    Kinda love the senior citizens rocking out to GNR's "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" at Trump rally right now.

        They know the end is nigh for them so why not be nihilistic and dance to song about a place they wont go and dont really believe in.

        That's not what I was getting at. Wasn't thinking about the juxtaposition there. Just kind of liked seeing older folks enjoying themselves to the music of my youth.

        I think the cool thing about music is that it often can speak to all of us regardless of our ideological views or where we're from, where we've been or where we're going. Radio stations play the same songs in New York and L.A. as in Omaha, Butte and Elkhart, Ind.

        Oh absolutely, its just hard to remove the context of whats happening when my level of contempt is sky high. I do better on cruises with karaoke, I swear. No chop busting.

        Because it's fun to see people who were already adults when the song came out enjoying it as an oldie

        The thing that doesn’t seem so fun is that a lot these people are probably racists and have unkind thoughts about African-Americans and immigrants. Like over half of them?

        Axl Rose is 56 years old, which would make him a senior citizen

        One of two covers GNR did better than the original. Since you asked, other was Sympathy for the Devil.😄🎸 (coming from huge Stones fan)

        That and “You Can’t Always Get What You Want”? I’m starting to believe that Trump rallies really are a set up for the ultimate “The Aristocrats”
