hey mate am i able to buy this dvd in australia? i cant seem to find it in many places

[unstableground]

It currently isn't released in Austrailia yet, but the DVD is Region 0 (region-free). If you order from a US or Canadian based distributor it will play in your player, provided you can handle an NTSC signal.

While I'll neither defend or support specific comments made by the subjects in the film, I will state that I think you somewhat misinterpreted the point Frank was making. He was simply saying that spectacle replaced musicianship, and opened the doors for a ton of acts to oversaturate the business.. sort of a cause and effect. It wasn't a specific comment about rock or metal, but about the nature of the scenes in general.

[bozo47p]

the Industry is just that...an industry...they are there to make money...the money is what keeps you the artist alive...they even help you get started...you signed the contract...did you not read it?.....if they are doing you an injustise its only because you allowed it...you signed the contract....what are you bitching about....you blame a record corperation for your down fall but you signed the contract....jesus its so easy to pass the blame

'Sorry, I gotta get on my high horse for a moment. The main problem I see with the mainstream music industry is lack of talent.'

I believe that is due to the dumbing down of the public via lowering educational standards in school and cultural degradation over the years.. Just look at the stars of the 1960s, 70s, lesser in the 80s, even lesser in the 90s, and what those people watched, listened to, were taught in school, and were influenced while they were growing up and minds molded, etc.

[electrixladyland69]

I won't be as diplomatic as Frank. There's way too much CRAP and lack of REAL talent out there being promoted by the powers that be in the music industry who could care less about creativity and genuine talent and only concern is PROFITS. That's a FACT.

[hippydippy]

Frank nailed it... "Video Killed The Radio Star"

indeed.

boy oh boy is he right, when you had an LP, you listened to it from start to finish over and over again. now i have tons of downloaded shit on dvds and i will probably never get around to hearing 2/3 of the stuff, and most of contemporary stuff i hear is utter shit. grunge happened in '91, metal happened in the 80's, hard rock in the 70's, beatles and stones and others in the 60's, presley and cash in the 50's, in the 40's and 30's so many great things happened.. and in the 2000's? 2010's? Nada!
