]]> Comment on The Demise of the RockStar by Buckshot George http://www.dhcountrymusic.com/the-demise-of-the-rockstar/#comment-7 Buckshot George Thu, 27 Mar 2008 21:33:06 +0000 http://www.dhcountrymusic.com/the-demise-of-the-rockstar/#comment-7 I don't know that we lack innovators right now but I think technology has created a lot of static in the background. There is so much music out there right now. It's cheap to record it, it's generally free to release it(streaming on Myspace or whatever) and it's equal exposure for everyone. Everyone has a Myspace page, even for their bullshit side project or band they had 20 years ago that played one show in a rented bingo hall. This is great in theory, just being able to have it all available in case you want to hear it. Like I checked out the Simon Stokes tribute page recently. Very rare early 70s obscure biker rock guy I'd heard about for years. Hell, now I can get in touch with the man himself on Myspace! I'll probably never find a copy of that album but now he has a MySpace page and I can hear his music. Ten years ago, I'd have to hit every swap meet in the country to find it. But with all the saturation going on, it is very hard to find the really good shit. And like yourself, I listen to so much old rock. The Skynyrd, The Stones, glam rock, punk rock, etc. I mean if something truly fresh and innovative were played for my ears that are so tuned to 60s and 70s sound, I probably would not like it. I just like rock n roll. I don’t know that we lack innovators right now but I think technology has created a lot of static in the background. There is so much music out there right now.

]]> Comment on Why E-Zines Won’t Review Your Band by Buckshot George http://www.dhcountrymusic.com/why-e-zines-wont-review-your-band/#comment-6 Buckshot George Thu, 27 Mar 2008 20:46:48 +0000 http://www.dhcountrymusic.com/why-e-zines-wont-review-your-band/#comment-6 Good stuff. One of the big problems I have with reviewing music is when I have a connection (some kind of friendship as generally that's how I find out about artists) and then the CD cannot be considered anything but garbage and really they need to be going back to the drawing board and get the right musicians and WAY better songs. I couldn't possible tell the truth about that CD and hurt someone but I can't give it the glowing review they expect either. Someone very close to me lives for his own Commesso operation and is dumping a lot of money from his pocket into too. A lot. Dumping money on expensive pro mastering of a rough draft that should be for personal reference only and not released, not a good finished product. Bad idea. When he really needs to keep looking for the right people and work on it before entering any studio. Oh we need to get you a Jim Bachmann CD to review. That's a guy that can home record a highly listenable album on his home computer on the cheap (not super pro quality but good enough) Good stuff.
