The Golden Age of Rock 'n' Roll is Officially Over

[Eutychus]

Bill Wyman is now officially able to get a senior citizens bus pass.

[Arden Ranger]

Now ?

He's been looking that way for a loooong time. He's not as old as I thought.

He still kicks ass.

[11811]

Is he still dating 15-year-olds?

And is there a senior citizens' card for that?

[flodnak]

Do the living dead qualify for senior citizens' passes? :eek:

[Jonathan Chance]

So I'm hoping y'all mean this to be a celebration thread because I showed up in my wolf costume here.

Where's the beer and when do we get to make fun of Sting for being a self-important weenie?

Anyone who confuses op-ed pieces set to music with rock n' roll has deeper problems than I can help them with! :D

[Jonathan Chance]

Ooo

Does that mean we officially get to consider all those dippy hippy 'protest' bands from the 60s out of it, too!

I'm all for that!

[Bandanaman]

How long til Eminem gets his bus pass?

Ooooh! Oooh! Russians!

Do I win?

[Jonathan Chance]

No one wins if you remind us of that song.

They were folkies: they didn't rock, and they didn't want to rock, because how could they have a good time when there was injustice in the world, y'know? :rolleyes:

In fact, they were so anal that most of 'em were pissed at Dylan when he made the jump from folk to rock.

After all, it doesn't matter what you read in the forums; it's always been the same old scene.

I dunno, man. Chicago declared itself for the 'revolution'.

That should have earned them a .38 caliber review right there.

[RTFirefly]

Chicago?

Sorry, I thought you were talking about 'protest bands'. :)

Actually, I'd say Pete Townsend hearing aids, but that'd be just mean.

Oh, and Bill Wyman dating a 15 year old? There's an unwritten rule that once you get old enough, the age limit loops. Just ask Tony Randall.
