I'm just old enough to remember how NYC was in the early 70s - crumbling.

It was far more dangerous than today, but you could actually live there and survive on a part-time job.

Now everyone is forced to work like Trojan dogs just to survive.

Over three decades there, I saw fewer and fewer bands with working class weirdos, and far more acts with one or two affluent people dancing in front of $20k worth synthesizer gear and occasionally pressing a button to start the next pre-recorded sequence. It became simply too expensive to get four people into a room once a week to practice.

And these are the early stages of The Crumble. It's going to get worse...

Fucking history, how does it work?

Very best wishes, hope you avoid the worst of it, and have some claps!
