A Conversation for Pop: What went wrong?
It Has Always Been Thus

There have always been ugly and talentless "entertainers" amongst
the bona fide rockers. And manufactured groups are nothing new, either; consider the Monkees.
I had to stop listening to popular radio some years ago because it so much exceeded my pain threshold. I suspect there must be music out there I would like if I could find my way to it. But the task is too daunting. >sigh<

Solution: find a used CD store, enter, and proceed to purchase eveything in sight. I find that's the place to get music that(in the words of annoying radio sports personality Jim Rome, who I could also write an article about) "doesn't suck." And if that doesn,t work, go find a band no one's ever heard of. Works for me.
