Or bossa nova. These things are seldom heard in town squares.
Just because you don't like that music doesn't mean they shouldn't play it here. Do you go to every square every night? No. There's room for all genres. If it's not your thing, don't go there.

Music is very subjective, and TV is trending younger. What we're saying is we need more variety. Again, there's 1460 dates open every year. Mixing in some newer music would be nice.
Open your mind, it's healthy.

Change is good.
