Are The Jonas Brothers The Band That Brings Rock 'N' Roll To The Kids?

[chicago]

103.5 Kiss FM has been hip hop\R%B for some time now
B96 as you said but they are getting more clubbish
V103-similar to Kiss FM
92.3-More up and coming but tends to play mainstream but not the stuff that is played 2 times every hour

KISS FM is more pop than anything (last three songs played were Justin Timberlake, Sean Kingston, and 3OH!3)
V103 is R&B and soul

Timberlake can be considered various genres depending on the song and who he collaborates with

My point being other than Q101, there is no main staple rock station

Back in the day it was rock 103.5 and Q101. 103.5 folded and you no longer had a rock station. On a good moon you'd get rebel radio and eagle rock but the station frequencies would change so often you couldn't follow them.

I agree with you there, but as for there being more than one hip hop station, nope. Justin Timberlake does not = hip hop.

 

[Korastus]

All robots playing their X-boxes, watching the dreadful G4 channel, sending messages on MySpace and walking around with obnoxious cell phones ringing all day.

Really? How old are you?

Theres nothing wrong with video games, as long as you don't devote your life to them.
Most kids aren't watching G4, because it isn't a free cable channel anymore.
I don't dispute your statement about myspace.
And cell phones make life infinitely more convenient. o_0

It's the new 'cool' thing to act smarter and cooler than your peers, didn't you know? "Adolescence is so passe."*


*I am guilty of doing this too, though hopefully not as obnoxiously.

Woah i didn't even see that in the first page

Honestly, what time are you living in?(not you korastus)

1. People of ALL ages play video games
2. G4 is entertainment at times esp if you want tech news and when the time of the year comes, new video game development
3. Do people even use myspace anymore? I thought FB destroyed them in the get internet meme war of two thousand aught nine
4. Lotta people have cell phones

I will say this, atleast theres no longer that crappy music vid channel(this is WAY back in mid 90s) that you'd call and for 1.99 get your video played. Some of the options were simply terrifically terrible.

Id also argue how many of the youth even listen to the radio now. I would think sirius and mp3 players in cars would take over for that. Hell, i rarely listen to FM radio unless i am looking for a break from my player. I tend to listen to AM more

My grandpa plays video games.

 

[Gothika]

My grandpa plays video games.

Sae's mom is a hardcore gamer.. has been ever since the days of green screen text games like "wizardry". She now has a room in her house dedicated to gaming complete with a home built racing station made with a bucket seat, steering wheel control and mounted pedals. The room is decked out with speakers that could make the walls shake. So how does being a gamer indicate age, anyways?

My grandpa plays video games.

You said you wouldnt tell.....

 

[chicago]

You said you wouldnt tell.....

Ha. You're not old enough to be my grandpa. I don't think...

 

[venray]

LOL Not yet anyway...

 

[Musicroxmysox]

The Jonas Brothers are another band in the long stream of making "kid friendly" pop like happy music.

Personally the kids would be better off listening to some real music.

Course idk, now a days I know just as many 10 year olds into old rock (The Ramones, Ozzy, The Rolling Stones, etc...) because they buy t shirts with their logos on it and then realize they should probably find out who the people on their shirts are.

 

[Bugman]

Rock 'N' Roll died in the mid to late 70's with a few exceptions.And it was hanging on by a thread even then.Just my never to be humble opinion.🙂

 

[Goodieluver]

Its hard to calculate Venray's age, the Mayan Calendar is ending soon

 

[starburstz91]

The Jonas Brothers aren't known as anything besides being a small, gay group, founded by Disney. They're not rock now, and they'll never be rock.

 

[xionking]

If by "rock'n'roll" you mean:

4 chords on repeat for a whole album, backed by terrible prepubensent vocals, a shockingly basic drummer and songs about saving your virginity until your at an age where your junk won't even wanna perform anymore, because it's too embarressed and ashamed to see the light of day, and it just doesn't really wanna get hard over screaming 9 yr old girls who have "tickles in their 'ginis".

If by "rock'n'roll" you mean:

Keeping it so clean, that your fans will remain niave until they are probably put into a social situation where they panic and say "Jonas Brothers didn't teach me about this!"

IF by "rock'n'roll" you mean:

Music that not only insults our intelligence, but also insults young children by marketing Jonas Brothers products in such a sexual manner, yet they apparently preach "no sex before marriage".

IF BY "ROCK'N'ROLL" you mean:

Three fagets who can't play live, who can't sing live, who can't perform live, whose audience wouldn't know a decent song if it came up to them and pricked them in their ears.

And if by "rock'n'roll" you mean:

Three boys who's musical talent and heaviness could be worse then Hanson.

If by "rock'n'roll" you mean all of this...

...then maybe you don't know what "rock'n'roll" is.

Yeah but NWBHM and punk rock is still alive and kicking \\m//

 

[Dussicar]

What the fuck? This thread just got too ridiculous to even pay attention to.

I don't have to be open minded about EVERYTHING, you know.

I think everybody in the world has a distaste for something whether it be pathological or irrational.

Like my fear of Zombies.

Or Zombie rappers.

...Or neo-conservative Zombie rappers.

 

[Dussicar]

BTW.

Is it just me, or do the Jonas Brothers look like people-shaped muppets?

 

[Whoviantrekkie]

I'm 19 years old and I despise the Jonas Brothers and all mainstream music for the most part nowdays. I don't know what constitutes as a "kid" in your statement, but I think some people on here would consider me a kid. The only somewhat mainstream band out there now that I consider genuinely good is Muse. I'm more of a 70's prog rock kind of person. Who loves the classics as well (As you mentioned Zeppelin and Sabbath.) Music is processed more than it ever has been before and it sickens me.

Funny story, my friend Mark who plays guitar in my band actually MET ONE OF THEM!! This was the story: So he [Whichever Jonas Brother this was] walks into the music store picks up a vintage Les Paul (Or least something along those lines I'm basing this story off memory of what he told me), plays a really sloppy sounding G note over and over again for like ten seconds, pauses and then says...I like it I'll buy it. My friend responds to this by saying "WHAT THAT'S A PRICELESS GOD OF A GUITAR AND YOU DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!!" *The Jonas Brother's response, "OH YEAH WELL...CHECK THIS OUT!! *He then proceeds to play the same thing one octave higher and smiles with a smug look on his face, buys the guitar and leaves.* He had no idea who he was at the time until he saw him while flipping on TV that night and coming across a self promotion on the Disney Channel playing the SAME GUITAR and saying "Oh yeah the guitar IS my life!"

My god what has music come to these days!

 

[Whoviantrekkie]

Oh yeah and most teenage girls whom he tells that story to tell him that he's obviously a liar who just craves attention by ripping on someone more talented than he is.
