WTF,I just don't get it

So I went out last night with 4 other guys ,all much younger than I,for our city's annual Mardi Gras party.We went to 4 different bars and at every single bar it was nothing but hip-hop,hip-hop-and more hip-hop.

Now granted I'm 44 and I saw more than a few people in my age range at each of the bars but what I don't get is wtf is up with these DJ's who play nothing but hip-hop?

I understand the bulk of your customers are into it but there are some of us who would like a little old school or even new rock thrown in from time to time.

Even when I requested a song,it's like,"I don't know man,I'll see if I can get to it."

As a former mobile DJ myself I always let my customers pick the music and although I didn't always agree with what they wanted to hear it wasn't my place not to play what a customer wanted.

I'll stop rambling now,it's just I really hate to think about quitting going out but this is getting really old and maybe therein lies my answer as I'm getting older too and it's either deal with the new or open my own rock-n-roll bar.
