Not the Industrial revolution?

And another use if Industrial was one explained in the 24 hours box set,
which I'd totally missed till that point, the idea of a "Music Industry",
as if you can have an Industralisation of music, which is of course an
"art", bit of a hippy take on it, of course, if I get time I'll try and did
out the correct quote.

Talking of quotes, here's my fav from Simon Ford's Wreckers of Civilisation:


"P Orrige later upset the Punks by spitting tage blood over Debbie Wilson
and spreading a rumour that Billy Idol was going to get hung by cheese-wire
as a finale."

Must admit I'm in a real TG moment, all I seem to listen to is them these
days.. "Good Job they had Lino!" etc etc.
