The Guitar Hero game reminds me of the air guitar contests they used to have in the 80's. When are they coming out with Air Guitar Hero?
Music is certainly *not* democratic these days. Try to make an original song and get in on the radio or in the mainstream without a record label, advertisers, lawyers, etc. Underground music isn't underground 'cause it's "cool", but because all the radio stations are ClearChannel, and all the record labels are RIAA.
