Bye bye Observer Music Monthly 15 Years, 7 Months ago  
Always sad to see outlets for music go under but it was inevitable. When magazines and papers and radio and TV meant to enthuse about music are pathetic, amateur, dreary, patronising, narrow minded - they deserve to fail.

Top of the Pops deserved to die; once the majors hijacked the chart as an indication of popularity to market their priorities, a succession of wankers took over and it got quite unwatchable.

Eurovision started dying as worse executives controlled it. I took over and sent it to the top of the ratings and won the bloody thing. Now wankers are back in control and it's dying again.

Magazines about music are so dull.
Music is so dull.
TV coverage of music is so dull.

No imagination. No originality. Nothing fresh or new.

In fact it goes further than that......Universities now offer Music Business courses......how dull is that - making Rock Music an academic pursuit.

In addition we have had the "cool" gangs from NME trying to enforce their "cool" agenda for so long now we see that much new music that is great is strangled at birth by the Gatekeepers.

Maybe it is right for all those things to end - then once everything has gone music may become essential and exciting again.
