The O' Club / Re: What happened to rock/music

Back when bands would give you two for one.
Back in the day when rock vocals made the song/band and btw listen to this killer guitar riff.
Thats when it was more inclusive to females because they are drawn to vocals/lyrics and beat. Females liking a band can make it or break it, as they did the Beatles.
Today much is flip-flopped testosterone over-load geared to pretty much just males. Listen to my guitar and btw I can read lyrics too. They lost 50% of the audience and cannot break mainstream without females. They chased females off to other things like techno, because of the beat and fake autotune vocals. Very few bands have both great vocals and gtr.
IMO, they lost their way. To reach the big audience the vocals must be hot. Ya won’t do it with just gnashing gtrs and looking the slob.
The biker world is basically dead, who are you attracting? Wannabe dudes some females.
Old reunion bands can make it because of vocals and lyrics that are lacking in today's rock. They can fill that void and an arena.
When I was mixing monitors on stage I can see who is in front rows and to watch the audience change from band to band was telling where we were going. I lost interest and yanked the plug. When I saw mostly just dudes I figured they’d do 1-2 tours on top and fade away. No longevity at the top. Here today, gone tomorrow. I would not commit to stuff like that to make a living. Just one-offs for a paycheck.
There is a lot of wasted talent out there, because they just don’t have the vocals that draw attention. Thats mostly in young female stuff now and thats where your females went. American Idol gave a rebirth to vocals, most winners are females.
These male bands with fake devil vocals have a single audience, angry males.
IMO, thats why old rock and pop live forever.
Even Pink Floyd, the vocals and lyrics are gripping, they suck you in, the rest is cool sounds.
Jeff Beck only had 2 instrumentals that broke into mainstream, its all gtr.

Yep. He was made for that role.
I'm not convinced he isn't 1 at least 10% Neanderthal DNA.
