Well this got pretty blown up indeed.
I didnt mean that the rockers should be some
outcasts that everybody hated.
I just thought it had gone too far.

Sure, but would you like to hear your song blaring in the
back of a diaper-commercial? I wouldnt.
And someone said rock isnt about image, of course it is!
Image is and will probably always be a part of rock-music.
Go ask ANY rock-band if the image doesnt matter.

A Swedish girl-band called "Shebang" recently did a disco-cover on "Sheena is a punkrocker".
This is the kind of things I just dont like.
I cant listen to the song anymore.
I dont argue the fact that its good for rock-music to be
available to everyone, but when it appears in diaper-commercials, when the disco-versions start popping up and
so on I think its gone too far.
Of course you can argue back and forth, but as far as Im concerned, the rock-music is definetely being abused today.
And I dont like it.
