re: The Voice--Season 6 thread

Okay kids, here it is.

1. Josh was the right choice. Soul singer and a legit talent. Good for a change of pace on 'da Voice.

2. Coldplay could be called a "pop band" and a pop, pallid reflection of Radiohead (in fact, that was the primary criticism leveled at them when they first came on the scene). Nevertheless, although I've never downloaded nor bought one of their songs, I respect them and like some of their songs. They have talent.

3. Alabama isn't my cup of tea, BUT they're a very talented country band.

4. 90% of country music today is a sad, empty imitation of arena rock with a twang (and dumbass looking wannabe rock musicians as touring bands).

5. Having represented a couple of bands in L.A. and New Orleans, I have to say the music business sucks, but, more times than not, talent surfaces in spite of it.

6. I've seen everyone from Jimi Hendrix, fairly early James Brown, early Stones, original Allman Bros., George Harrison, Paul McCartney, Wilson Pickett, Otis Redding all the way to fricking Arcade Fire and the fricking, God help me, Decemberists live. Plus The Kills, Jack White, etc., etc. SO MY OPINION COUNTS, MOFOS.
