[NewMusic] Ribot rant and subsidized spaces in Europe

[Jon Raskin]

In the 70's I spent several years performing on the street and it is an open
market situation and a skill that you don't aquire in one day. It would have
been more of a test if Joshua had his marketing person there, which he
certainly has.  The shill happens and you gather a crowd. Either the
musician or someone else.
