    How many kids did anything toward that goal, such as forming a band, learning how to play an instrument or sing, actually landing that first gig at a local bar or something…

    … vs how many kids nowadays … have a social media account they post to religiously?

      Forming a band? Tons. You couldn’t drive down a neighborhood block without hearing someone banging on drums in a garage, or an amp pealing its notes out from an open window.

      I would bet the amount of ‘bands’ that formed and the amount of kids that post videos to become influencers have a pretty similar number.
