a thought...

Last night at work, I was talking to my buddy Daniel about radio and how I think it needs to change.

I started out by saying how much I don't like the White Stripes because it's overplayed and there is hardly any talent in the drummer chick. Sorry but she sucks. And for them to get sooo much airplay its ridiculous.

Anyways this lead to our convo on radio and how it should change. I told him it needed to change for all aspects of music. Why play the same songs over and over when anyone can get those songs with just a click of the mouse. What happen to radio being the source to let people in on some great music. Now it just plays the same old crap that they've been playing for over a decade. Nirvana, RHCP, Foo Fighters, Green Day, Linkin Park, Sublime... all that same crap. Ok so who that likes these bands don't have one of there albums... do they really need to hear Sublime 50 times a week... Any fan of Sublime would have the album. They don't need to hear it when they got the disc or mp3s.

My point is that the internet has opened up the music industry (while destroying it) but everyone that looks for new music doesn't have to go to the radio to search for the latest new music. They goto myspace, purevolume, or rhapsody... Why can't the radio be what it use to be. A source to hear new stuff. Why all the same stuff. What would it be like if radio had a station that played everything and anything they found on the internet. Would you listen more? or not at all because you would rather hear Nirvana 5 times in a day? Would you actually go to the radio to hear something maybe you never heard before... song after song.. .Would there actually be the need of a DJ to say who that artist is. I mean seriously do we need a DJ to tell us that was Foo Fighters or The white Stripes... are we that stupid that we don't know who Nirvana is.

We need the radio revolution for our generation.

We need diversity, which some say they are.

Embrace the internet music and make it on the airwaves.

When will that happen.

Want to be a part of the revolution. Make it happen. Post the picture above somewhere. Share with others.
