Thanks for your response. I noticed that you list the knowledge of the subject of rock and roll as "preferred." It seems to me that it should be required. Also, I believe, that if you are going to require such detailed specification on library certification, you would expect the same when it comes to knowledge of the subject matter.

Just curious…but don't you think you should make an addition to your qualifications…namely some understanding and/or appreciation of rock and roll as well as some general knowledge and background in music…
