It is pretty wild to consider that Millennials are now entering their 40s and no longer hold the mantle of the young and up-and-coming generation. According to Pew Research, Millennials were born between 1981 and 1996, so these days they range between the ages of 29 and 42.These are the years when people begin to settle down, start families and experience the first uncomfortable signs of aging.The Holderness Family is headed by a Gen X couple, Kim and Penn Holderness, who are best known for their viral comedy songs. Their latest video is about welcoming Millennials to their next phase in life, one that’s less about spending all night in the club and more about embracing a quieter, more practical life. In this case, “the club” isn’t a loud place to get a Long Island iced tea but a state of mind where you’re more likely to appreciate a good walk for your mental health.Holderness Family Music has over 797,000 subscribers on YouTube and over 230 million views since they started their page in 2011. They “create original music, song parodies, and skits to poke fun of ourselves, the world we live in, and (hopefully) make you laugh.”Welcome to the millennial club. Membership is mandatory!The "Welcome to the Club, Millennials" video is a bit of a departure from the usual intergenerational bickering we’re accustomed to seeing on social media. Instead, Gen Xers open their doors to the Millennials entering the next phase in their lives. “Well, Gen X is here to say ‘don't be bummed, come on in, welcome to the club,’” Penn raps.According to the song, if you’re a Millennial and have done any of the following, you’re officially in “the club,” whether you know it or not.​Hung a calendar on your fridgeHave strong opinions on who’s the best “Jeopardy!” hostPlay WordleWore reader glassesDrink seltzersHad Gen Z call your clothes “vintage”Gone Christmas shopping in OctoberHad a three-day hangoverGone to a movie theater because it serves foodTook a mental health walksBought a chair for your backGrooved to supermarket musicOwn plastic houseplantsTaken supplementsSaved money for a Disney vacationHave zero f**cks to giveStill love Blink-182Millennials who are a little leery of aging should be happy to learn that they may be in the happiest times of their lives. According to developmental psychologists, the period of life between ages 30 to 45 is known as “established adulthood” and is a time of life when people are happiest.Even though people in this age group are stuck in the “career and care crunch,” where they are likely to juggle a job while caring for children or older relatives, this developmental stage is also very fulfilling.“Yes, people were feeling overwhelmed and talked about having too much to do in too little time,” Clare Mehta, Professor of Psychology at Emmanuel College, wrote in The Conversation. “But they also talked about feeling profoundly satisfied. All of these things that were bringing them stress were also bringing them joy.”This article originally appeared on 5.01.23

In the wake of Oasis’ announcement that they will be touring England and Ireland this summer resellers have had a field day increasing concert ticket prices. Oasis reunion tickets have been offered for as much as $8,000 on resale sites. Official prices for the 17 scheduled U.K. and Ireland concerts range from about £70 to £200 ($90-260) for seats, about £150 ($200) for standing and around £500 ($650) for premium packages.

It seems like an election year tradition: Rock acts complaining about the unauthorized use of their songs at political functions. They claim the playing of their songs at events implies support – which is often not the case. Bruce Springsteen, Foo Fighters and Neil Young are but a few of the performers who have lodged complaints or taken legal action. Skillet’s John Cooper has a different viewpoint. “I don’t care who plays my song at their political rally, because I believe in America over party. I believe in the foundations of this country,” explained Cooper during an On The Road To Rock podcast. “Let’s say that you’re running for president, and you’re playing my song, and let’s just say that I don’t like your platform,” Cooper added. “I can always go on social media and say, ‘Hey, I wanna make it clear, this dude may be using my song, and I’m happy for him to use it. It doesn’t mean that I’m supporting his presidency, but I love America.’  ### The post Skillet Is Fine With Politicians Using Their Songs appeared first on RockinTown.
