Obviously not your grandfather's Rolling Stone.
Don't think I've read one, or had the interest to read one in about 25 years.

"Best Boy Band"? - An oxymoron for sure, but I do like 4 of those bands listed. Geez, can you guess which ones?

 

[fronobulax]

I have heard of 8 of them but only 4 made enough of an impression that I actually know I heard them. I suspect applying the genre "Boy Band" to a time when the term didn't exist is why I even get 4.

I fondly remember reading Rolling Stone in the 70's and 80's but one morning I woke up and realized that what they were passionately writing about was not what I was interested in. I wonder who changed? :wink:

Hunter Thompson. :wink: , back atcha.
And even more so, Tom Wolfe. :roll:
