Is it really just rock musicians ? Whatever the genre it's going to be very difficult for someone to come up with good stuff after a while.

Artists are pressed to get a new album out too quickly, and due to touring etc. don't have time to write as many good songs any more.

| non-**** genres (jazz, blues, classical) are studded with people who have been playing and performing their entire lives.

hmm i was going to disagree witht he initial post but then there is some truth to it.
most of the bands i listen to had great first few albums and then the later stuff is debatable in its quality
overkill,metallica,iron maiden (although they still are good),greenday,slayer,korn,monster magnet.
i think its' a case of running out of ideas but insisting on carrying on rather than stopping like most pop bands do after 6 years.

| So thus the musician has no money to buy equipment, rehearse, record, tour?
The above is the reason why record label's give the musician money in the first place when signing a deal.
