Great post Ezra. We come from the days when massive Rock concerts were put on in public parks in Oz by radio stations with heaps of bands...and all free. The Beatles played on a rooftop, Midnight Oil in the streets of NY and Aerosmith as shown here in Allston. Oh if more of those days could return!
