Alter-Negro

A black person who does not act like a typical black person. This person is usually always up to mosh and likes hardcore bands. Often referred to as white washed.
The name came up because the first people in punk rock were actually black. So they arnt black people turned white. They are another form of a black person.
" Look at that black guy in the mosh pit. Hes so white washed."

Adult Alternative

Adult Alternative; See "Adult Contemporary".

This is basically the same stuff as Adult Contemporary.

Again, these are watered-down blah tunes for those who wish to think they're just too darn mature to listen to some good music and/or are afraid of offending someone by playing something more hip.

Can be viewed on VH1 or heard on your local easy-listening station.

The musicians of Adult Alternative bands are said by some to be down-to-earth individuals who dress modestly and are the kind you'd run into in a supermarket.

Sad...
Bands such as Coldplay, U2, Nickleback, Lifehouse, Maroon 5, Dave Matthews Band, etcetera fall under the Adult Alternative genre.

These bands and this music are NOT to be confused with actual genre known as "Alternative," nor should it be confused with Grunge or Indie music.

That festival we went to last weekend was great! All the alternafolk came out to play - there were some really weird looking people there.

I really like visiting my sister, her city is full of interesting alternafolk.
