I think part of the equation is being able to make a living wage. An earlier post made a great point about 90% of band proceeds coming from touring. That’s a killer. How many musicians that also have lives can spend that much time on the road in their mid ‘30s?? Most Huge bands like Zep were on autopilot collecting royalties by then. Those days are long gone. It’s amazing to me anyone bothers to try music as a profession anymore.

Nope. It would be DOA with little to no audience. Sadly the world embraces manufactured crap like hip-hop and Taylor Swift pop. Different world and it sucks.

Lol. You must have not heard ITTOD.

Classic. Manufacturers will leave no stone unturned to extort cash from the ignorant and unknowing.

I wouldn’t watch this crap even if I had a ride to the “show,” free tickets and it was a block away. This is what happens to aging losers when they refuse to get jobs later in life. Red Rocker . . Lol. Pathetic.

Not my style at all, but the prices are actually not bad at all. I’ve several pairs of Alden and Viberg shoes/boots and quality costs. I think most people are used to buying Chinese made slave labor trash (whether they know it or not) and that’s how they base cost/value. High quality shoes and clothing made in Europe and the USA are not cheap by any stretch. What the USA does make is crappy cars and motorcycles. Lol.

Best take away is he gave props the the genius of Lou Reed.

Agreed. What a jackass.

U need to get off the pipe and get a life. Lol

I applaud them, but wouldn’t pay, less cross the street to see them. Lol.

Lol. No question man. Agreed.

It would be much cooler if it was a stencil and came with a paint kit. Then you could paint your own. Better than a crappy ass sticker.
