Posted by Kilbey X on 8/28/2006, 9:53 am Want to say this....since THERE WAS no discussion on WHAT kind of $$$$ have been "supposedly" made off of this.....Want to say this...People WILL have access to such "media events" through the internet, fan traders, word of mouth, other "curiosity seekers" etc....but most of all, when an artist" such as BC has the notoriety has he has "accumulated" over the years...well this type of stuff will "surface!!!" Yeah I know how BC feels about live taping and all that...but indirectly (as mentioned above) this will MOST likely occur!!!! Now, I highly DOUBT with his cult status (he only pulled approx 100 folks at last nite's gig here in Nashville), BIG MULA will be made off this TV GERMAN vid!!! Now maybe if Bruce was someone like Journey Ted Nugent Madonna Michael Jackson, etc ...IT WOULD make a DIFFERENCE...but BRUCE???? In this case, the ones who WANT this video ARE MOST LIKELY BIG FANS anyway...and want to "suppliment" their BRUCE paraphenelia with "whatver" comes acoss their "in full view" direction!!! This "fills" in the gaps for what has happened in previous years for that devoted fan...plus 'sharing" the "gear" with others , fosters appreciation for those who never heard BC before or the recent 'newcomer" who hasnt gone before the other critically acclaimed material of such an artist!!! Being involved with music/radio/etc....it IS VERY easy to be forgotten about....(Just listen to any so station - college , non-commerical etc) an hour is an hour period!!!! the most one can play in one hour is approx 12-13 songs and thats with VERY few or no commercials, news etc!!! That's why there NEEDS to be other outlets...since I HATE to tell certain artists who think otherwise....if one DOESNT think they can use a "new fan or two" or "keep up the interest" with existing fan(s) is HIGHLY MISTAKEN. So many things have TAKEN away the appreciation of music over the years...which I wont go into...but are QUITE EVIDENT...if one looks deep into what is going on around them!!! What I BELIVE is an UTTER ATROCITY is the all this crap going on the internet with someone(s) but say BC's new one -albumwise- "out there" and then 15 others (arbitrary #) downloading it for.....(fill de blanks my children!!!!) So with that being said...There is A LOT TO LOSE with this "downloading" thang than a few live copies getting out to someone who wants em -dvd VHS or whatever~!!!! Most likely many will DISAGREE with me...but eversince many artists allowed "snippets" of their songs to "be listened to" to entice the person to possible buy their music...welll guess what....you know what EVER happened to those times where an individual went into a local RECORD store and Checked out what was going on and ACTUALLY bought the music right then and there?? (As with other mod'n tech - planned obsolesence!!!! OOOPPPS) Will end here...cause I can really get into this...and dont want to bore the eyes and ears off anyone at this moment....till the next.....Peace
