Im sorry, but rock'n'roll is still kicking, and always has been... it just wasnt popular on the radio anymore...
Although now (last couple years) there was a "revival" of sort with all the "The" bands... but even before that, in the 90's, alot of unknown band were still kicking it...
It just that old geezers like you who spend more time filling tax-returns than at seedy concert venues wouldnt have any chance to come accross it (especially not with that oldies station playing in the background).
I give you two examples, both are Montreal bands, both songs released somewhere in the 90s
http://www.drguile.com/temp/hurricane.mp3 - Tricky Woo - Teenage Hurricane (felt it was appropriate for this venue ;))
http://www.drguile.com/temp/sally_anns.mp3 - Local Rabbits - Sally's Ann
Not claiming this is better than anything, or saying rock'n'roll is better now than ever, All Im saying is good music is still here, you just have to look a little for it. (also saying some of you are old ;))
Edit: dammit, I meant dead...
