Rolling Stone magazine credits woodstock for pulling off the ultimate magic act of the 1960's; turnign rain-soaked chaos into the greatest music festival ever! Paula Perry has just posted a little history gem for all you rockers out there. 40 Years of Woodstock in retrospect.

I've been hearing some chatter recently about underground music going the way of the "black guy mohawk"-out the door. one definition of Underground music is music that refers to a variety of post-1960s rock, pop, or dance subgenres that developed a cult following despite their lack of mainstream. Even though music can't hide from the internet I still believe that because of the pressures put on todays bloggers and DJs to "play for pay" or "go where the money is" that underground music can still live and thrive and evolve on the internet. Hopefully we can help increase the underground network by strengthening long distance ties between musicians and their fans. Everyone is now the underground musician. Music will go back to its purest form where the main inspiration for doing it is the love and the respect.
