The problem with the industry today is too much emphasis to put on image rather than talent. There are lots of talented musicians out there but there don't get a look in beacuse they don't have the right image. In terms of rock music lets take a look at my favourite band Alter Bridge. Their last album ABIII which was released in 2010 recieved critical acclaim but only reached #17 in the Billboard 200 and none of the singles from the album made any headway in the Billboard Hot 100 or the chart here in the UK. More recently Mark Tremonti's solo album again recieved critical acclaim but only reached #29 in the Billboard 200. When it comes to rock music bands and musicians don't do it for chart positions they don't for the love of rock music and it's not just rock, musicians in general make music because it's what they love to do (at least they should!). In terms of new bands I think they will still be able to land gigs and guitar makers won't go out of business beacuse rock will always have it's place within the music world, however for at least the forseeable future the popuality en-masse won't be there with the rise of music talent shows and girly teens obsession with a certain teen from Canada amongst other musical lowlights of the past decade. In other words don't worry rock is not going anywhere and you may have to look harder for it, but it will always be here.
