I'd like to say that I don't mind people being in bands that are inevitably shit (which they, this is a fact I'm afraid) so long as I don't have to see them. As it happens, I'm going to see a band this evening who are thoroughly decent chaps, genuinely very fun people, whose music is unspeakably dire, possibly the worst I can think of. They have recently signed quite a tidy record deal. It's not great, and they can't give up their jobs, and they'll probably sell some records, but it is absolutely turgid bollocks. And will add to the shitpile. If I were in charge, I'd make sure all bands played where I wasn't going to be. My own fault for having too many mates in bands, but there we go.

I was with you, Rob (kinda) until you said "this is my America" and with that you pigeon holed yourself, therefore I'd find it very hard to believe you'll make a difference.

PROVE ME WRONG!

You're right, Bob. I think we need a new SEBADOH Album !!!(not a reissue)
Well, I 'm still looking for a new band as fascinating as the "old bands" I like. Quite difficult...

I agree about Heavy Winged, they put out stuff that is way better than that Dinosaur Jr album and Shellac in my opinion... rock is not dead, you have to look for it!

Music is dead.

I don't care that much if there aren't or there are any new good rock bands because I don't think that it is that important a thing. It's also because of the fact that the vast majority of exclusively rock bands are made up of people who generally don't go that far musically, anyway. The limitations in their music tastes and, sometimes, their mental shortcomings are their own worst enemy, so they disintegrate or simply reveal themselves to be shit quite early on in their career. Also, I have never been only attracted by rock thrills alone, so it's not like there aren't people out there who aren't making good records regardless of the state of rock music. I win by a large margin. I do.

that was a joke reference to what the fundamentalist christians always say, not to rock n roll.

I already learned manic Depression. ha!

I will find a way to rock anew. It will be glorious.
It is always about going back to the spirit of chuck berry. the stooges did it. the ramones did it.
