Bluemoon Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 FYI--this is a political free thread. So I was thinking that there might be an upside to the economic crisis we are in...which is that such events often lead to great rock music. I am thinking that this downturn will rid the world of this crap, pop, American idol, **** boy-band junk. The more pissed off youth is and the more they feel that they have very little options, the better the music they will produce. What do you think?

The Mick Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 I think it hard for kids to write on the rock band gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSG_Standard Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Disco was born out of the late '70s downslide. Let's hope that doesn't happen again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky4 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 I hope so. Cobain wasn't dead six months and we were hearing Matchbox 20 on alternative radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoConMan Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 So, that would be the downside to the upside to the downslide... New Music. Check out The Answer. 4 lads from Belfast, Northern Ireland. I haven't been this pumped about a new band in several years. They truly pay homage to all the 70's heyday bands like Zep, Bad Co, Aerosmith, and later stuff like the Black Crowes. The had the opening slot on the AC/DC tour. They got some money to get kicked off somehow, they did a couple videos that were pretty slick.

Carbonite Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 The upside is you can purchase a ton of stock in something really cheap and then be wealthy when the stock market shoots back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
