Statler, Waldorf, and Elton John

More proof that Elton John is becoming just another crotchety old man: he's ripping on "American bands" because he doesn't like their style. In a giant step backwards from breaking down gay stereotypes, John noted that he loves the glam rock look, essentially saying that he wishes American rock bands would drag it up a little. I do have to concur with him that nose rings and excessive tattoos (Tommy Lee, I'm looking at your horribly disfigured self) aren't exciting and aren't attractive. However, I can't get behind the idea that more bands should start sounding and looking the same, just in a different and tired way. Elton, retire to the balcony to boo with your fellow Muppets!
