| Re: Grass Roots
If I'm getting a general drift here, it sounds something like this: "Modern __________ (fill in the blank) has destroyed ___________ (fill in the blank)." I would like to add the question "Why?" What needs do X-Boxes, MP3's and the like fill that the trumpet doesn't? While trumpet fulfills most of my personal needs (not all, being the gutter level Vulgano that I am), whose needs am I fulfilling by playing trumpet? Or am I simply a narcicist playing a loud instrument saying "hey girls, look at me?"
Is society at fault, or are we?
