"My brother is 8 years older than me, and I will be forever grateful to him for accelerating my love of music at a critical time in my childhood. But I've noticed he shows no interest in current music, saying that it is all crap now, etc. He has entered what I call the "Museum Period" of his life. Everything he needed from music was met when he was young, or so he thinks, so he just keeps going back to those classic pieces of popular music, and the present just doesn't work for him at all. "
That makes him 63. Do you think that it's "normal", or "abnormal", for the average person of that age range to feel more comfortable, and be more relaxed and happier listening to, music that he's familiar with, rather than "exploring"?
It's unbelieveably wrong for you to use the term "Museum Period" with regard to your older brother's musical tastes. That was completely disrespectful and unnecessary. Clearly, you have no respect for your brother's insight and thoughts.
