I'd lament the passing of the rock music form to where it is today, but clearly I'd be late to the party, because that Las Vegas-ification of rock has been underway for a quarter-century already.
I'm just a perturbed old codger wistfully reminiscing about when rock and roll actually 'meant something, man!'...even though I'm probably looking at the distant past through nostalgia glasses with a crack in them.
At least the stuff I listened to in the early 1980's drove my parents up a wall. Contrast that with that Taylor Hawkins tribute concert, which is as kiddie-safe as safe can be. A pointless display to keep the various brands onstage economically viable.
