Ten things I Don't Get in Music

These are things that I don't necessarily dislike, nor necessarily hate, just thing of which popularity or appeal I absolutely completely don't get.

1)Nickleback
2)the Red Hot Chili Pepper's "Give It Away"
3)80's music nostalgia
4)Steely Dan
5)Why the same 5 or 6 Pink Floyd songs get played over and over again and people still want to here them
6)Why, out all the good Alice in Chains songs', the only that gets played is "Man in a Box"
7)That David Gray tune ("Avalon")
8)Why people care about Aerosmith
9)Why DJ's think it's more important that they talk over the music than actually playing the music. Like anything a DJ could say is infinitely more engaging than say the intro to Baby O'Reilly
10)Why the Bone thinks it's really cool that bands they play on their station are about to play at Konocti Harbor or a county fair. Shouldn't that tell them something?
