Coincidence ? Maybe, Maybe Not

Before the day is done, I want to note the serendipity of Bruce Springsteen's new set MAGIC releasing on the same day as EMC.  Both works are clarion calls in the midst of a global crisis of violence & poverty, fueled by a widening gap between a disenfranchised majority and a affluemt & threatened minority. Both works animate hope, grace and the promise of change from the bottom up.

If you stretch your imagination, you might envision McLaren at the mike with Springsteen, Little Steven and Patti singing Radio Nowhere:

This is Radio Nowhere
Is there anybody alive out there
This is Radio Nowhere
Is there anybody alive out there
I was sitting around a dead dial
Just another lost number in a file
