'Kick Out The Jams' by MC5 - just what you need at 17, if you don't drive off the road. Music might indeed change things to some extent.
'Directly from my Heart to You' - Sugar Cane Harris, amazing violin solo on Zappa's 'Weasels Ripped my Flesh'. Fiddles aren't just for folk.
Frank Zappa - said something like 'Rock journalism is people who can write interviewing people who can't talk for people who can't read'. And his music.
'Memories from a Scotch Sitting Room' by Ivor Cutler, and The Fugs - there really is an audience for all kinds of weird shit out there, and if you want to do it, someone somewhere probably wants to hear it.
Audiences anywhere I've played - never estimate an audience, either over- or under- .
