Good to see 4 pages worth of banter on this subject.
Bad to see that there's opinions along the lines of reaching a certain age means you can't listen to new 'indie' bands anymore without embarrassing yourself.
I pray to Allah that when I'm knocking on a bit that I'll still get a rush and dizzy grin from some new band that 'da kids' may be liking.
If it floats your ear boats then whats's the problem.
As for creating an image to sell records.....hasn't this been done since the dawn of time? The Stones spring to mind straight away. Ooooh look, we're bad boys playing bad boy blues. No you're not. You're from Dartford, you go to the LSE and you're quite well spoken (well, until the mockney effect kicked in).
