Rhinestone Suits and New Shiny Cars

It’s the same old tune, fiddle and guitar
Where do we take it from here
Rhinestone suits and new shiny cars
We’ve been the same way for years
We need to change

late great (Waylon Jennings)

Modern Day version of song:

It's the same old tune, lack of quality fiddle and guitar
Where do we take it from here
Skin tight leather pants and john deere tractors
We've been the same way for years
We need to change

What could we possibly give to get this man back. Still saddens me.
I think I could rewrite the whole song as it applies to our modern day mess. I don't understand it. You run across quality music from all walks in every independent way,shape and form...BUT WE DON'T HEAR IT?? Yes we get some quality music on the airwaves but for the most part it's meat. Strides have been made and continue too with the likes of XM,Cirius,and all the others. Oh and all the internet radio etc.. I realize most musicians are up against the corporate machine to the tune of Clear Channel,Infinity and so on. This may offend some but I'm not really worried about making everyone happy anymore. I realize if music makes you happy then listen to it. But I strongly feel that if you aren't capable of making wise musical decisions anything will sound good after a while. I know that's what radio is primarily about. Television included. Keep playing it until the masses like it. Just makes my blood boil. I'm not a music snob. Here's a good example...One night while attending a concert Steph says "I think you would like Jack Johnson"..Ok? Never heard of him? Guess what I did..I like all kinds of music and form my own opinions. I'm not saying that your opinions are wrong...but come on people there is a lot of crap out there and it remains there because we feed the machine. I know I don't stand a chance in probably even conveying what I'm trying to say. I know most have already tuned me out. There is a bright side to all of this slander. Can you imagine going to say a Big and Rich concert. I can visualize the combined education level. I'm glad when I decide to go see a show for the most part I don't have to deal with morons. Yes you will encounter a few now and again. Ok enough ranting. Sing along.
