hi,

lately i've been looking into classic rock in a big way.
by 'classic rock' i mean late 60's through to early 80's.

and i can't help but think that if i was the age i am now back in say... 1970, i could have really made something of my musical ideas. right now i so desperately want to be in a band like The Doors or Deep Purple, there was such vision in their music, especially the latter. but besides that, that sort of music could really flourish back in that day, if a band such as the doors were to come on the scene today they would be no doubt stifled into submission. the only act thats around today that sings of that heyday is Wolfmother, but even they sound like a decomposed, tainted echo of the genre.

the depressing fact that by being in a band myself, i'm only adding to the problem of the modern music scene, because its a saturated market. simply put, there are too many bands. which relates back to the fact that back in the day of Led Zeppelin and co. such a thing was not so common.

the fact is that any band that does succeed in todays market has to conform to at least some degree, which takes out the personal, expressive ideal of music in the first place.

okay i'm blurring my points now,
but basically i've been reading alot about, and listening to classic rock music and i'm frustrated with todays choking music market.
...just a thought.

i want to be in a rock band in the 70's!!

thankyou goodnight
