A Boring Dystopia

The world we live in isn't just dystopic, it isn't just stupid, trying to describe all the ways it sucks just makes for a really boring story.

Support your local music scene! I mean like bars, cafes, clubs, outdoors, even restaurants can have local or regional groups playing in all kinds of styles and they're often pretty good. You can be feet away from the band and talk to them afterwards if you want, and the cost is minimal.
Video is talking about exactly such a local scene and how it's being killed right now.
No, from the transcript it looks like they're talking about mid-sized venues (they give an example of a 400-person venue), I'm talking smaller than that.
So what do you do if your band has more than a following of more than 100 people? There's a reason these venues exist.
Yeah, I hate Ticketmaster too. I'm just saying while you lobby for them to be broken up as an illegal monopoly, support your local music scene.
