Now don’t get me wrong I have found a lot of great bands through myspace but I have found 25 terrible bands for every good one on there. I am so tired of “oh listen to my band we sound like (insert well known band name here). I want to listen to them not you think of your own way to make music and try to do it that way I will be more likely to give you a chance. And all the damn scene bands out there with their bright ass shirts and tight pants with big hair that don’t even know what the hell they are playing, just because you semi know how to play an instrument doesn’t by any means make you a musician. I just read somewhere that if you love music you love myspace and that bothered me as I love music but I love music for the music not music for the bands and how they look. If I never saw a picture of a band and only heard the music I would still make the same decisions about their music as I would have with a picture. I hope that one day all the little “OH MY GOD HE IS SOOOO HOTTTTT” and the “I play guitar and started a band we sound like this” kids will go away I want my scene back and I can’t wait to see who prevails after myspace.
