Major labels v. Rock and Roll

Well, the major labels have finally caught on. According to Reuters, Warner Music is adding social networking to its websites, click here to read more. Unfortunately it looks like they're trying to create their own platforms for sharing multimedia rather than plug into existing services like MySpace, Facebook, and Flickr. It may be too little too late for major labels that aren't embracing technology.

Speaking of technology, click here to check out a cool flash-based piano; it's a pretty interesting way of visualizing an instrument.

The list of 2009 inductees for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is in! Now I have mad respect and appreciation for artists like Run-D.M.C., but Rock and Roll? I even enjoy "Run's House" on MTV. They definitely have a spot in the annals of music history and if there were an overall music hall of fame, I would understand. But aside from the Aerosmith collaboration, what Rock and Roll? This is not exclusive to Run-D.M.C.

Lastly, Geoffrey and I have another show coming up March 27th in Richmond, Virginia at Poe's Pub, so get ready Richmond!
