This is worth the watch. The reporting, the kids' dialog, its SO 80's.

In 1987 I would've been 31 years of age... so yeah, I though most (not all) heavy metal music was crap. Depended on who the band and what the song was.

Don't see dudes walking down the street with ghetto-blasters perched on their shoulders much anymore.

Nope, now they got those damn JBL bluetoorh speakers dangling from their belt loops around their knees blasting out WHATEVER the hell that is called.

I've never seen or heard of that. Are wireless earbuds passé now?

Cool, I love cultural snapshots. 100 years ago, the adults were probably saying the same thing about kids listening to ragtime jazz. "Jelly Roll Morton is the devil incarnate!"

Suicidal Tendencies did the line with, All I wanted was a Pepsi. They had a couple good songs. I figured that was 89-90.
