Here's hoping that people start to get how important a music scene is for the nightlife. You’re right about that.

Let me tell you, people don't just go to see live music here for the sake of doing so. Some go see a band because that band is the new hot thing, but that is a very miniscule portion of the nightlife. Most people here go out to clubs where no live music is taking place or they go see nationally touring acts. The local scene is terrible here just like anywhere except that it is because the venues suck and there are too many bands and venues offering very little bang for your buck. But I think most cities are probably seeing a less impressive local music scene nowadays. The economy is only partially to blame.
