Then, tons of bands exploded out of nowhere and started an era of experimentation and musical progression. Perhaps history WILL repeat itself, and we'll see this happen in and outside the internet? Eh, but then again mainstream has always existed... there was the Little River Band and Peter Frampton in the 70s. But what do I know?
