I’ve found myself trying to write the beginning of this entry several times.  Each time taking a different approach to conveying these simple truths:

1.  There was a time when it was believed music could change the course of history and in fact some positive changes were obtained.

Woody Gurthrie and his Machine

2.  The change those musicians made have mostly dissolved with time.Limp Bizkit, bleh, at Woodstock ’99

Limp Bizkit, bleh, making an ass of themselves at Woodstock '99

3.  Our generation wants to change the world, perhaps with music, but doesn’t respect legitimate politically active artists.

Cure AIDS? Pfff....yeah right, Dr. Shades.

4. However, it’s ok to feign political activism maybe once or twice and still keep your cred.

5.  We’re fucked.

Hey Barack HUSSEIN O-Bama, aka BARRY SOETORO, go back to Indochina. You ain't pushin socialist Chinese healthcare on me and my Baby! 'Merica!

So, while you wait for humanity to implode relax a spell and listen to these tunes from a more naive time; when the monster we know as the internet was just a twinkle in your grandmammy’s eye.
