It's *not* too early to nostalgize the 90's! Just as long as nobody touches the period from '88 to '91 - that is a truly evil period in world music history.
And about stupid people - I like Leonard Cohen's tongue-in-cheek line: "We are ugly, but we've got the music.." ... at the risk of generalizing broadly, I think most of your readers may very well be cut from the same mold - kids who could read, can think, cut through the looks-centered superficial stuff ... steer away from being shallow, self-centered and vapid.. I dunno. Honk if this rings a bell.. :) (but then again I might be talking oot me arse). What I'm trying to say is that we may not get the benefits of fitting into the shallow mold, but we get LOTS more toys to play with :)
