Today's NY Times Magazine has a long article on the study of happiness. This particular comment struck home.
Happiness 101 - New York Times, 1/7/07: "The focus of Kashdan’s class that day was the distinction between feeling good, which according to positive psychologists only creates a hunger for more pleasure — they call this syndrome the hedonic treadmill — and doing good, which can lead to lasting happiness."
Some live music shows are really just about grooving to the music and maybe getting drunk, stoned, or finding a potential sex partner.
So do experiences like these create lasting fans?
Or is it possible that coupling music with a sense that it is part of a meaningful experience in life result in a better bond with fans?
