More on this in the near future I am sure, but one sentence in the one blog by Bob Lefsetz (damn his name is hard to spell) really stuck out to me. Most of the thoughts are him stating the obvious “quality of music doesn’t matter” that has been known for 30 years. Nothing new, but I did like this sentence:
You’ve got to start a record label or concert promotion company. You’ve got to champion something new and find a way to sell it.
Not tooting my own horn at all, but this is a great statement to address the new industry. And by new industry I mean more than music. EVERYTHING is affected by the Internet, and after 15+ years the potential still has not been unraveled. Regardless of what you do, think outside of the box, take initiative and create the new society. I personally feel we are at the threshold of a new era.
