It still remains the case that African-Americans don't really get into the same music as their white counterparts (though a lot of white youth do get into black music (e.g., hip hop). For example, I went to the Dylan, Wilco, My Morning Jacket show this summer and, despite a very large crowd, there were precious few, if any, blacks there.
OTOH, I went to the Mississippi Delta Blues Fest in Greenville, MS in September. There were upwards of 10,000 people there, only 50-100 of which were white (most of whom were young northern Europeans).
