The home listener can easily recreate this event by standing in the rain with their iPod at maximum volume and the EQ set to "Treble Booster." Perfectionists are encouraged to first pay $5 for a confusingly bullshit taco.

The music industry primarily runs off of the hopes and dreams of millions of kids wanting to be in a rock and roll band. Its slightly lesser known secondary source of fuel is the hopes and dreams of kids who at least want to work in a rock and roll business. All over Chicago, businesses large and small find interns knocking on their door - students, career-changers, hobbyists, and more. Transmission sits down to talk to some of them about where they're coming from, where they want to go, and what fun manual labor they've performed along on the way.
