Sorry, how the Russians allegedly hacked my record player according to an anonymous source who has CIA connections and no ulterior political motives.

I have 2 existential questions for the group: if someone enjoys 'dadrock' but is not a dad, does it then necessarily stop being 'dadrock'? And if a 16 year old boy with a kid listens to rock music, does that music then automatically become 'dadrock'?

But then that's confusing, because earlier 'dadrock' was defined as 'music which is liked by dads'

> > And if a 16 year old boy with a kid listens to rock music, does that music then automatically become 'dadrock'?
> no

And this is also confusing, because earlier 'dadrock' was defined as 'music which is liked by dads'.

You seem to have tangled yourself up in an insensible web of contradiction here!

> I wish I never said dadrock

LOL I'm not surprised, it seems you've made a mess of yourself.

Define it then, because apparently your understanding of it seems to be that "dadrock is music which isn't rock and which dads don't listen to" lol.

Dude you've made such a mess of yourself in this thread :)

Probably should have clarified that it's about baby boomer stuff, anon b seems autistic enough to require it

Could you define "baby boomer stuff" and give an example of a band which sings about it?

Lorraine !oZfU/tvMPw replied with this 9 years ago, 1 hour later, 1 day after the original post[^] [v] #741,283

@previous (B)

By stuff, I mean "culture". Specifically, I am talking about the mainstream musical expression of culture as seen through the eyes of a baby boomer.

Though the bands, the culture and the boomers themselves grow and evolve through time, there is a type of music that crystallised that culture in that moment of time.

So for an example, I would choose maybe like Bon Jovi's song "livin' on a prayer"

The people who coined the term "dadrock" did so because of their memories of their fathers listening to that kind of music as they grew up. Thats why it's called that, not because it's music that any particular dad enjoys.

I would argue that the term "dadrock" is similar to the term "classic rock", except that seen through the paradigm of the millennial culture, it's just not relevant to their life experience any more.

If I can be of more help to clarify the phrase then please feel free to reply with what it is that you need from me. I'm probably being trolled.

You have a ponderously warm manner of saying nothing in infinite sentences.

I'll ask you again (taking into account your rephrasing of your own term): define "baby boomer culture". Don't just ramble on about growing and evolving and crystallising it, say what it is.

In this case, by "Baby Boomer Culture" I mean: The prevailing culture of the demographic born approximately between 1946 and 1964 in the western Anglosphere, during the approximate time span of 1960 and 1980 (this label can be applied to imitations thereof regardless of the imitators demographic).

Was that unclear?

Dear lord, how you function on a daily basis is beyond me.

Snowflake, listen carefully, ok? Say what it is. Not when was it, but what was it? What is this culture? What are its features and characteristics which define it as a distinct culture.

Once you have (finally) done that we can then move on to seeing how this is what connects bands such as The Beatles, King Crimson, The Who, Queen, Led Zeppelin, and (apprentaly) Bon Jovi, etc.

the term says more about the inventor of the term more than what the term is supposed to mean
the inventor of the term is someone I imagine to be some kid who who is so young that he relates the what he knows about the world to how old it is compared to how old people in his family are

Needing to know how often things happen is a sympton of autism. Relax by spinning some Time and ticking away those moments that make up a dull day.
