I have zero interest in disco -- but I've always wondered why people dislike
it so much. It's supposed to be danced to, not listened to. Why would anyone
want to sit and listen to such fundamentally uninteresting music?


They dislike it because it is loud, repetitious noise, and listening
was often unavoidable just like 'Rap'.

I used to sell at a flea market on the weekends, and some ass would
set ut a boom box with a worn out tape of Cajun music and turn it up so
loud you couldn't talk to customers. Then he would scream, "Doncha al'
just love this ****?" Some people wouldn't listen to certain types of
'music' if it was their choice, and being forced to put up with it by
morons turns it into hatred.
