I’m 40, and when I was a teenager, EVERY band had CDs. And I know a lot of music has shifted to digital. So much so that I heard Best buy stopped selling CDs. Presumably because nobody buys them.
So I wonder what musicians sell besides t-shirts and posters at concerts. Do the kids have ANY CDs? Do they buy mp3’s? Do they just use pandora and spotify? Do they even own their own music?
I’ve given up on trying to understand the lingo. Other generations lingo sounds stupid to me, but still understandable based on context.
I have NO idea what a skibifibi toilet is…sounds like a toilet after some taco bell and untalented jazz, but maybe I can try to understand their thought process on media consumption.
Dang. Wasn’t expecting that many feels this morning. I was a sophomore in college on 9/11 not far from where you were. Actually, we might have listened to the same radio station. I was a fan of 107.9 The End! Maybe this is what they call a mid life crisis, but I’ve been thinking a lot about generations lately too. Thanks for the tale, it really hit home.
