Armed with my “media” credentials, my guidebook and my Metropass, I took on Canadian Music Week. (Note that all of the bands/artists that I mention in this column have Facebook pages, and are well worth further study, should you feel so inclined. It was a very busy week!)
Last weekend, I had the pleasure of seeing Mudhoney perform for the first time. In the subsequent review, I commented that “You’ll always love the music that you grew up with, the songs and bands that you discovered in your youth. “ It’s a notion that I kind of come back to time and time again. Being born in 1980, I began to notice the popular music around me in the early 1990s; the era of Grunge. And as I said in my review, I still love that music and those bands even today. As someone who is bombarded with new music, new artists and new bands on a fairly regular basis, it’s curious to me that I still love that genre 15 years later. And the music I love even now, likely bears more than a passing resemblance to the music that raised me.
