I was just going through my collection, and I have not made any recent music purchase this entire year. Moreover, the last things I bought - last year!!! 2009!!! - were some Desert Sessions, Pink Floyd, Led Zep, and Steve Vai albums I didn't yet own.
So I'm wondering if I'm just missing something? Is there a lack of decent music tv/radio stations that entice me to invest part of my wage, or is there just no decent music? I seriously hope it's a lack of stations, as I'd like to start listening to some new music.
Am I really this out of the loop? I did catch some registrations of Pink pop, Glastonbury, and Rock Werchter, but I can't say any of the appearances shown at those festivals were at all inspiring. Muse were no better than OK, Gorillaz - meh, Snoop Dogg was crap. Seasick Steve was probably the best of them all... That says something. I hope it's a reflection of the fact that there are no people at the BBC, VRT, and NPS, that know anything about music at all. The BBC T in the park registration was hardly anything more than Edith Bowman drooling over Paolo Nutini
So, give me some pointers. Tell me where to look. I don't limit myself to genres, I'll fucking take anything.
Goddammit, I'm listening to the Eagles right now. Please come home for Christmas... HELP!
