Its the way things are nowadays. In the 60's/70's bands done the rounds and IF they were good, they got the rep. Pink Floyd and Genesis were good examples of this and became household names without exposure to the media. They didn't have to show their class on T.V. but there is such a lot of mediocre bands now and singers are always looking for the short cut..........
