, Madonna, Coldplay... They think the old music like Stones, Who, Zeppelin is boring. But it is exactly the other way round. Todays music is absolute crap. You can not listen to it anymore, because it has no quality, style. But Stones, Who, Zeppelin these guys really could play and perform.
Todays music weakness is not about alternative tunings. The Stones used mainly Open G for example and their are probably the best Rock'n Roll band of all times. Todays weakness in music is because band do not learn their business on stage anymore. They are casted by idiot marketing people who dont know anything about music anymore. The radios only select shit music because they think its cool. Same with TV stations.
@RobbyBobbins thats what i meant. Its the easy way out. It pisses me off when i go to the music store here in town and every friggen guitar in there is in drop D. Its becoming the norm of today for youth.....they don't know what to do with a guitar unless they drop it.
@mylespaul777 ya....back then you actually had to learn how to "play" the guitar in order to be in a band. Drop D and open tunings weren't poplular because people knew they sounded too dry. Now a days its the norm, and our music of today suffers for it.
i love the part when they talk and explain how to play it

@bigtorquehemi - not entirely true. The Who and Zeppelin both utilized them a lot
