For example I love to tell my rock/blues guitarist friend how Depeche Mode regularly sell out stadiums when they tour. Or I talk about real musical pioneers like Vince Clark. I kill 'em w/kindness and a healthy dose of undisputable facts and I watch their faces twist in agony, lol!

Buy them an essential new wave CD(or make one) and give it as a gift for any occasion. I actually did this as a teenager(with tapes) and some people really did start liking the music or at least gave it a listen.

I actually got a hardcore heavy metaler to listen to new wave and punk, and he became a big fan(although he didn't really share that with his friends).[8D]
