Chicago Guy Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 (edited) Classic rock artist in my opinion are fading towards a end. No markret for the music anymore, Trying to use yonger singers to capture the glory days, Queen maybe using Adam Lambert. Journey with Arnel Pineda, Gary's guitar missing from REO, Dennis missing from Styx. Van Halen trying recreate their past, I'm sure If I like the songs from the new CD? Jethro Tull playing with one orignal member. Dire Striats ex members playing out as The Straits.What about Foreigner, one orignal member. Now the orignal guys from Black sabbath maybe missing one key member Bill Ward because of money. When it's to water down it's time to say goodbye. Maybe start a new group? Write some new quality music. Alot of these guys strated out playing as kids and it was mostly just about the music.........

Rubulator2k Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 It's about the music early on... then if its real good, the quest for recognition... once you hit the mainstream its to repeat and make loot... then in the end after the limelight has faded, its to pad the retirement... and for most, if not all of these guys/gals its the drug... what drug?... the high of the live audience and its energy to feed that ego... And any one of them who say that it ain't is a liar... Everybody wants to be "somebody"... most of us settle for what we get and are happy and just daydream about some sort of fame... but the ones who actually taste it?... We can only imagine what its like... I agree CG... Good classic rock style is fading away... When we all pass on so will the music we loved... like each generation before us...
