Depends on how you define "generation"...consider the ticket sales referenced above and this list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_music_artists_in_the_United_States http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_music_arti... Most of the other 90s/2000s artists on the list are pop/country acts like Mariah Carey and Shania Twain that I wouldn't consider to be artists "of my generation"

Is "generation" a global term or country specific? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_music_artists http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_music_arti... DMB doesn't appear (Implying that they have <50 mill sales (but they have 32 mill US Sales). Linkin Park / Rihana / Coldplay all appear in the global list. Not to mention artists like Ayumi Hamasaki (Which from 1994-present) operated in roughly the same time span as DMB.

  Maybe not country specific but at least culture specific. There has to be some sense of shared experience for a generation or else its a pointless term.
