Okay, so one day the city decides that the next exciting location for its landfill is your house, and without prior warning garbage trucks just show up, crash through your front door and start unloading messy garbage all over your bedroom.
And when you complain, the city's meek reply is "Sheesh, things change, man. Accept it already."
heh. |
wtf man...
that analogy is total bullshit. NO-one's crashing through ur door. No-ones expecting u to listen to trance today. No-ones bothering u. Everyone else has just moved on, and ur still the same.
Here's a better analogy:
(by you, i don't mean specifically you, but it does help draw a better analogy, by forcing other ppl to use their imagination)
It's the 1980s
ur one of those morons in high school, that thinks that he can keep playing his guitar and keep on ROCKING with his little rock buddies, that go to his garage everyday after school and keep playing..
whilst you are incredibally armirable in your love for ur music, and ur aspirations for the future, your friends don't share ur vision/passion. Some of them move onto EDM and otehr genres, some of them decide to fuck it all together, and get a real job, adn get into uni. The rest of ur friends Ditch the style of rock that ur doing, and move onto the 90s style of rock.'
GUESS WHAT!!!! YOUR ALONE! the world has moved on. You love 80's rock. There's still heaps of ppl out there who love it too. unfortunately, the vast majority of ppl don't give a shit. They prefer teh newer style of rock.
GUESS WHAT! YOUR THE ROCK VERSION OF ISHKUR!
now, as with any change, u can do 3 things:
1) accept it, and get with.
2) say it's bullshit and spend ur dying years bitching about it (grandpa)
3) Form a movement, and try to get ppl back into it. The best way to do this, is to make something they like, so the appreciate the old way.
Ishkur, ur doing 2 and 3. I suggest u focus on 3, instead of 2.
ISHKUR, have u ever noticed that now-a-days, a lot of the little teeny boppers (non-EDM) still dance and sing along to 1970's 1980's shit?
WHY? BECAUSE IT SUONDS BETTER TO THEM. a lot of teeny boppers go and buy old 1970's and 1980's shit. Some even get the beetles.
WHY? BECAUE IT SOUNDS BETTER TO THEM, AND THEY LIKE IT. over-commercialism has killed the modern pop industry.
What u need to do, is stopping beind the spitting image of everyone's whining and moaning grandad, and encourage change. Best way, is to find some fat tunes, and some old DJs/producers, who love that shit (i know some who still do, and still make it, and still play it out).
USE THESE GUYS to encourage change, and get some of the teeny boppers of trance (as u see it), back into the older style.
Stop being a moaning grandpa, start being more of a leader. And more of a champion of change. Right now u have no fucking idea where u seem to be going.
I'm sorry, but if things still don't work out, then the only options u have is 1 and 2. TOo bad... the old times are gone, and maybe things are just no longer to ur taste.
oh gramps...
one more thing....
assuming ur shithouse analogy is actually reasonable...
The city would indeed be meek. And they'd probably treat other ppl the same way..
i'd form a movement. The world is still a free place for u, isn't it IShkur. If it wasn't, we would've banned ur stupid fucking website....
I'd do that... rile up the masses, and kill the city officials.... becasue so many ppl would be on my side, if the city was like that.
but unfortunately in ur case, maybe u need more ppl to agree with u. and if u can't work up any support then the world must be wrong. Couldn't possibly be u. Your opinion is superior to everyone elses.
