Review of La Plebe Tour Eastern Europe

Imagine The Sex Pistols playing with a brass section from Mexico. Now imagine The Sex Pistols playing with a brass section from Mexico rocking it out in Serbia, Bulgaria and Macedonia. La Plebe is, however, less rebellion and more fusion...of cultures, music, and people. The band grew out of a mix of worlds that is part youth movement and part globalization. The band's tours are more like exchange programs that allows them to teach their mix culture and learn from others.
The band is another proof that education needn't be framed within textbooks, needn't be in English, and doesn't require a desk. A concert stage will do just fine.
