whats your job? making shitty hippie music?

Music needs something new, something positive.

okay, first of all, im not gonna rush any music because some old hags who have been half assing music their whole life tell me to. You wanna rush your stuff cool, and its going to be an instrumental only thing, tell me how am i gonna be positive with instrumentals? my name WAS made to piss people off. now quit judging how other people want to make their music and quit being bossy because you have a couple crappy demos uploaded. This site sucks because no one wants to have fun, its just a bunch of bossy know it alls who would rather boss around than learn.

. All i was trying to do is spread a little positivity.

Contradictory much?
So, how's that bipolar working out for you?

its called sticking up for yourself, surely you all know nothing about that.

Who you talking to, junior?

Hey, if it was my tunes you listened to, thanks. I didn't write them for snotty 22-year-olds with entitlement issues, so whether you like them or not makes no difference to me.

Wow, how did we all get into this shooting match? The guy DID make a valid point. Music is in a malaise right now, look at all the damn tribute bands that are making hay right now. It's like there's nobody putting out any fresh ideas, all rehashed or COPIED crap. We're living in the age of American Idol, where glorified karaoke singers become superstars. It's a joke. An age where "reality" TV is all the rage, in effect where the contrived "reality" shows should be called "make believe B.S. TV." I live in the Kansas City area, where covers reign supreme, and original bands can't make a dime playing their own material.
Whether this dude has or hasn't any tunes on his profile is immaterial to me. It's his goals that are more important. Maybe he can, hopefully, achieve them and come up with something different than the SOS we've been following for DECADES.
I, personally, even though I'm 55, am kind of in the same boat, frustrated by the lack of originality and people just wanting to do covers. THEY'VE ALREADY BEEN DONE. Are we mynah birds? Do we have any original thoughts in music?
I give the dude props for his initial thread. Whether he's immature or not doesn't really matter.

Thank you man positivity goes a long way to those who only have negative people to listen to. You get it.

Yes, and lyrics ARE important. VERY important. if the music is so loud you can't understand the words, DON'T SING.

Yes, this isnt rock related, but one of my favorite artists is hopsin, just because of lyrics. I dont even like rap, look up "Ill mind of hopsin 5"

Bob, you have three covers posted on your page. Where are the originals? Kansas City is no different than any other place. There are places that want cover bands, and there are places that want original bands. Go hang out at the places that have original music, meet some people, write some music that would work, and get that sh*t done.

Hell all i wanted to do with this post was maybe get to someone who DOES have fans, because artists can effect fans lives tremendously

Affect not effect. Seriously dude you come off like a petulant 14 year old.

its effect. english motherfucker, do you speak it?

oh and btw "fisherman bob" your covers are way better than that dudes original music lmao

MAYBE I'll post one or two originals here in the future. I've been performaning MANY for decades. When I record the CD, hopefully soon, I'll pick maybe two, as teasers, but I'm NOT posting more than that. I want people to NOT be able to download all of them for free. I want people to buy the CD, like I did yours by the way which is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED AND EXCELLENT. I long for the days of vinyl, when one had to buy the record, and NOT able to download everything gratis, like today, but unfortunately the cat has been let out of the bag. CD technology, with all its inherent wonders, has, in my opinion, set the efforts of creative musicians back in some respects, especially when it comes to making money off your work.

You stupid little dweeb it's affect not effect. You will go nowhere because your attitude sucks.
