I am with you on this. Bring some of the music into the 21st century. Oldies from 20 years ago are still Oldies. We didn’t stop enjoying music in the 1960’s.

The Morse Family will have expanded further south which will encompasses the Dade historic battlefield in Bushnell along 75. After making pease with the Seminole Tribes will build a Casino and instal a plaque commemorating the historic even.
Renovations will finally be completed on the Rialto Theater with gaming slots installed along with High Stakes Bingo.
Golf course T boxes will be replaced with Astro turf mats to stop people complaining.
High speed rail service will take villages to Orlando and Tampa Airports and yes people will still complain about arriving to early and waiting.
The Three town squares will be replaced with Costco, Super WalMart, BJ’s or Target. Overpass or tunnel will be places for golf cart access to Home Depot and Sam’s.
Repairs to the Morse Blvd Bridge to Sumter landing will continue with no firm completion date established pending engineering review.
The Recreational News will finally be available on line since residents will have finally mastered computers and tablets.
Retina scanners will replace gat cards.
Astroturf lawns will be allowed so there will be no need for large mowing machines or walk behind mowers as some people require

Flying cars were predicted to be in use by now back in the 50's 😃

"Oldies" music may still be the 50's & 60's, but it will be the 2050's & 2060's. If rap is the "new oldies, "I'll be glad that I'm dead.

They have flying cars sometimes, now at the roundabouts.

Likely, Florida will be a wasteland, all the coastal areas inundated by the rising ocean levels. New retirement communities will have opened in mountainous places like Tennessee and Colorado. Arizona and New Mexico will just be too hot to be inhabitable. Sound like science fiction. Well, it could be a reality if the U.S. and other polluting nations of the world like China don't take drastic measures to stop the inevitable climbing temperatures caused by Global Warming.

Today we are entering the final years of the baby boom generation entering retirement ages. The early boomers are dying off. The 2030s are going to be interesting years in the Villages.

We are the same age, and I can not think of many good groups from the 90's. Green Day was from the 80s. Maybe my Chemical Romance. What did you like from the 90's?
