No Nickelback shirts though. Haha. I liked their music but it became taboo to listen to them, long after I stopped listening to the radio at all. I believe the original of the Nickelback haters was a viral joke that gained critical mass. Sorta like all the Chuck Norris memes. Haha.
Funny true story from last afternoon. I go walking around my neighborhood almost daily, and it's common for all the young folk to blast their music loudly in their cars so I can tell exactly what it is. Based on where I live, I hear lots of country and rap. Well, last night, some dude in a Nissan was blasting Nickelback. You keep on doing you, son.
Never liked Nickelback myself, but I'm a big proponent of listening to what you like. Hair metal was mostly pretty bad in hindsight, but I still enjoy an occasional song in my Spotify mix anyways.
Reminds me of once at a hotel in middle-of-nowhere Ohio. My daughter and I were walking to next door to pick up dinner and some big dude drives by on a motorcycle blasting music. My daughter and I looked at each other, I'm trying to place the song - is that what I think it is?? Yes. It was "Let It Go" from Frozen.
There’s a video once I saw of my brother in law and his Machinist co-workers riding in a jeep lunch break. Now these fellas are all hunting, fishing, welding good ole boys. Two in the back seat were singing away. The song?? Marvin Gay “ Sexual Healing”. The main cut-up of the group was putting on a performance. Haha. I asked the driver just whose phone was had Marvin Gay on it. He said that would be my brother in law. The most redneck of the bunch. Haha.
I saw a girl wearing a Metallica shirt who when she didn’t know what Metallica was. She just liked the lighting bolts from the M and the A.

My daughter has a Metallica shirt too - I just made sure she knew who they were!
When she was four we drove across the border to Germany and I heard Highway to Hell faintly in the background. “Louder” she said from the backseat. LOTH looked at me with that “what did you do?”-look. I did the
Next morning I kid you not my daughter for her hand and says look what I can do daddy:
When my youngest (now 7) was little, like 2 or so, she always wanted to listen to music at bedtime. One night she was being picky about song choice and I jokingly said, how about "Creeping Death?" And even though she didn't know the song, she immediately said yes. After that, bedtime music was "Purple Metallica" (her name for the Ride the Lighting album) for about two years. It's a good thing I like that album.I saw a girl wearing a Metallica shirt who when she didn’t know what Metallica was. She just liked the lighting bolts from the M and the A.

When my daughter was dating her current husband, her future father-in-law bet her she didn't know a song from the early 80's. Unfortunately for him, he picked Tom Sawyer from Rush, both my children were well-versed in Moving Pictures. She didn't know Getty Lee's name, only that he was the ugly guy, haha. Once we were on a road trip during her college years, and she wanted to play some songs from her playlist, I resisted but she won out, it was all the music I listened to while driving them around when they were young, Rush, AC/DC, Van Halen, Pearl Jam, Def Lepard, and threw some Daughtry in there for good measure. Like you @Guido75, I thought "That's daddy's girl."I saw a girl wearing a Metallica shirt who when she didn’t know what Metallica was. She just liked the lighting bolts from the M and the A.

Early 90’s AC/DC Thunder Struck Tour in the Houston Summit, the cannon shot, I definitely lost some hearing there.
