Let's be honest, 2023 is a tough crowd. However, it's often overlooked in favor of money and power. We think the audience matters. You matter. So what's new in 2023? "Identity" is dead. For a while heritage/collective identity was a common source of pride, but even that has now been over-shadowed by other values.
The nicest thing about concerts is you gather people that like you if you're doing it right. However even that can be fickle. In eras like this, one of the strongest 2023 bonds comes from hardship and abuse. The same "knock them down a peg" mentality that creates underdogs, is what makes us support them over and over again.
