Sorry to say music here in TV barely breaks into the 80's, let alone the 90's. There are a very few that play a some newer music in their later sets. But not many, much to my dismay.

Many villagers are closed minded and have no tolerance for newer music, and think they stopped making good music in 1980.

They want all the old crap over and over. I love newer music, including some of the bands you named like Metallica.

I've talked with quite a few people who feel like I do and don't go to the squares for this reason. But TV entertainment is afraid to try anything out of the box. With 4 venues playing music 365 days a year you would think they would have some newer music once or twice a month.

I've even talked to the TV entertainment group about this when they set up a booth at the square. But i don't think they care that they're ignoring a large group of people that would enjoy more variety. Good luck and let me know if you find a band that fits what you want.
