Hello to all and welcome to my blog. Let me just start off by saying that if you did not read the name of this blog fully, this is not a blog about the rock band Dire Straits. While they are an amazing band and a personal favorite of mine, I created this blog to talk about the state of the music industry past, present, and future.
Now who am I? I am an avid music listener and basically need music to survive. I myself am not apart of the music industry (nor would I want to be right now), but I am a musician and a concerned citizen. Am I an expert? No I am not an expert by any means, nor do I claim to be one, but I do follow the industry close enough to understand it to a certain degree and know where it has come from and where it could possibly go.
Right now you are probably thinking to yourself "What could this guy possibly have to talk about? There is nothing wrong with the music industry, music is doing fine." Believe me I am not here to announce that music as we know it is going to die, far from it actually. Music is not going anywhere anytime soon. What is going somewhere is the music industry itself. The industry is not the same as it was back in the day, and in this case that is not exactly a good thing. Have I caught your interest? Do you want to know more? Well you will just have to stay tuned in because I intend to inform you all in due time.
You've definitely caught my attention. I'm never too concernced with the music industry (thoug I do know alot of people who think the music qaulity is going down the toilet). It'll be interesting to see how you approach this topic, and what your views are on the industry.
