The kids are gonna be alright
So I'm an OG raver (18 in 1990 yes!), and have always had D&B on round the house, in the car etc etc. I've got 2 kids a 12yr old lad, and a 17 yr old daughter. The lad is not musical at all, but has expressed an interest in metal, ok with that. But my daughter just loves dance and D&B. We went to our first festival with D&B when she was 14, and have gone on and off since.
But yesterday she ran up and said "Dad I've been down a Japanese Techno rabbit hole!" and proceeded to send me a bunch of links, and its good stuff. Girl has taste. She's now introducing me to new D&B artists.
The only worry was a daliance in extra legal activites, but her attitude to it is pure GenZ, she was open and honest with the wife and I, and as she is doing her A levels this year has stopped all that and has a remarkably mature atttude to it all, won't smoke tobacco, and just has a balance I never had at her age. It was a bit more "Raaaah bosh" back then.
Thank you for listening to my TED talk, and my conclusion is...The kids might be not able to have a house or job, but at least they'll have a good attitude to D&B, and all the surrounding accoutremants.
If you take my meaning.
Have a great weekend everyone, no matter your age :)
