The Logic Off Topic list

>The beatles, stones and Led Zep, Clapton, etc were all from mostly " lower
>middle class" or "Skilled working class" backgrounds.

Its amusing that the Beatles had this clean image but were actually from 
lower economic roots, while the Stones were midclass but cultivated a 
street tough look. I had a female friend in high school who had been a 
groupie for Led Zep and she told me they spoke of grinding poverty too. 

I think its the same in the US, except the kids want to be sports starts 
instead of musicians - more money, more girls, and no need to carry a 
tune or be creative.
