Cayman Net News: Pride in our own, an old message worth repeating for Caymanian musicians

Pride in our own, an old message worth repeating for Caymanian musicians

Reader comments:

I tire of hearing about the unfair treatment of local musicians and do not normally read any of Ms Quappe's commentary since there are many words saying little. This is how it works. Struggling musicians are not unique to Cayman - they are all over the world. Good musicians may or may not get recognition for their skills - it is the luck of the draw. There was talk of forcing local radio stations to play local musicians. I do not know if it ever came into effect, but the mere talk of it was enough to make me not listen to any of them. I now enjoy radio by subscription from Uncle Sam. There are local bands that I like and some I do not and that is typical of how it is anywhere, but don't ram it down my throat (or my ears) just because somebody feels it is unfair! Good musicians will make it on their own merit; it is as simple as that! - Slinky
