love it how...

I can hardly ever have a decent normal conversation with a older bears re: pop or modern music.

I apparently am a bitch* and ageist and don't know what I'm talking about. *Sigh*.

Back to my two much older partners who listen to Handel, Wagner and suchlike, or aren't really into music. So much safer...cos I know little about those. Apart from Bach and Wagner who I mostly hatehatehate. Well only bits of them.

I do hold strong views re: music having written, podcasted, listened, watched, DJ'd etc for years...but strange how it just reverts to age. I thought that had passed years ago. Happy to argue the toss, but strange how people immediately get defensive and offensive.

But me? Ageist? Really?


*irony of a supposedly butch looking man in redneck bubba drag living in NYC choosing to call me a bitch, well...choice of that word confirms that in this case I see Tarzan and most definitely hear Jane.

So I'm guessing that show tunes are right out.....

Not a fan of them...unless it's the Disney/60's classic, but not usually. Saw Wicked and it left me totally bemused and blank, if I like show tunes they need to have, well, a memorable tune...

And not really pop music unless Glee counts?
