Go support local bands in your area, if any, and if they suit your taste.
To hell with the big touring acts. Or not so big, either.
I’m glad to have seen touring bands like the Sun Ra Arkestra and Bob Dylan.
Tonight it’s The Fleshtones at a bar. 12 bucks, no ticket surcharge (latest BS is paying for said service charge to ticketmaster at the door for a venue owned by livenation on the night of the show).
Earlier this year I enjoyed The Knitters.
