I'd rep you for this but I can't do it from my tablet. Excellent post.

I don't think those doodes manscape!

I like some of their stuff but this made no sense.

The difference is that the good music used to be popular. You always had the music that was trumped up by image and gimmicks, but for the most part, if your music was good it was popular and on the radio. Today's music is all about gimmicks and marketing. The best musicians don't necessarily ever become popular because they don't have the right look, right publicist, or a good gimmick.

FYP

That's cool brother...... Go Chiefs...

Too fat/everyone

Someone told me Zepplin and Rush had never won a Grammy? That's incredible.

It all started with MTV.

Remember when MTV played MUSIC?

Now they play bullshit because it makes more money than music.

Same scenario as what you are witnessing tonight.

Meh. Stop listening to local radio.

Big deal that I think the Black Keys suck. I don't like any modern rock at all. I think it all blows. But the beauty about music is it doesn't really ****ing matter what any of us think. We all have different tastes in music.

Ok, I have heard like 2 Kerry Udnerwood songs and besides the fact she is cute, what is her claim to fame?

The market is much more saturated with music...the digital age just changes everything...are there huge marketing machines propping things up? Of course.

But the musical landscape is totally different...genres are broken down it is easier to make music people can go to the far corners of wherever to find exactly what they like.

If you are annoyed because not all the good music is popular...well who gives a ****?

There is good music everywhere why do you need someone else to validate it?

The shifting music landscape does not mean there is not good music. It is actually the opposite.

What do you mean?

She is a musician.

Some people like her songs.

I don't. Strictly Sirius/XM. I should keep a notebook in my truck and write down the good songs I hear from artists I've never heard of, but I just totaled out a vehicle in an accident so maybe that's not such a good idea.
