Damn that’s just rude. You could have left him with only one mistake, but you had to take it to: “you really don’t know Shit about music do you?” Level. Ah, but what else are you gonna do with all the knowledge.

Besides if he’s young, these are basically all Before He was born.
It didn’t seem rude to me. It seemed like a teachable moment of a correction to someone that clearly cares.
Well nuance doesn’t come across. If you were both smiling then I give you the benefit of the doubt.
The interaction was truncated to fit into a tweet size, but it was a little more expansive than this
Close…I think Prince wrote most of that Morris Day + Time stuff
Only the first two albums (aka the two best ones).
Was the second song Total Eclipse of the heart?
yes
I was about 3 back in the line when he very enthusiastically said “Wow, Stevie Nicks! I love her!”
Yeah. I think it’s the video actually that creates the confusion
I assume you e seen the “Random use of candles, empty bottles and cloth video?”
