This is where I wish I could say the music industry got what it deserved, but that would be pretending there aren't cartels working hard to lock down live venues, ticket sales, and radio stations. It's still tough for musicians, and the industry keeps feeding off them like leeches. Some things never change.
Anyway! I'm sorry I took this on such a tangent. I'll go post some videos in the music thread that we can listen to free of charge and feel bad about.
