right on, austin is pretty much the only city in tx i would ever think of returning to visit, i lived there 6 years, hey, i even lifeguarded at barton creek! saved a kid's life there. fun times......... and 6th street, pfft. i don't remember much but i did see some crazy shows, green day at antone's FUCKZzzz1
but britney spears is an entertainer, her entire life was that, she was a mouseketeer, a child television starthe music business knew about her and she was in.
starving musicians don't really shed light on this. just because someone has talent or plays amazing, does not guarantee that they get to be bon jovi status. it should, it's hard enough to track down fresh new music these days.
