I agree completely, to the point that I refuse to listen the radio at all, unless is Mark Radcliffe or Mark Lamarr, I think the loss of dear John Peel, finished me off, that was like a big gust of fresh air, and I missed him so bloody much. The two Marks are Ok, but of course since they don't play that much mainstream shite, their programs are so late that I hardly manage to listen them, cause I fall asleep.
The music industry these days is awful, there's nothing interesting for me anymore, I just rely in my favorite bands or artists, hoping they continue at work, releasing great records to keep me going.
So please Boss keep going cause your one of the great few!
Yeah i agree mark radcliffe or mark lamarr are pretty good at what they do! I think I should have mentioned in my original statement that i didnt mean all radio and t.v - this was a bit of a genralisation in my monent of anger! Radio and t.v is pretty bad these days with the exception ofcourse of jools holland , culture show, radio 2, bbc 6 music,e.t.c.... and the old t.v/radio shows that are forever remembered!
I think the internet has brought millions of fantastic signed and unsigned bands into the limelight over the past few years and will continue to do so - but theres so many its like sivving through a giant shit storm, and no new bands are makin' any money unless they tour there arses off cuz you can download there music for free illegally off the net!
Im in a band and im totally skint!
