"Well in the 70's during the whole disco thing, there were several disco revisions of classical music. It wasn't really good, but it was a revival of sorts."

"Hm. I'm thinking a grunge come back would have to occur during a tumultuous, ever changing time in society. Nirvana and Pearl Jam came along near the turn of a century, when a new generation needed a voice. Of course, that generation was deemed slackers so a voice might've been too much energy. Still, I think there'd have to be another generation change to provoke a grunge come back."
After listening to several other people, Izzie grins. "What about music from the 1980s? Silly, glossy electronica stuff. I suppose there'd have to be an economic upswing, a decrease in world violence and just a general lack of taste in fashion."

"Sadly not, my good TA friend. Earl is nowhere to be seen, but Rufus says to hang out here and I'll hear something. Rufus is usually right. How'd the class go, dude? Sorry for dumping it on you at the last minute."

"Not a problem, sir," John says. "I'll be hoping Rufus brings good news. Only exciting event was that there was apparently a Twinkie thief in the class. I haven't figured out who just yet."
