damn this music industry! music is a force that flows through everyone and unites everyone, a pox upon anyone who would dilute this pure spirit into a 4 minuit "product" fronted by a cosmeticall altered, vocally uninspired moron who receives celebrity status for their apperance alone. i'm continually assalted by the regimented marching beat of the electric drum kit, everything in sync (n-sync and belive me it does stink), everything in tune (appart from the singing). music is not somthing that comes out of a factory! it is not and never shall be an industry! has anyone else noticed how many great musicians lose it when they become famous? lose their talent, lose their edge, lose their desire to progress what they do? i want to engage with music in a way more involved than uncomfortably swaying to the music and obeidiantly clapping at the end! the man playing the sax is no more a part of the music the the man dancing in the audience, music is all about being part of shared experiance, comunicating without words!
