Classic Rock mag have themselves said that they have to have someone famous on the cover and articles about bands from way back, or they would never sell enough copies. So we have to conclude, as I concluded in a conclusion I included somewhere or another(Lately I am a bit confused), that Um...
Oh yes! I conclude that the fans and mag buyers are the prob! People won't buy stuff they haven't heard about before. Many on here DO buy stuff they don't already know, as do I but we just aren't enough. Prog mag is a business. The whole world is a business. Damn the whole world! |

Strike! Just don't know who of you both was pitching...
Seriously though - yes, it's all business for the mags, and hobby on the side for the rest of us. But patterns are there to be broken, right?

Well I have no problem with a business avoiding going out of business. The problem comes when common decency goes out the window and I am afraid to report that it went out the window in PROG mag a while ago. I've been affected by that and so have others. That's one thing that has never happened here, as far as I know. |

I'm not a musician, but as a just a fan, I agree 100%. It is not a "big money" for that even for the bands from poor Balkans and East Europe. Well, at the time when The Who charge their hardcore fans 50$ for an one-year membership to the official The Who forum, then the price of 300 pounds to a young band that practically ensures their place in the history with these CD releases is cheap price; it's actually a time capsule and which (in this I would bet in a harder cash than 300 pounds) in the future certainly will be regarded as collectors items as well. Although, I agree with Kati and the others who already are stated that in the magazine should be more articles about the new bands from underground prog scene (imo, if we say *underground*, it would not include these "new" bands who are already in business for decade or more as the bands who are signed for the reputable records companies as well) with some great pics of them - why not (sometime) on the cover page too; at least, that underground prog scene now is more interesting than that already mentioned prog "mainstream" made by "new" bands.

Someone said earlier that Prog has to have famous bands on the cover otherwise they don't sell. I would also say that Prog always has a few features near the beginning on new bands, there's also Steve Davis' column where he usually features weird bands I've never heard of, plus there's the gig and CD reviews as well.

Yea someone said that and I'm just curious how many times they put a cover pic of virtually unknow but a band / solo artist with a great debut album (or great first two albums)? Btw, I did not say that they should to put an unknow band at the cover every month; just sometimes.

Probably never, for the reason already stated.
