If Galt's Gulch were real, what producers do you think would join it?

Perhaps with a little convincing. Let me start...

Pop punk band All Time Low has a strong fanbase and makes the music they want, but have never had mainstream success. A year ago, they released an album on a major label, saw little help, and asked for their release when management changed. Recently they released an album while back on an independent label. On it was the song "The Reckless and the Brave." Here are some lyrics that demonstrate to me that they could be convinced:

"Breaking out of a town called Suburbia
I remember everyone always saying
"Little brat must be crazy
Never make it in our vicious little world"
Still I'm leaving
Got a van, got a chance, got my dignity
Got a dream, got a spark, got somewhere to be
I'll take a breath, say goodbye
To their precious little world
(Say goodbye to me!)"

(Remember to read the lyrics in context of what the band has been through.)

    There are two from Vegas who'd join. Sheldon Adelson & Steve Wynn. Both have become outspoken critics of Obama, and Wynn recently went all Hank Rearden on him. Another (may be rest in peace) I think, eventually, would have been Steve Jobs.
