@Budda Your response really surprised me.We have led zep tunes, don't need a second one IMO. But thats me.
You never know, they may find their own sound at some point. Rush was pretty Zepplin'ish in their early days tooSomewhere these guys are a local band and now they are getting there break. This is the music that moves them, so no big deal if they sound somewhat like zep. Most music is derivative of something else anyway.
I dont disagree. Its the local station touting them daily when we have a bunch of really good radio bands right here at home. I dont think my friends killer rock band gets any radio play, despite decent city-sanctioned gigs.@Budda Your response really surprised me.
IMO, we need a second of anything that is live and good quality...no matter which genre/style/etc.
If it's got a catchy name, it's probably Corus.I hear you in regards to what the stations choose to play. When it come to playing Canadian content it is the same stuff all the time. Last time I heard Q107 play Mahogany Rush was probably 15 years ago and that was on one of the specialty shows. Curiously it wasn't Q that play Greta. Anyone know if 94.9 is Corus?
You have to laugh at yourself, but when I first heard "In the Dark" by Billy Squier on the fm I was convinced it was new Zep. I was desperate and that's what I'm sticking to. Listen to it and I swear you can hear a little Plant/Page in their somewhere.You never know, they may find their own sound at some point. Rush was pretty Zepplin'ish in their early days too
If they don't evolve a bit I'm not sure how far they can go. I like it, and am really pleased to hear kids play what I consider to be music, real vocals, real guitar, bass, and drums, no autotune, no pounding inane beat. But that's just meThis guy articulates similar thoughts to mine on GVF...
