Rockin Out

Rockin Out

“Cool” or “sexy” probably aren’t the first words that jump to mind when Austrian Economics is mentioned. In fact, Bob Murphy’s hilarious caricature of the middle-aged libertarian still living in his parents’ basement pretty much sums up public perception. That is changing; Pacey and Jack Ash of rock band Fly-by Radio are leading the way in making personal and economic freedom cool.

Canadian rock legends, Rush, may have a reputation for being free-market and anti-government guys but in terms of dedication to the cause, they fall far short of Pacey and Jack. When their band is traveling between gigs in Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi and Louisiana they listen to countless hours of audio recordings from mises.org and stream all the youtube videos of our conferences. They really know their stuff!

Check out some of the photos from Fly-by Radio’s most recent performance in Auburn…

Show these Austrian rockers that you support their efforts; become fans of their facebook page and if they ever do a gig anywhere near you be sure to go … you won’t be disappointed!

What is the Mises Institute?

The Mises Institute is a non-profit organization that exists to promote teaching and research in the Austrian School of economics, individual freedom, honest history, and international peace, in the tradition of Ludwig von Mises and Murray N. Rothbard. 

Non-political, non-partisan, and non-PC, we advocate a radical shift in the intellectual climate, away from statism and toward a private property order. We believe that our foundational ideas are of permanent value, and oppose all efforts at compromise, sellout, and amalgamation of these ideas with fashionable political, cultural, and social doctrines inimical to their spirit.
