why does it work in the uk and not in the us? they don't have to hire 12 tour busses in
the uk to get around. the only way to get bands is to pay them, and you can't pay them
and tour busses and still keep it cheap enough for students.

benefits, however, are an exception. check out the roster for the "free tibet" concert
(i don't have it handy, but it's a huge list).
