"The band's longevity has led them to be cherished even more with each passing year and tonight, the room is full of fans in love with its steadfast commitment to jangly guitars, distorted lead breaks and simmering harmonies."

The nostalgia market is huge. Any number of 60s, 70s and 80s artists are touring as you read this and there are countless opportunities to break out that barely fitting faded band t-shirt and go see the acts that made you. And now that we're well into the 21st century all those 90s bands are doing the same.
