 SUPPORT YOUR BLUES MEN AND WOMEN
bulletbob writes Bands come and band go. Yep, that's the truth. But the blues guys always remain. Why? They're not out to rip off anything. They just love to play from the soul and have a good time and they don't care if they "make it". As far as being famous or rich, it's a long way to the top if you wanna rock, but it's a lot more fun at the bottom. Really give a listen to these bands and support their shows 'cause you can always learn something new and borrow fromt the blues - as we all have. So give something back and give your support to the blues. Thanks - Bullet Bob

I agree, but there's more to playing than just the blues. Indeed, it gave us everything we know to produce rock. Blues has been and always will be the foundation upon from what rock is and what will always be. But the "more fun at the bottom" (doing blues, that is) I slightly disagree with...

It can be ust as fun "at the bottom" playing rock...I mean c'mon man... a true music lover, be it a symphony violinist, classical flutest, or country drummer, or a scottish bagpipe player can ALSO be at the bottom of the heap. But that don't mean they can't be at the top of their game...that all depends of the kind of "mind game" one chooses to be in.

Summary:
No kind of music could ever be cosidered dead, if it's alive in one's heart.
