Ahhh, thank you for the enlightenment NC, solid knowledge you have.
To touch on points you made earlier in this thread... first, I will be the first to admit that I don't exactly go out seeking great new music anymore, in the Myspace heyday I did (gosh, kinda miss it, found ALL kinds of great bands on MS)... but these days I'm pretty much relegated to local radio, my laziness I must admit. If you have internet you can still find music to fit a particular taste out there... my point, and I didn't make it clear, is that the mainstream music media has forgotten rock, there doesn't seem to be an appetite from them for it like there used to be from them... "meh **** it, we're still making plenty of money off the The Black Keys so why bother with anything else? And using TBK as an example doesn't make my tastes dated or narrow IMO, they're just OK in my book... not exactly what I consider rock, that's not to say that MY definition of rock is the be all end all, but I'd bet that I'm not alone in thinking that much of modern rock has been corporatized and emasculated. |

For me it was the NY Dolls and Lynard Skynard at what is now a christian bowling alley in Springfield.

That seems like a weird combo. Was the crowd receptive to both or were they there for the main act and not too jazzed about the openers?

Finally getting around to listening to their new album (on vacation without the amount of sitdown and listen without interruption time as normal). It's pretty great. Going to probably be too electric and produced for fans of Nirvana, but it's a fun listen. Will be adding it to my rotation.
And this is a pretty great and famous Future Islands moment. Holy shit... talk about unglamorously throwing yourself out there but it somehow working...
