Quote by Nick Lowe
All those years we'd spent learning these chops, and all those gigs in Germany where you'd play all night, and along comes punk. It has nothing to do with that. A lot of people went out of business.
Summary
This quote highlights the frustration and impact of the punk music movement on established musicians. It suggests that musicians had spent years acquiring skills and honing their craft, playing gigs, and investing time in their musical journey. However, when punk emerged, it disregarded the traditional music skills and approaches that these musicians had perfected, causing many to be left behind and even go out of business. The quote captures the disruption caused by punk and the resulting struggles experienced by musicians who did not align with or adapt to this anarchic and rebellious musical genre.
