I was looking into why I just don’t see cover bands at my local venue but this hits a bit deeper at the issue.

I wonder if how niche music tastes have become has something to do with it.

    That’s kinda part of the problem though, isn’t it? Music used to evolve. There used to be distinct generations and genres, and sounds, character, and feelings, and everything. Now it’s just more and more of the same. It’s stagnant I guess is my issue with it. It all kinda sounds like a bad rerun of a crappy early 2000s pop song with no character.

      Absolutely. I don’t see a future where people go out to a 2010’s night like they would go to a 70’s night today. There is just no distinguishing character.

      Now all the ‘new’ music is competing with similar oldies and there is nothing to rally around with friends anymore.
