The band Bain Mattox – led by the charming front-man of the same name – inspires devotion. It’s a devotion shared by thousands of fans across the Southeast, a devotion that can be traced to a simple image: a television.

Lead singer Bain Mattox’s forearm bears a unique clue to the singer/songwriter’s life: a simple tattoo of a line-drawn television. “I view life like a sit-com. We’re all characters in something bigger. I love to write about people’s real life experiences as though I am watching them on TV,” he says.

Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
