Every week, I read about brand new groups, opening up for
some thinly veiled, power pop, rehash clone of yesterday's boredom
I read in KEYBOARD magazine how the keyboardist of
BON JOVI likes to "warm-up" before a gig with a couple of verses of PIANO
MAN by Billy Joel
My Mom called me up and said she couldn't believe she was
watching HOOTIE AND THE BLOWFISH on MTV, and she liked it! She
said, "Its NOT rock-n-roll!" She also told me she bought the latest ERIC
CLAPTON CD
I've seen shows where ALL the music was
prerecorded on tape, thus freeing up the guitarist to set down his guitar, and pick
up a cowbell & drumstick, enabling him to boogie all over the stage like he's PRINCE,
or somebody
