Right there with you Myth. My thoughts:
See live music where you live. It may amaze you and even if it doesn't one night you'll still be helping someone to create rather than to destroy.
Buy a t-shirt, say a kind word, tell 'em thanks. It may be a long time between thank yous, especially for singer/songwriter folks trying to make it by touring.
Every working musician I've met in my town is a terrific person. Surely that's not always the case but a high percentage of folks who put there soul out there for anyone to see night after night really care about other people, too.

I agree, I think you become wiser to the fact as you get older that most of this commercial stuff is for 'Sheeple' ........if the DJ's and the masters of media wizardry keep plugging it as good you will eventually believe it actually is no matter how dire and vice versa!!
Imo The real music is and always has been underground where the lowly paid musicians sweat out their stuff for the love of their music !!
