Collectively, these true rock music fans, create an ear bleed sure to please the most anal of rock connoisseurs. The Internet continues to be the driving force that makes or breaks new artists, and Operator is no exception.

Operator continues to break new ground in online music by offering fans a chance to “demand” that the act stops in their hometown — if they’re not already scheduled to do so.
