Hey
Has she found it yet Tom?
There are so many celebs now. I'm guessing that at some point the public will grow tired of the plethora of talentless small stars, and hopefully they'll discover the thriving indie scene.
Stars in one shape or form are always going to be about. Who and what they are might shift, but they'll still be there.
We've come to expect that the Music industry is a particular entity (basically 5 or 6 Majors that own 99% of the rest), but the internet is levelling the playing field. Accessibility is the key.
Indie Music needs to re-invent itself, as an alternative Music business. The way Music should be. In the hands of those who make the Music.
There's few other careers in the world like this. How many hobby plumbers are there? How many of people spend years and years training, and investing for a career where making a living from your job is nearly impossible for 99% of the industry?
there's a shed load wrong with things, but I'm hopeful that over the next 5 or so years things are radically going to change.
Cheers
John
