I'm just glad that good bands are being noticed. I haven't heard any media buzz about Jane's Addcition in nearly ten years. I don't like it when bands lend their songs/images to commercials for stuff. If it's for a concert or something really related to the artists work, I'm totally cool with it. But when it is for cars or soda or booze or MacDonalds, I have a major problem with it. It just seems to me like selling out. I hated it when I first heard Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin songs being used tom sell cars. I was also furious to hear Blind Melon's hit song "No Rain" being used to sell Pepsi. Also, I heard that the Flaming Lips lent one of their songs for a Coke commercial. I don't know why good bands do this. It really aggrevates me. Those songs have nothing to do with food/beverages/cars.
