The title of this post is taken from a Bowie tune from the Ziggy Stardust album. I thought it expresses something—not about stealing—but about the spirit of Rock N’ Roll. Like, rebellion, invention (everything the big skate brands hanker for), a feeling of danger, the bad boy, the slick backed spiked up fuck me Johnny out to corrupt our nations sons and daughters, challenge everything. Okay, so a little make-up got in the way.
Musicians whinging about being ripped off by file sharing need to switch up the play or get out of the music business period. It’s like Keith Richards comment upon hearing of Kurt Cobains death …that maybe he was in the wrong business. The battle cry about file sharing from record execs’ is akin to the last nail in the music business coffin. A business which has essentially been a gravy train for the last 50 odd years for anyone but the artist anyway? Whether we had mp3 file sharing or not, there is a history of musicians protest about being fucked over by companies and managers… George Michael, Prince blah blah.
