Is music now more impersonal with the advent of digital music distribution?
Music Supervisor Dan Hubbert: When I was growing up too, you know, I was a big Rush fan. I knew everything about all three of those guys. I would stare at their album covers. Remember album covers went from this to this to now this. I literally would stare at the “Yes” songs album cover for hours and look at every little nuance and I knew everybody’s names in the band. I knew everybody’s names in Van Halen. Every band that I really paid attention to, I knew who Geezer Butler was. I knew he was the bass player for Black Sabbath. Now, I guess the sad part of what you’re talking about with the advent of MTV and iTunes is there’s less of that. I don’t know… My business partners went and saw Matchbox 20 last night I asked them what’s the guitar player’s name and he has no idea. Rob Thomas is all he knows. That’s kind of sad I hope that comes back some day when people actually get vested in the groups but it really is all about the songs right now. And it’s all about people liking the songs
