Tell Me :
Talk
Loads of oldies and appreciaters of classical music. It's not just about "sales".
As for rock music being a minuscule % of total record sales - isn't all music being downloaded now?
LOL. Nice try.
If you PAY for a download, it counts as a record SALE.
Don't be so sure. Once accessible media was available to the masses everything historic was and is talked about. Just maybe not in your kitchen.
Architecture, Artwork, Music, Exploration, War, Monarchy, Religion, Diseases, Food, Clothing, etc... are all relevent issues of discussion today, yesterday, and tomorrow.
And if you don't pay?
I buy CDs, DVDs etc. for cheap nowadays but tons of guys download illegally for nothing.
If you DON'T pay, I'm gonna send Johnnie's boys to come getcha!
Who's got time to talk about 16th century musicians in the kitchen when there's no friggen' butter?
Bill Shakespeare
Chrissy Columbus
As long as I'm wasting everyone else's time, and not my own...that would be tragic.
Understanding the problem is the first step towards recovery. Keep the faith, my son.
But StonesTod, that is doing the same twice!
The best part is the whole 'done deal' myth will end way before that fortunately.
No pay for music, no music to not pay for. And by that point the Stones couldn't even pay people to take the music for free - they'll have done their 5th album after A Bigger Bang and play only half of one song on the tour that they'll do that only a handful of people will go to since tickets will be $2500 a piece...the same set list, they're just like cockroaches.
who needs an excuse when there's a perfectly good reason: it's FREE!!!!!
there's a problem?
Which comes back to my original point: is it right to charge for music? I'm sure the Ancient Greek musicians didn't charge someone to listen to them playing the flute.
So you're saying musicians don't deserve to be paid for their work???

Sure they only blow the money anyway...
How do you know they didn't have professional musicians back then ?
i don't think it's work. they PLAY music. big difference....
Lyre!
True. It's not work living the Rock 'n' Roll lifestyle. It's fun.
Nowadays there's copyright on everything. You can hardly whistle a tune in public without being sued.
luckily, i'm tone-deaf
You calling me a Lyre ?
It's a joke. The lyre is the Ancient Greek musicians favorite insturment apparently.
There may have been professional Ancient Greek musicians but hardly charging the audience to listen.
Talk about your favorite band.

What people? Classical music accounts for only minuscule percentage of total record sales, just as in another couple hundred years, rock music will account for only a minuscule percentage of total record sales. Actually, that's already beginning to happen.

The only person still talking about those people is the person who compiled the list. There will always a few people who devote their lives to things nobody else cares about. That's what historians do.
LOL. Nice try.

People will barely be talking about these bands in fifty years.
They will talk about them only for as long as they still exist within living memory. In about 100 years from now, the last living person who saw the Rolling Stones will die. After that, there will be no more talk.

People will have a case by saying you shouldn't be paying for music period.
That no real excuse for guys downloading music illegally but it happens. New CD prices have always been too expensive.
Anyway we're kind of going off topic here.
The Stones will always be remembered - maybe not always for good reasons

I think in 500 years that people will be very much aware of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. Nobody will talk about Van Halen.
Name some musicians, popular in the year 1512, that people still talk about today.

THE STONES ARE THE BEST ~ NO BAND WILL EVER COME CLOSE TO THEM
in 500 years this will have the status of mythology - moving and inspiring mythology -
and we are the incredibly fortunate witnesses
in the evenings and in the mornings,
when we set out on our journeys and when we return home,
we shall speak of them
i love the Rolling Stones
In 500 years, no one will be aware that there ever was a band called the Rolling Stones. I can understand wanting to believe that we have spent our lifetimes obsessing about something that "matters", but matters to whom? And in what context? Truth is, we've "wasted" our lives caring very deeply about something that matters not one iota. And I think it's okay to admit that, and embrace it.
i pride myself on a life of complete and utter waste. and i congratulate everyone on this board for this noble achievement.
As long as I'm wasting everyone else's time, and not my own...that would be tragic.
