IMO.
I have no idea why people keep saying stupid things like this. Nationality does not a band, good or bad, make.

You've convinced me.

What are the requirements. Obviously to live in a society where you have access to the right influences and opportunities. What comes next is talent and that transcends nationality.

To the point of embarrassment.

Or would you rather me say...Latvian artistry and Bolivian imagination?

Love the way you added the second bit after I posted. I agree completely with it by the way.

Sorry I did add more to my previous post while you were typing. In sum, I would have to say that the reason why these two countries produce the best rock bands is because of the language and opportunity similarities. But when it comes down to it I think talent trancends nationality.

Rock bands are rife the world over and for the most part don't cut it in the same way. I understand your point, but I do believe that nations are like people and have characteristics, traits.

America=music
Britain=music
Brazil=football
France=food
Germany=no sense of humour etc.
