I don't think it is any diferent for someone like you or I demonrail. in the 70's and 80's you and I wold both have searched for music outside the mainstream. what I think is, that without any mainstream, any side streams get lost in their own whirlpools.
music, like all art, cannot live and gow and change in a vaccuum. it must be mixed up with other musics, other arts.
it is just hard to believe for me that there could exist such a time as when metal heads, jocks, punks, greasers, kickers, etc. were ALL buying Thriller and all dancing and loving it. I lived through it as a 10 year old. I hope it happens again.
