Black-Eyed-Peas, the future of modern music?


I saw the Black Eyed Peas in PA last night and all I can say is WOW. The whole production was over the top with a futuristic Science Fiction vibe. The music was like no other with so many influences its hard to classify as any one style.
The bottom end literally moved my hair and clothes.
The audience was a wide variety of fans. Many parents brought their children, 10,11 years old. The crowd was white, black, Asian, young, old (me) and happy.
I recommend you go see this show when the opportunity presents itself. It is history in the making.

I find that culturally significant music has the ability to get you up and dancing. IME, this may be the critical difference between thriving genres and dying genres.
In my opinion, the future of modern music will be as diverse in the future as it is now. The Black Eyed Peas is jusr one band that is paving the way.
I was focusing on the live performance aspect of this band. They are breaking new ground with this current tour's production presentation. It hasn't been done like this before and could be quite possibly the wave of future.
But if the only acts that can afford to put on shows like this are pop bands for 12 year olds then what's the point?
