Soundcheck finds out what it's like to be a very young music fan in the U.S. and across the pond. First, we speak with Sam Killcoyne, the 15-year-old concert promoter behind London's inaugural Underage Festival. His event will bring 5000 teenagers -- and no adults -- to London's Victoria Park tomorrow. And later, we talk with Care Bears on Fire guitarist Sophie Kasakove and drummer Izzy Schappell-Spillman about getting a head start in punk rock. And, MTVNews.com Senior Editor Jem Aswad explains the bands, venues and parents that make up the local 'tween scene.

This is cool, and scary at the same time. See all my younger days was spent trying to get into >= 18 places (and succeeding most of the time) now I gotta do the same nonsense to get hear cool music from younger people because now I'm too old.
I was born at the wrong time...
Where is this heading? Logan's Run? in that case... renew me now, please.
I am enjoying listening to your show today. Very informative as a parent of teens.
I'm curious since the tweens and teens are playing at such a young age are they taking any protective measures against helping to stem future damage to their eardrums.
