Can't quit your day job if you don't have one

The difference between Venus de Milo & the ceramic angels you get at Home Depot

People always ask me why I say that nobody’s listening.

To break it down as quickly and as simply as I can, I will say four words: Radio. Killed. The. Music.

I’m sorry, but I refuse to believe that everyone wants to hear the same ten songs on the hour every hour every day…except Throwback Thursdays or Smooth Soul Sundays. Lame. I think that some people forget that music is an art. Art is supposed to be talked about, questioned, bother you, what have you. Look at the Mona Lisa, the Sistine Chapel, American Gothic. All of them make you wonder why. There are “masterpieces” like that and then there is the painting of strawberries you see at grandma’s house above the trash can or the “Mountains of No Place Particular” at your dentist. Yes they’re technically art, but no one gives a shit about them…they’re just there to look at. Both artist got paid and both can claim to be painters, but who the #^@! CARES about the latter?

I guess what I’m saying is, “Music TV” sucks. The “Station Where Hip Hop Lives” sucks. And, yeah, Miley Cyrus is nice to see while you read the newest issue of Dentist Office Waiting Room Weekly, but no one’s gonna plan a trip to Italy or France to see her…

As Always…Thanks for listening…
