Dude! Where's My Music

Synopsis

A Rock 'n' Roll Super Size Me - with the Music Industry as it's target.

My Film questions why despite its millions of passionate and loyal fans is real music always an afterthought by industry professionals?

Where have all the good tunes gone? Why is mainstream music now so tepid? Where's the new raw power, fire, passion and talent?

Where is the Next Generation of Stadium Fillers & Musical Revolutionaries going to come From?

I have created a dialogue with the labels, the bands and the fans. Guitar based Rock dominated the airwaves from its inception in the 50's to the mid 90's.

What went wrong? Is it really just down to downloading or is conservative corporatisation killing music?

So am I right or am I just an impassioned fan who's lost the plot?
