Yeah, I kinda know about the college radio. I listened to 770 Radio K (I assume you listen to that as well..) but then when I went to request any song by Verve, Placebo, etc...they wouldn't have it!
So I think that 770 can be *too* indie. Marc at Let it Be Records will back me up on that...
but I'm just pissy at the Strokes *L* because it took me a long time to admit I like them because I didn't want to because they're "trendy" and after I like them, then they're all hanging out with Drew Barrymore & Justin Timberlake! and that just cheapens it for me. *L*
I'm going off to the UK next week and I'm going to be (hopefully) recording some material with my friend Nick (see entry above) and we both have a lot to protest again, esp. in this day in age, so maybe something will come out of it, who knows?
and you're right about the best music coming from political eras. Look at the 60s? Bob Dylan? I do see some hints of political-ness recently, but it's all been in the form of crap like some patriotic Bruce Springsteen concert...
so I hope you're right and that there will be a revolution and I hope to be part of it.
