"This won’t be the situation forever. With the lack of revenue in the music world, the posers are going to move on and the real musicians are going to take over. There just isn’t enough of a reward if you’re not real, you’ve got to love to play! And these unfettered players will concoct genuine songs that will elate us when we hear them. The big bosses won’t be controlling them, because the big bosses will be gone.
It can only get better.
But to blame today’s sorry state on the customer is a grave mistake. Sales suck because the customer thinks new music has got the nutritional value of a Twinkie, it’s like minor league baseball, entertaining, but not the real thing.
The real thing is the Beatles and all those ancient bands still treading the boards in sold out arenas. Most of whom can no longer write a decent tune, they’re so concerned with managing their money. But what inspired these people can inspire a whole new generation. It’s about the sound! Music is something you hear, not something you sell! Got that?"
lol @ this guy not being able to let go of the Beatles and Led Zeppelin. He compares EVERY act out today to these two bands.. oh and Don Henley for some reason. I guess its fair to try and compare new bands to the old greats.. but i mean.. Led Zeppelin fucking started FM radio! thats as if 50 cent invented mp3s .. craziness
