Not a fan of quitters. Better to try and fix the problems instead of giving up and quitting. The best ideas are due to a necessity to change and offer a solution.
How can you fix a problem like this? Its like banging your head off a brick wall.
Not a fan of how the music industry - run by people with little interest in music and dominated by the combined anti-christs of Clear Channel, Simon Cowell, Reality Shows and the like - has killed rock music as an art form.
As a 'consumer', the public reaps what it sows. No wonder proper artists give up when confronted with what the industry has become.
Christ knows what its going to be like in 10-20 years when the current generation of veteran artists, who established themselves before the rot set in, have gone.
Well then he can try creating a new way, his own label and signing up the old acts that have fallen through the cracks. Lots of excellent material that is old isnt being distributed at all anymore. People like Ian Mac Lagan, his old stuff cant be bought new,and there must be hundreds of others just like him out there that the industry lost interest in because its not new and fresh, pop hip-hop crap. Maybe not big money makers but important overall. Someone should do it!
