I can see the current interest in dub step actually providing the way to more industrial-style grunge. I've always been interested in industrial music and think it's just great sound.
Every 5-10 years a new trend comes out and influences that generation for the next half-decade. 1995 - 2000 it was more like trip-hop and roots-rock. It'd be nice to see trip-hop, funk and industrial get a real boost if not mainstream in the next 3 years.
I'd love to jam with a band and do some old-school circa-'77 garage revival rock.
Something like early Aerosmith or Stones where they were all in the room together. I actually wonder whether you'd be interested in Keith Richards' first solo album or Joe Perry's 2009 one; they've got that sound.

Just thought I'd give you a sample of Rockklassiker. These are the five latest songs.
^ The more successful decent festivals are (and not this dance-crap this Skrillex guy thinks is any good) the more it shows promoters and bands people still love and want to enjoy live music.
Down here, I think in the last five years 50% of small venues have closed or not able to do live music due to restrictions. The ones that are still able to just don't get the bands or have to shut it off by 10pm.
Wait - Hotter Than Hell by KISS. Hahahaha!!! Best left unsaid, although Alive! kicks some serious live (but is it live?) ass.
