Untitled - being ignorant about musicians.
I didn't know what to name this topic, but I just wanted to tell this somewhat stupid story because I was bored. I was talkin with some friends and we were talkin about concerts and my older, very very smart(at least on the topic of music) friend mentioned the last few concerts he went to and one of them was a Jimmy Page concert a while back and my 16 year old friend was like... Who the hell is Jimmy Page?
I, of course, laughed and he got mad but I wasn't laughing because he didn't know, I was laughing because I remember not knowing too. When I was about his age Page and Plant were touring I'd hear their names on the radio like every 20 minutes saying how they were rock gods. I heard names like John Fogerty, Pete Townshend ,Roger Waters and didn't know why the hell they were "legends." Hell, I thought Jeff Beck was the guy who sang Devil's Haircut...
Does anyone else remember a point in your life where instead of just listening to music you wanted to know where the members went after the band, even if they aren't that good on their own? In 20 years I wanna be full of music knowledge to pass down to my future kid(s).
