None of it sounds familiar

This weekend, there's a music festival on this little island where I live. Music has been blasting all day. I haven't recognized any of it. When I look at the lineup, I don't recognize any of the groups. (Actually, "The Weather Undergound" sounds familiar, but I wonder if I'm thinking of this one.)

It just reminds me that I'm old. I was talking with some friends at school, as one called the other old. The older was all of 27. Upon being asked how old I am, I replied with my age, which is greater than 27. I hear conversations like this all the time at school. "In 3 years I'll be 30! I can't believe I'm so old." There an older 1L at school who keeps blaring her music in the lounge late at night. I don't care for her music, but I recognize it. I'm afraid to say that I can still declare that one of the groups is "Lisa Lisa with Cult Jam and Full Force." You see, I was around at the birth of MTV. Back when they played music.

I just wish those kids at the concert would stop blaring their music.
