Quote Of The Day

September 2, 2010 · Posted in Music Business 

From Billboard, we have, Melvin Benn, managing director of the Reading/Leeds Festival with some comments following last night’s already infamous Guns N’ Roses debacle…

“I’m very bored about it because Guns N’ Roses were just one of 236 acts that played at both Reading and Leeds, and quite frankly every [act] is as valuable to me as any other,” he adds. “When you think of the other performances that actually did just bring amazing delight without any stupidity, people like Blink [182], Arcade Fire and the Libertines… all the bands that are starting out on the Introducing Stage, and Pendulum, Klaxons and Mumford & Sons. It has become a bit boring focusing on the antics of Axl Rose, really.”

Something to work on; actual delight without stupidity my man.

    Pribek! How do I know who the artist is that is playing on 6/5/2012 – I’m two shakes of a wildcat’s ass from tearing out hair here – and the bad part is that it’s mine. Can’t Shazam it. Can’t YouTube it. Can’t Bing it. WTH!?! Good Gawd, I’m livin’ in a Burt Reynolds movie here! Help a brother!

    Love the Blog!

    Thanks Chris. If you are referring to the music playing here on this site, it is me.
