Yes, spot on Col on that one. True musicians like most genres of
music provided the players are competetent.
Oh no they don't, Dave. Believe me; I know a lot of professional and
semi-pro musicians. They will certainly appreciate the technical
competence of the muso's while at the same time finding the style not
to their liking one little bit and making fairly rude remarks about
it. This also applies to playing where professional muso's may have
to play stuff they basically despise simply to earn a crust. It's a
precarious existence and one I'm glad I'm not good enough to have to
deal with.
In fact I made a vow as I got older not to criticise modern pop music
as my parents did with the Stones etc. I don't like a lot of it but
it doesn't mean it's bad or young people shouldn't be allowed to. Pop
music is all about being a teenager and probably in love and things
hit you in a different way then. Those were the days!
Yes they were. :-) Being ****ed at parties with wall-to-wall
crumpet. But why do you get sixty-somethings who are still besotted
by The Beatles? Pathetic!

Tudor, could you please a proper new-reader or at least do something
about quoting properly so that we don't have to guess as to who is
saying what?
