Music is an art form and cultural activity whose medium is sound organized in time. The common elements of music are pitch (which governs melody and harmony), rhythm, dynamics, and the sonic qualities of timbre and texture.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Go to the shows! What\u2019s a scene if no one shows up?<\/li>\n
  2. Buy from independent businesses! Supporting independent businesses that support your scene is important. You know where the money is going, and often it is put straight back into the live shows and events you go to.<\/li>\n
  3. Buy band merch! Local bands aren\u2019t often on a record label; they rely on tickets sold and a good old merchandise table.<\/li>\n
  4. Partake in swaps! Sure, you might not have the money to spend on band merch or independent designers. But many scenes hold swap meets, or markets with venders that would love to swap your goods for theirs.<\/li>\n
  5. Dress up for your local club! Make an effort and soon you\u2019ll start to inspire others to get out of the house in their finest club wear.<\/li>\n
  6. Spread the word! The most valuable way to support your local alternative scene is to let other people know it exists. The more people that attend events, the more events there will be! Many alternative clubs or events go out of business because they don\u2019t get enough attendance. Spreading the word could be as simple as sharing a Facebook page!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    If we don\u2019t start supporting our scene than before we know it, it\u2019ll disappear right from under us! Don\u2019t forget the little band with great music that you assumed would be fine without you \u2013 what if no one else has heard them? Share that designer you stumbled across on Etsy \u2013 they might be about to call it quits!<\/p>\n
