This was a fabulously written, engaging read. MySpace was never a part of my life (prolly too old) but it was a massive paradigm shift for how musicians connected with fans, which I don't think has been explored as deeply as it should.

Really loved this. I wasn't familiar with Tom's story and this was really fascinating. The hero we need.
