However, I’m bringing you the folks who were there and have lots to say (George Gimarc, Josh Venable and coming soon Jeff Liles, Frank Campagna and I’m going after Wilonsky with a vengance) putting them in front of a mic and allowing them to share with you via audio podcasts. The thing is, Deep Ellum will never again be what it was in the 90’s. The scenesters who started it and kept it alive have moved on to things like careers, families, suburbs. It’s not like Dallasites aren’t aware that there is a place called Deep Ellum in which you can enjoy great live music. My son knew of Deep Ellum when he was 12-years old fercryinoutloud. If they wanted to come, they would. Dallas is a ditzy bird. That’s why it’s such a remarkable thing when a restaurant makes it past it’s first 2 years of business. That’s why the sign guys who work with Dallas nightclubs are rich as hell - the clubs change almost monthly. I think we have to face the fact that for now, Dallas doesn’t give a shit. There are some who do, and those are the ones you’ll find out at shows. But for the most part - nada.
