GA GA Garbage

It has become evident that so-called popular music lacks a certain something. Oh Yea, MUSIC! Ya know, the kind where you actually pick up an instrument and create something? Not this pre-programmed BS that is so prevalent nowadays. Don't get me started about Lady GaGa. Pleez, hasn't snyone noticed that Elton John did this same thing long ago? Difference being he could sing and write classy songs. Now, I'm not a big Elton fan (Metal being my choice), yet this is clearly a mutation. Going further, it's not even about the music to this mutant, more a continual onslaught of "discrimination" claims by the previously mentioned weapon of ass destruction. Electronic this, glossed over production, incessant computer generated beats. Hell, any moron can sit at a PC and create this sludge. Talent doesn't seem to matter anymore. You don't hear much about the years of toiling and touring just to MAYBE get a break. Just about the corporate machine spewing this crap and others like it. But, not to worry. Just because it's not on the front page doesn't mean it's not happening. It still is. That's where you find the REAL stuff.It's called ROCK and ROLL! 50+ years and still going strong. Have faith. Ga Ga and her (his?) brand of crap will go the route of Disco and vanish like a fart in the wind.

  1. I think it always has been this way, isn't it called where are they now? Pop used to be bugglegum, hell spit it out! You really have your eyes open to find great (meaning, will be classic) music these days. I just happened upon 21-year old Davy Knowles, an opening act (not for long) who plays and sings the blues like a BB King, and has been called the next Clapton. Being in a very limited market really has its disavantages, but maybe has advantages also - less crap to choose from. Yes Have FAITH, please don't get me started on shitsco!
