All of us that want to hear some of the music discussed in this thread are, unfortunately, barking up the wrong tree. It is all about gathering the most possible dancers, and people gawking at the dancers, as possible. It is simple economics, the more people, the more the local retail businesses paying rent will benefit. And the Villages business plan is about catering to home buyers and commercial business rental customers. Us old farts that enjoy the good old tunes are considered dinasoures. It's NOT about making existing homeowners happy, it's about selling new homes and bringing in crowds to spend money at the squares retail businesses. I understand the business model, the focus is catering to both the next generation of potential homeowners as well as attracting non-Villagers to come to the squares (who are younger crowds). I personally don't like it, but it is a reality that no one on TOV can change.
