what was that Andy Warhol quote?  "In the future, everyone will be in Wavves on stage in Spain on drugs for 15 minutes".

Yay the present day face of music consumption, "I listened to your band for thirty seconds on myspace and I watched a live video on youtube for 20 seconds, and from this, I feel 100% confident in saying that you suck!"

Seriously. Although I usually can tell right away if I'll take a liking to something or not, but everything is so immediately disposable nowadays. /old lady rant

Everything's immediately disposable these days because the people making this wonderful, vibrant, terrific & timeless music are using the most disposable media available.

This is my favorite kind of thread.  All we need to make it complete are some jokes from STEVE and some OGs complaining about how Termbo sucks now and used to be awesome.

Previous awesome thread, complete with Psychedelic Horseshit interview:

I dunno, it bums me out to think that all those Behavioral Economics books like Predictably Irrational are right in the accessment that people will never really care about something if they didn't have to pay for it and go through an effort to get it.

There's truth to that, I believe.

Disposable format (myspace, mp3s, cd-rs) = disposable music? Probably.

I think we'll be doing 2000 of our next LP, and the packaging will be really nice.  The whole 300 press novelty 45 schtick is very old, although the nature of the market makes it unavoidable sometimes.

I feel like you guys are right, but there's the flip side which is maybe everyone doesn't care about music as much as we do? the disposability of the medium is convenience, and the quality of the music isn't really important.

Eeeeh, I just wish I still had the cash to do something like that.  Maybe if I cut back on the drinking?  

Whatever, it gives me goals to look forward to.  Slowly attain all the musical equipment and recording gear that I need to pull off what I wanna do right now. Slowly get better at the drums, save up to press a couple different seven inches and/or LP's.  Regardless of everything else, keep on writing songs.

That's easily the next five to ten years planned out right there.

Well, to be fair, it's a 1986 12", on a legendary label, which never made it past test pressing phase, and those go for $700 a shot. Might be a suicidal gesture for a new band that wasn't already absurdly hyped.
