TRV$/DJ-AM Live at the ROXY

I took this photo at the first of three TRV$/DJ-AM shows at the ROXY Theatre in Hollywood, CA. Initially I felt that the crowd didn't really know what to make of this new musical endeavor, I even found myself, at times, asking what it was all about. As they played on and special guests began making appearances I began to realize that this wasnt so much a concert as it was a gathering of some of the most recognized music geniuses getting together in one venue to show to everyone what they were all about, like it or not. It was like they were saying that whatever your musical tastes or background may be that its still possible to find a common ground. It showed a certain unity among musicians that will hopefully stem to the public and create more solidarity among the average citizens. I have always said that musicians in the 60s and 70s used their music and notoriety to make a difference in social and political issues, unfortunately that obligation seems to have disappeared over the years. If I had to name a current musical act that would be the ones to turn that around I would say it has to be TRV$/DJ-AM.
