Music Row or 6th Street?

I feel that Music Row has gone through a lot with Floods, Tornadoes, Bad Management, Having to take in Non-Country Artists to be solvent, and I wonder are we getting a "Cool" Nashville like it's Iowa City and not just the Athens of the South?

Usually, with Rural and Urban America's dueling disrepair, we'd be having stars and artists vs. bad actors trying to pass themselves off as art students. Decay only begets more decay and Ben Folds (Was Five in the 1990s) is actively trying to save Elvis' Nashville Home and the horror is Nashville has had so much active history that trying to preserve it is more than a society could do.

And, I feel what is sadly missing in action is actually having metal. And, I do prefer DJs to Live Bands, which was the bone of 6th Street in Austin, but, we have been more of a Jacko than a Prince, even though being without Prince has been raining for a year like a Non Stop Thunderstorm and being more of a Bob Dylan reinforced than a John Lennon, which has been the warp since TRL.

I think the outlet in the end is Hollywood. Even though we have an overcrowd of independents, which has twisted on psychological on finding legit labels out of the riff raff, but, we have problems knowing who is a star and who is just hogging space.

The right people aren't being given space on the soapbox, much less the speakerphone. If artists duck live shows like senators duck town halls, that is a big problem because we need local labels like local network television.
