Circa 1920s
Drinking, cocaine, dancing all night and hanging out at speakeasys? What is it with you kids and your “Jazz” music?
Circa 1930s
This is the devil’s music! Don’t even bring this into the house! Stay out of the jook joints and get to church! You and your “Blues” music!
Circa 1940s
You’re gonna break something flipping yourselves over like that! You kids and your ”Swing” music!
Circa 1950s
This is the devil’s music! (pt 2). I know this is all about the sex. Are you having the ‘sex’? What is it with you and this “Rock n Roll” or whatja callit?
Circa 1960s
Subversive anti-American commies! And you can’t tell the boys from the girls with all of that long hair, damn hippies! And you're all on the 'pot'! Turn down that “Acid Rock” crap!
Circa 1970s
What’s with the dog collar? Is that a safety pin in your ear? That’s it, no more “Punk”!
Circa 1980s
This is the devil’s music! (pt 3). You and your leather jacket and ‘head banging’. “Heavy metal” needs to be banned!
Circa 1990s.
Oh heck no! It’s not even ‘music’, and it’s too violent! Never bring any more “Rap” into this house!
Circa 2000s.
Why you gotta be so ‘sad’ all the time? This music is dreary and bad! I want you to stop listening to “Emo”!
And on and on.
Stay dangerous. Stay subversive. Stay expressive. Stay YOU!
Imma go listen to some Fats Waller.

To be fair the 70s to the 2000s (and the early 2010s) was a bomb ass time for live shows, Wish I could have seen em, Always wanted to be part of the punk scene, I love the games life is strange ngl, Because I get to live it a little bit through chloe at least (I felt this way during my teen years anyway) Sadly i was a very sheltered child so I lived my life online and through media lmao
I went to punk shows (and other concerts) in the 80s and 90s. It was okay. Had a great time!

2010s: What is this "dubstep"? It's just noise! Is that what the kids are interested in now?
2020s: What? This isn't "AI slop"! You kids need to be more open minded!
Mind if I use this to add to it?
