    What do you think was a moment that defined Music History? I think that Nirvana coming into the music scene, was a great moment that defined Music. It killed the Hair Bands of the 80's and brought in a new style of music, Alternative.

    The Vietnam War (or conflict, if you prefer).

    things are quiet until hitler decides he'd like to invade russia
    so, he does
    the russians are like "OMG WTF D00DZ, STOP TKING"
    and the germans are still like "omg ph34r n00bz"
    the russians fall back, all the way to moscow
    and then they all begin h4xing, which brings on the russian winter
    the germans are like "wtf, h4x"
    -- WW2 for the l33t

    If you think more than 10 - 15 years back, the moment when Elvis was on telly
    and ppl saw him dancing was a big thing, maybe it didnt define the Music, but sure it did define atleast one thing:
    Sex Sells.
    Music with heavy dose on Sexuality seems to be the fuel
    on a lot of the so called Popular-Music these days.
    Not bad from a man who didnt write his own music.

    But defining one single event on Music history is pretty tuff question, i dont
    really know the answer, I only know the Music that define great turning points
    as I understand itself.

    Personally i dont think Nirvana killed any Hair-bands as
    you so respectfully claim, only thing that died was Mr.Cobain.
    And if i remember, their drummer had some hair too.

    Is there bands who really says they are Alternative any more? Or
    has the alternative music changed to something else?
    I ask cuz i dont know any and i like alternative music.

    Cheers:

    Elvis is really the man who did so much for music...Everything the man did was magic...I mean im not a great fan of his music but i respect him as a musician...He was the first white man to delve into the culture of the afircan americans and yeah he is one of the most recognised musical figures in history... Well thats my opinion...

    I agree with this and the invention of the guitar.

    think Elvis is higher on the list tho

    Not too fond of the music, but one of the most talented musicians ever.

    Did you know that Jerry Lee Lewis considered murdering him for having stolen Rock and Roll from the african-americans ?

    I would have to say when Bruce Springsteen saved rock N roll it was starting to turn retro.

    all I agree with the nirvana thing to
