They start getting like they don't have any albums.

They start getting a very devoted local fan base.

Since we began to draw and draw big first hundreds, then thousands came to our impromptu appearances in parks at the local armory.

at the college or any other location that we'd hold our growing tribe we became something people wanted to see we had a raw stage show and songs that were memorable enough for people to want to come back to hear them again to memorize their lyrics and sing their courses we began to attract and hold real fans we would draw up to 3 000 people at our concerts with no album to our name

We were cocky as hell and sure we were good enough to make our mark anywhere.

We felt we were the best undiscovered thing we had ever seen.

This is another very important part of Bruce Feinstein.

He was very, very confident.

Michael Jordan has this great quote where he says, work ethic eliminates fear.

And Bruce's practice and his work ethic helped him develop very real talent and skill.

And even before other people saw it,

He believed in himself.

And it's interesting.

He's the exact same age.

So one of my favorite lines from Michael Dell's autobiography is the fact that, you know, he starts his company.

He's 19 years old.

He's got $1,000.

He's going to compete with IBM, the biggest company in the world at the time.

And he's going to do it from his dorm room.

And in his autobiography, Michael Dell writes, was I a little full of myself at 19?
