Why do you say that? Quo concerts are always packed with people of all ages enjoying themselves, including the band. Rock 'n roll was originally dance music & doesn't need to have deep significant, meaningful & usually depressing lyrics to be good. I think we had much more fun in the old days. Bring back rock 'n roll I say.

If you say...I've never been a fan of RnR. Too simple for my taste.

Often the simple things in life are the best. You should try it some time.

I have heard of these guys, but I don't recall them ever being very popular here in the states, as a matter of fact, as a life long music fan, I can't say I know any of their songs.

It's basically 3 chord rock 'n roll Paz. Chuck Berry stuff  although they're far better than most people give them credit for. I doubt very much that Status Quo would be popular in the US as you have many similar home-grown bands.

Just sometimes, I kick in our local classic rock radio station. But soon enough, I return to my music again.

What do you listen to then?

The descendants of RnR.

Yeah, classic rock maybe. But a good part of alternative rock is anything but simple.

I think we need to separate the "commercial" rock from the "genuine" rock.... Commercialising any kind of music makes it bubblegum that gets chewed over and over again. I have a big problem with the socalled "alternative" rock in the skate-style... you know, the Good Charlotte, Blink 182, Greenday etc. Stuff. They all had some nice tunes, but it gets kinda repetitive to me, always those powerguitars, same vocal-styles etc. It all becomes so alike, certainly when it's getting more and more airplay at the popular radio-stations. Yet I believe there are some really inventive and motivated bands out there that take this particular style of music to a higher level... We need new things people... we need it bad!
