- Here is a little food for thought written be critic David Browne of
- 'Entertainment Weekly' about the Clinton inaugural concert series........
-
-
- "It's ridiculous to continue thinking of rock as standing for anything it
- once did--rebellion, anxiety, teen hormonal frenzy, distrust of authority. And
- the rock inaugural is also definitive, saddening proof that rock 'n' roll is now
- merely music, merely entertainment...ready to be stuffed, mounted and enshrined
- as feel-good nostalgia for baby boomers."
