Honestly, even if I do prefer the 60's music. I sometimes feel like there is a lot of Hacks that came from the 60's and some 70's. Bands that couldn't play for a shit but yet still became popular.
Yeah, I know you could say "That happens in all era's" there is no doubt about that. but, the grateful dead wouldn't have became popular if they're music didn't apply to that group of burn-out/hippies in that time.
If the grateful dead came out in the 2000? would they be even half the size they were? I don't know. I guess they're is a lot of poser hippies around now a days. I know music has to appeal to groups, but when it feels forced applied like Weezer or the teenage anger bands like Slipknot. It seems like a selling product.
