It's a real shame the great unwashed masses won't listen to their intellectual superiors.

Rock and roll used to be about rebellion against the establishment. Rock artists of the 1960s and 1970s also created a vast library of relevant music that was exciting and groundbreaking.

Nowadays, probably due to the massive amount of money involved, most rock stars have whored themselves out to the establishment, to a most obsequious degree. Their music has become mostly vapid and formulaic.

It's sad to see.

Maybe they could play songs for President Retard’s campaign and preach down to people who don’t vote for him

I saw Clapton in Fort Worth a couple of years ago, great concert. The Dallas Morning News music critic wrote of his surprise that Eric made no Covid comments. I wrote to him and said, “Man, we were there for the music, no one wanted to hear politics. Eric knew that.”

He replied, “yeah, I guess you’re right.”

I think Bob Dylan said that it’s hard to maintain the common touch once you’re a millionaire. Or something like that.

Springsteen has always been vastly overrated and Mellencamp has always been a strutting little jerk. The only thing that made them the least bit listenable were their back-up bands. And now both posers are considered irrelevant to boot. No surprise there.

Neil Young pulled his music from Spotify because of his rage at Rogan for not believing the Federal Government.

An old freak corrupted by money and celebrity and Marxism, too stupid to realize what’s happened.

I’ve heard it explained this way. They are motivated by the guilt of their good fortune. They didn’t deserve to earn +100+ million over the course of their lifetime, so they feel guilty.

So, they take virtue standing positions to make themselves feel as though they are earning their fortunes.

Cougar and Springsteen did very well off telling their audiences that they were oppressed. Now they’re telling those audiences that other people are oppressed, that their fans are the pampered ones. Naturally, some of those fans are growing disgruntled.

It’s been a super long time since either one has been in touch with the “common man”.

“ The musician got angry after a heckler told him to play some music”

Someone got tired of his libtard lecture and told him to shut up and play 😆
