SL8R

In sports, it's often that talking heads like to compare generations, and, of course, put theirs in the most positive rays of sunlight (Magic Johnson/Larry Bird were so much better than what there is today. Yadda, yadda, yadda.). Sorry folks, but here is the undisputed King of surfing (Born 1972).

What a dick

"Go to the annual meetings of a trade association these days and you will find out that we won't be competitive in the 90's because our children are ill-educated, illiterate, unmotivated, lazy, drug-addicted slobs."

"Rock fans pay top dollar to see baby-boomer bands. . ."

Yes, there is no doubt that the members of Van Halen are FKN boomers, but they owe their success to GenXers that were looking for something other than the crap made by Cat Stevens and Fleetwood Mac. Them being boomers has nothing to do with fans purchasing tickets to see them live.
