  • isn't the guitars versus synthesizers feud outmoded in 2011? There is so much more room for niche markets these days. You can be electroclash or old-school heavy metal today and you'll find fans. It's very different from 25 years ago when the music industry was dominated by a handful of major record labels. Better DIY technology and the Internet enables artists to bypass the bigshots.

  • Unfortunately they are not right saying that synthesizers are just as important as guitars right now. A band without a guitar is hardly accepted as a band.

  • so true what they say about the fame thing, some people just want to be famous for anything, a least the human league had tunes to back them up...

  • As Susan says many don't want them to move on, much like Simple Minds and other bands who go out of their way to play their 80 hits live. I can't wait to see them live again.

  • Ha ha... words of wisdom from Phil and the girls. Very well said! Kudos to them.
