re: Do you think rock bands will ever make a resurgence?

Actually it disappeared even furthef back than that. It litreally went out for good when the millenium/century/2000 came around. It was trailing off fast in the late 90s and completely disappeared around 2000. Thank God for satellite radio as it's the only outlet for decent pop/rock music. Terrestrial radio (at least as far as music is concerned) died around the year 2000.
