Hey Dan,

The only thing that's the same is change or at least the perception of it
and the hottest new trend is a sometimes thought to be a great new inventiom
by the masses. There more I listen to music, there more I don't much
difference between the most varied kinds of music, from classical to
country.

Personally, I think all of these trends and bands will be forgotten very
fast although they obviously have great merit right now or they would not be
here and thriving to some extent. Pop seems to live on but it's a matter of
how it's cloaked and I think that will always change so as to be palatable
to the kids' tastes of the day,tastes that are created by the mass media but
tastes nevertheless.
