Incase you didn’t know, I’ve decided to give I’m With The Band one last shot at stardom. This time however a few things are different, ie. we have a photo editor who will chase photo passes, and help the photogs upload / publish, and I have a contribution team who will basically write whatever they want to write about rather than sticking to some sort of editorial process.
Back to the topic at hand. One of the things I find really difficult with running I’m With The Band is that I have a fairly strong opinion when it comes to music that I like, music that I don’t like but still think has some value, and music that I think is just shite and should never be heard or promoted in any way, shape, or form.
So when I receive that ‘latest and greatest CD release ever OMG they’ve revolutionised pop like no other band before’ with an accompanying press release that reads similarly it’s a little hard for me to not just drop the whole package in the bin without even giving it a listen. This is probably not entirely fair, as I’m sure someone somewhere might like it, but tough shit…the music industry is a tough, and very unfair industry.
I think I’ve kind of lost my direction with this blog, so I’m going to leave it as is for now….. I might rant a little more at a later date.
