Do you think rock bands will ever make a resurgence?

In popularity and dominate the radio? I grew up listening to late nineties and early 2000's bands such as Linkin Park,red hot chili peppers, blink 182, matchbox twenty, third eye blind, sugar ray,etc. I remember their songs actually being played on the "pop/top chart" stations that today are dominated by the likes of Chris Brown, Drake, Taylor Swift, and selena gomez... Not one band. Will bands/rock ever make a main stream comeback?

The future of music is in live performance. In 40 years, no one is going to make a goddamn dime off of anything other than ticket sales, if not sooner than that.

It will all depend if the media tells you to listen to rock again. It is a shame that what you hear on satellite radio won't ever make it to regular radio.

Pop culture started shifting away from rock in the 90s and outright abandoned it 10 years ago. The radio doesn't even play it anymore. There's a whole generation of kids growing up righ now who aren't hearing rock made in the last 20 years on their radio. Rock is old people music, like smooth jazz or music that utilizes actual instruments. Most indie bands don't really "rock" per se as they all have this kinda groovy feel with no bite or crunch. The only music giving kids that 10' tall bullet-proof badass feeling is hil-hop. The only music that even sorta sounds like rock that's in the mainstream is nashville pop country :yak:

It's a sad world

That's exactly what I was thinking didn't notice it at the time but it pretty much disappeared from the radio around 2006 so 10 years ago.

I'm glad my musical tastes are stuck in the 60s and 70s

Slow dance songs is probably country music. Everything else is some form of hip hop or pop.
