My wife showed me a blog this
weekend written by Nick Simmons. He
interviewed his father, Gene Simmons, on the death of rock and the current
shift in the music industry. They
discussed the lack of iconic artists in today industry, and the lack of financial
support for songwriters and rock artists due to file sharing. The interview touched on things that I have
mentioned in past posts, and went deeper into the state of the music industry. Rather than attempt to write on this topic
myself, I would like to refer you to this source. Here is a link to the interview:

As a
disclaimer - Gene Simmons does use a sparse amount of vulgar language within
the post. I personally chose to ignore
that since the quality of the discussion and content was so high.
