Let the Kids Dance!

Part 3: The Best Pack of Idiots

Listen on

Episode notes

In 1991, grunge explodes onto the world stage and Seattle is declared the coolest place on earth. Media depicts the city as a creative utopia, but in reality, the Teen Dance Ordinance is suffocating the music scene. A new city attorney embraces the law, crusading for civility on his own authoritarian terms. In response, the Seattle suburbs become an unlikely incubator for live music and teen solidarity.
