The Big Pinch: Chapter 26

We have completed the ride to the top for the underground Christian punk and hardcore scene! Brandon, the label, and the artists, all had continued to grow and succeed for ten years, so now all we need to do is for everything to stay JUST as it is. Sounds easy - just don’t change anything. But we are all well acquainted with how the world works, and we  know the bad news in life is that nothing stays the same.

But perhaps that’s also the good news? It’s much easier for everyone to get along when the pie is growing, but as we move into the final act of this series, Brandon, the label, the bands, the scene, and all of the middle men that make their living off of the music, will have to deal with how to divide and control a rapidly shrinking pie.
