This reminds me of my mom. My parents live in an over 50 community (we warned them they'd regret that move!) and she always complains that the old folks listen to '40s music in the fitness room. :)
Elaine: you should convince them to change it to Howard 100 or 101. I'm sure no one would be offended!
I hope your parents don't regret their move to an over 50 community, because my husband and I love ours! It's a very ACTIVE adult community; not a lot of oldies here. We have a very active group in the fitness center and on the tennis courts everyday.
As for the music, it's just that one receptionist who insists on living in the waaaaaay past. At the New Year's party, the band got the most people dancing on tunes from the Stones, Doobie Brothers, Pat Benatar, Elton John, etc. Yes, it's "classic rock", not up-to-the-moment music, but at least it's CLASSIC. :D
The music we have is Satellite and they have programmed the pre-set buttons to "50's on 5", "60's on 6", "70's on 7", and "The Bridge". Unfortunately, the DJ on the 60's station is fixated on early 60's instead of late 60's. Oh well...
