…people dedicated to their craft can tap into something that people want. Given time and energy, they can build it into something that breathes its own life. It becomes its own “little monster”, outside of the control of the media, the record labels, and the establishment. Riots are a tipping point that happen because there is strength in numbers. Isn’t this exactly what the heart of Rock and Roll is all about.
