music radio : IS ROCK&ROLL OFFICIALLY OVER? [+] ballot by Gizzmo created Thu Jul 27, 06 I mean, lately it seems the music world has forgotten the most important roots of music altogether...You know, the classic oldies but goodies bands that helped music progress...Now, it's either overwhelmingly crappy pop or rap s**t that doesn't even take real talent to create. Nowadays, there are few, if any talented musicians around worth listening to who are mainstream.....Back then if you wanted to be famous, you needed serious talent(Led Zepellin)...But, now all you need is a fricken recording studio and you're it!(Paris effing Hilton!!) Not only that, but it seems that attitude isn't even present anymore..It used to be: "Go to a rock concert and get totally crazy and still enjoy the show because the band is amazing to see!!!" NOW, it's just like: "Oh, I'm gonna see this person just 'cause they're here!" It seems like everything in rock and roll has been done by the way they're acting(which I don't beleive!!) One more thing that I'm concerned about: Old Rock musicians selling out their music to product companies for money...You all recall Led Zepellin having their song "Rock and Roll" being used in the cadillac commercials and countless other classic musicians using their songs for advertisements..And, recently, I just about wept when I saw the "Dancing with the Stars" commercial recently on ABC when they used AC/DC's "You shook me all night long" It's quite a shame...The only Classic Rock band I can think of that didn't sell out is Pink Floyd.... So, these issues beg the question:"Is Rock and Roll Officially Over?" What do you think? Yes, it's over because everything in rock has been done Yes, because music today has forgotten its true roots No, because everything in Rock hasn't been all done before No, it's just not appreciated as it used to be No, Music like that is no longer mainstream Nirvana killed it Ballot #98580 : SEE RESULTS Comment: show your vote with comment?
