Well, I bet Avril Lavigne doesn't work at Newbury Comics...
Seriously, I'm sure there's a spectrum. My wife's nephew, when he
graduated from high school 2 years ago, was sitting at the celebratory BBQ
with his friends talking about what bands they would be seeing that summer--
Who, Tull, Crimson, Dead spin-offs, and so on. I was telling my wife, I
wanted to go over and say I'd seen every one of those bands by 1980. We
were trying to figure out why they were into the old bands, and my theory
was that it was Philly, and Philly has a great blassic rock station.
