In today's world the cultures are becoming intertwined. The advent of near instantaneous had the effect of greatly accelerating the cultural evolution within the individual and therefore the community. During the 1960s the flow of information came so fast and furious that Marshall McLuhan ceased writing books and started a monthly newsletter in order to aid in the assimilation of a portion of the collective data.

With each passing day it becomes more and more obvious what a large contribution Phil and the Handlebar made to our local music scene. We owe him a lot. Possibly Muldoons can pick up some of the slack. Currently in the city of Park the live music is minimal but good.
