    O.T.--went to Best Buy Saturday in N. Texas...and "Tuesday's Gone" was what was going

    on...in my opinion, one of the best songs ever. so my wife and 12 yr old go and do their shopping while I stand by the big speaker and absorb the beautiful sounds of Lynyrd Skynyrd.

    while standing and listening, I look over at the 500 inch screen of a concert going on. it is muted and it's Katie Perry. she is jumping rope with her back up folks that are decked out in Power Ranger Gear.

    my question is , do the younger folks think that it is really modern day coolness to be jumping rope on stage with power ranger action figures? is that what you really think is really good entertainment?

    do you really think us older folks who are into the Stones, Zeppelin, Beatles, Elvis, Skynyrd and shit are retards and we just don't understand the significance of Katie perry jump roping with power rangers is really the way to be and we are just a bunch of old retards?

    do you not see how ghey jumping rope with power rangers is? (not that there's anything wrong with being ghyey)....but damn man....I mean really

    have you ever looked at the lyrics of "Tuesday's Gone"? and listened to it? paid any attention ? you think Skynyrd's Tuesday's Gone sucks and we really need to be into jump roping with power rangers is the "in thing" and us old folks just don't "get it" ?

    seriously, I'm just trying to figure you youngsters out. just wanting to understand.. cuz I really don't at this point.

    I realized today's generation was gone musically when bands' ideas of dancing on stage was jumping up and down like they had a pogo stick stuck up their ass. Yes, there were other clues like the music just sucking but that was the clincher for me.

    Your parents probably thought Skynyrd was garbage, and I know they hated the stones.

    please forgive me for being old and out of touch but I don't know who Lester and Earl are. I'm just saying that when I walked in and Tuesday's Gone was blaring out and while listening to that while watching her skipping rope with power rangers while the audience was going crazy made no sense to me. it was like an indication of how our society is sliding down and how we don't appreciate actual talent or have the ability to even recognize it.

    QuadrupleOption has a hell of a point, but if you don't have video, it's Skynyrd and Zeppelin all day long. Showing my age, but I saw Skynyrd, ZZ Top, Blue Oyster Cult and Suzi Quatro at the Liberty Bowl on July 4, 1974.

    No trolling. I prefer Lester to Katy.

    My kids are 10 and 13. . . I've raised them on Led Zeppelin, The Ramones, Aerosmith and The Stones. They hate pop music.
