WTF
- tearing it down, building it up
In November 2003, shortly after Sarah Hepola was named music editor at the Dallas Observer, Robert Jenkins cornered her during a Sorta and Sparrows concert at Deep Ellum's Sons of Hermann Hall.
"You're not going to change anything in this town," Jenkins said.
His wisdom and warning came from years of going to local shows and watching good bands struggle to find an audience. Hepola took it as a challenge, as did Lindsay Graham, who was within earshot. Together, Jenkins and Graham have stopped complaining about the lack of recognition for local musicians and decided to do something about it.
