RTP-area local music and culture

[Bryk <chscene AT bryk.com>]

hmm. i suspect _someone_ in the orbit of all these "poor touring  
bands" can still afford the 5 or 10K it takes to buy the kind of indie  
publicity static and resultant sycophantic bloggery that drives music  
writers for "the local free weekly" to the point of annoying  
bitchiness. imagine that! touring rock bands and local music writers  
making jack shit while their labels and agents and publicists still  
seem to make a decent living. plus ça change...

i didn't know the list was fulla such fucking crybabies.
