The state of Rock music in the big 2026.
The state of live music on the whole, you mean
whats the problem
>>130366171artists getting forced into poverty from the one thing they can do that makes money, i'd guess
>>130366176you shouldnt make a living off of dictating culture if it doesnt benefit the future of the state
If only the (((industry))) hadn't killed rock music to push DEI propaganda...
>>130366237Rock killed itself when it decided Creed should be big.
>>130366140These bum ass niggas can't afford to sleep in a motel?
>>130366140>living in temporary ascetic conditions to travel the country doing what you love and having interesting stories to tell later in life>this pisses of angry channers for no reason
>>130366354Oh yeah the time you crashed in the smelly upstairs of some shithole venue with no furniture and piss-stained bedding is totally one for the history books, truly legendary
>>130366484And what are you going to have? >”I spent my one life getting pissed off on 4cha- *realizes he isn’t talking to any grandchildren because he never reproduced*”
>>130366508I'll have the memories of sleeping in a hotel after playing gigs because I'm not a brokie poorfag
>>130366484It was for Black Flag.
>>130366549This is an anonymous imageboard. What are you trying to prove?
>>130366222ok Kim Jong Un
>>130366549Find it hard to believe anyone would pay money to hear you play slop
>>130366237guys like cobain and corgan killed rock... they may have been talented, but they started the pussification of the genre... the kids still want sex, drugs, partying etc in their music, and when they couldn't find that in rock the rap nogs were more than happy to step in to fill that void because they aren't betas like the whining 90's alt rock faggots and then the indie and emo faggots that followed them
>>130366354Im not pissed, i think OP is dumb>>130366222Idk wtf does this even mean Its so nonsensical itSounds funny though>>130366237Rock got less funding because of its artistry, its less capable at being mass produced, the industry heards want mass production of slop.
>>130366908The Velvet Underground were the genesis of indie rock and they were popular in the NY scene as a party band.
>130366222chud fatigue is hitting
>>130366237But you incels keep telling me DEI is dead now that your orange pedo-in-chief is in office?
>>130366140Rockers sleepin on the tour Van is nothing new... where tf have you been? Thats how a lot of bands passionate about music start. Especially if they are young and want to make it
>>130366176Never heard the AC/DC song?
>>130367397They can't afford a tour van.
>>130367513Then how are theu touring? The article says "to make touring work" they are traveling on Ubers? Van is the cheaper option it has always been.
>>130366140>"just buy a house"
>>130366176>from the one thing they can do that makes moneyalbum sales? concerts exist to promote album sales after all
>>130366140>4 obese brown homeless guysOh honey rock is SO back on the menu
>>130366140>RockThese niggas look like they play stomp clap hey
>>130366140Hardcore bands in the 80s usually lived in abject poverty but they still toured for the love of the game. It filters out the part time posers.
>>130366315rock didn't decide that, boomers record execs did with payola
>>130366908This baboon is a 3rd worlder if anyone's curious
csb: I worked at a club in Houston, you could fit 300 people in there I suppose, about twentty years ago and came in early to help setup sound eq. There was a lady sleeping on the pool table. Turns out it was Mary Timony, well into her solo years after Helium disbanded. I asked when she wanted a wake-up call and she said 30 minutes before show time (so 7:30). I told her that her solo work was really great and hopefully more people will come to see her.She's been my online pal ever since.
>>130366612black flag sucks
>>130370784babbys first shitpost
>>130366140Where did musicians get the idea they deserve a living wage? Nobody has ever made money off of music except for like 1% of them at any time. It's hobbyist at best. These people are just afraid of getting a regular guy job. 'Influencers' have the same problem. They are deathly afraid of working at an office.
>>130370727Yes, rockist boomers at rockist labels who actually thought that trash was good, ignoring all feedback to the contrary.
>>130366140They don't look like a rock band.>>130367535They can't afford the gas to the van because DRUMPF
