http://www.savagepacer.com/community/blog-233 Comments for "rock" en http://www.savagepacer.com/community/bakerblog/sound-rock-ages#comment-1770 <p>Without question there is a place for great musicians, however old they may be, but the New Kids on the Block reunion tour?<br /> Were they "musicians" in the 80s?<br /> Could they ever "rock"?<br /> I equate their shlef life to a bag of potato chips left open on a humid, summer day... short.<br /> Full disclaimer, I have been to a New Kids on the Block concert. Yep, the Minnesota State Fair in 198-something. I was right there hangin' as tough as the as I possibly could on that special night at the Grandstand.<br /> But some 20 years later, I have nearly healed from that experience, and can honestly say, "What happened on that Grandstand stage on that Minnesota night, should have stayed on that Grandstand stage on that Minnesota night."<br /> These clowns are going to perform at the Xcel?<br /> That's rich...<br /> I can't wait to see how many tickets are sold to that.<br /> But to try and stay true to the blog topic, I think a great musician has no shelf life.<br /> Their songs may have to be played and sung by new, more hip musicians to be noticed, but they can write great songs.<br /> I'll have to check this documentary out!!</p> <br class="clear" /> Mon, 09 Jun 2008 16:12:47 -0500 shawn hogendorf comment 1770 at http://www.savagepacer.com
