What kind of garbage is this flashing on the television screen in front of me? Where is the remote control? Turn it off. Make it stop. Was that music or a very bad commerci am afraid it was both. I have just had a very bad experience with the disease which is spreading like wildfire across the nation. MTV. Tell me,...what is next. Maybe even he me wien she ae i ‘was a deadly concept. Music combined with a video sequence and looky here, both parties, the MTV" prototy] types make millions and bands are advertised on national television screaming "Bu: this music" at the top of their lungs. «To successfully make a video and become a “rock and roll” star all one needs is the capital support SD IT IS TIME FOR : STUDENT SENATE ELECTIONS ON ACC CAMPUS !! her. ACC also joined a satillite network station pertaining to higher education. The satellite will be in place and ready for operation this month. Two twenty-five inch television monitors will be placed in room 450 NRC. Announcements will be given as to when programs can be viewed. GARBAGE ON THE SCREEN along with ~a dozen or so half- naked blonds jumping around with their breasts flapping in the camera, mouthing the words of the given song. As this exploitation of music is being accepted all across the nation you will have to excuse me while I make a dash for the toilet and cough up the beef and bean burrito I ate about an hour ago. This exploitation of music is _not the jest of the whole situation, worse. Well, I hate to inform you, but what used to be rock and roll is now labeled as “heavy metal","hard rock" and (plug your ears if you have a weak stomach) “garbage”. What MTV is now calling rock-and-roll is what Jimmy Page, Jimmi Hendrix, Jeff Beck, Neil Young and David Gilmour would all call a very bad trip.

Wait a minute, I know, we will have faith that someday your music, along with all of the other candy-ass “rockers” will vanish form the face of the earth. Too much to ask, I now. Then rock-and-roll was just flourishing in the late 60's and 70's it held mystery, sincerity- a sound that you could feel in your heart. The songs carried a message, howed talent. Jimmy Page's mastery of the guitar along with Bob Dylan's hard-hitting lyrics exemplified the period. If music typifies a period in history, then I guess we are living, in -a hellish period of dull blandness, Michael Jackson said it best. We can "beat it"-we just} “gotta have faith”. T guess we, as lovers of real rock-and-roll, are “livin on a prayer”. Where is a good guitar solo when you need one?
