Part 2 of my conversation with guest Jay Breitling about the evolution of the music blog.

Show notes:

• Breitling recently shut down his fine music blog Clicky Clicky

• Some band reunions shouldn't happen

• A whole new target audience for newer live acts

• The kids wanna snap

• Some bands can make a living selling merch and playing small live gigs

• No time for comics anymore

• The inflated price of vinyl

• Zines were the music blogs of the '80s and '90s

• Kumar: A buddy in Washington state got into punk, started a zine

• The convenience of blog software

• The blog as reference tool

• Our work at Webnoize is mostly gone now

• Clicky Clicky lives on via Facebook page

• The blog had a hardcore audience

• Not in it for the numbers

• Cutting through the crap on Twitter

• Quality, not quantity of posts
