First of all, since this is a guest-only forum I figure no one, except people who are gluttons for punishment, actually read this board. Sorry I'm not inclined to join your community but I prefer anonymity.    If you've ever played air guitar, more than likely, you weren't doing it to a Michael Jackson song. You were doing it to an Aerosmith song,  CNN tacitly acknowledges that these video games are pulling kids out of the quagmire of ubiquitous urban music which has been befouling our public airwaves for more than a decade. Here's to a potential renaissance of good music that's more than shouting 'mοthеrfuсkеr' and 'skeet skeet skeet'. I too have noticed this. Those Guitar Hero games are very popular with kids/teens/20 somethings, I know alot of college students who are into the guitar hero games. It's definately true that due to the popularity of these games young people are getting more interested in Rock music again, especially good ol' Classic Rock, instead of this rap/hip hop Trash and that is a very good thing. This rap (rap is just short for crap) is killing our society. It truly is an enemy of civilization, poison.     I think alot of young people these days have been raised hearing nothing but shi##y rap music on the radio and television and so when they hear all of this old Rock music they realize ..wow... these guys actually played instruments and had talent, they didn't just yell obscenities into a microphone over a simple breakbeat. And you know it's almost completely WHITE people playing these games, the Blacks and Mestizos are still waiting for the Gang Star game to come out. This is certainly a positive trend though lets hope it continues! Here's to good White music :clink
