The College Sound

Today as I sat down to help out the young children with their arithmetic, I shook my head and decided instead to read the daily school paper. The Badger Herald mostly sucks, mostly. I ran by an article that subtly created a stir of anger within me. The article, as you guessed by the title of this post was written about some local band that's "taking advantage of the college sound." Okay. Well enough then. I hate Dave Matthews any way you spin it. Then I wondered, is the crappy current college sound similar to the crappy former college sound(s)? For example, will the music nowadays be looked down upon and ridiculed like Tommy Tutone and Billy Ocean are today? What, did you say that YOU ridiculed the mighty and great Billy Ocean? I didn't think so biscuit basket. Anyway, I have no profound philisophy to extend to you this day. I'm just trying to say that the "college" sound sucks very much now, and has never really been anything respectable. I could only imagine myself as a college student in 1981- I'd wear a fine (as in thin) mustache while I dream of oneday making out with that girl in lecture to that one song by Hall and Oates. We can only hope that the sound today dies as fast as the popularity of (especially) Oates. He was a really shit bag.
