I think it's fair to say that most people on this forum are a bit frustrated, such as those who've been playing for years and years, who actually whitnessed the 60's, those who are young, but still love that music, or those like me who simply have very weird tastes. People are at a point where they're saying "their isn't much to do that hasn't been done before" and they're half right- a lot of great ideas have allready been done. But they fail to think or remember that before all those groudbreaking bands came out, no matter when they came out, people were thinking that it all had been done before. I REFUSE to think that their's nothing new to do, that their's nothing unexpressed, that creativity has all been sucked up in the great music that came before.

That said, I'm having a lot of trouble actually doing anything new myself.

But hey, I keep trying. In the meantime I've converted most of my CD's into mp3's and have been burning mixed CD's to listen to at work. That atleast approximates a radio station that doesn't suck.
