New School Old School Thinking

As a child, the gold standard of promotion was making it to the Johnny Carson Show. I've written here before about the impact of Conan on the greater TV/New Media world, but here's a pretty solid endorsement of his power.

I simply do not listen to over-the-air music anymore. It's repetitive. It's boring. It's not where I live in the Web 3.0 world.

So where am I hearing new bands, new sounds? Conan.

This hit me as I made my eighth or ninth iTunes purchase after hearing an artist on Conan's show. (Vanessa Carlton and Trombone Short in just the last week)

Remember: CoCo is the future.
