"the more they rail against it, the less I care to talk to them about music"
Thank God for that.  I imagine you also find deadmou5' repetitive "music" infinitely intriguing.  You're the type of person I like to curbstomp outside of bars.

…but then again, people in the '50s thought champagne cocktails and fins on cars were sophisticated.   ABC didn't exactly have the best track record for hit shows in the '50s either.

I know when I think of sophistication, I instantly think of the honky tonk piano stylings of Big Tiny Little and the brash dixieland clarinet of Pete Fountain….

"… but what had begun as a sophisticated party, a hoped-for mark of maturity and intelligence…"
Are you fucking kidding me?  More like a thirty minute ad for Welk's records on Coral, Dodge land yachts, and later… Geritol, the miracle pill that does nothing.  Welk's show is camp at its finest, but let's not make more
