This woman has been working on the project for over a year, but forgot one thing. Since the story got out, according to @Engineer.Everything on TikTok, the city found out that she never applied for a PERMIT!
With that said, city officials have shut down her project until further notice! Now The Mike & Carla Morning Show found a couple of things very odd about this story. First of all, the young lady sounds like she is like in a hypnotic spell! The other thing might be, someone digging a tunnel like this in our nations capital?
Woman Building Tunnel In D.C. Gets Shutdown
But more and more, the fact that she has done this by herself is still amazing in itself. Once you watch the video and see all that she has done...this woman is truly talented!
Now "why" has to be the other question. On the other hand, we do have people here in Vegas who have built their own "bunker". Some of these bunkers are filled with supplies to live underground for some time. Odd maybe, but people have done it. But once you see how extensive this tunnel is, you would think there is no way you could pull this off!
But clearly she is one person out there that has the plan, the tools and the know how to get this done. At this point in time, she is waiting to see if city officials grant her a permit to continue. On The M&C Morning Show, Mike O'Brian thought, if you're going this far to build a tunnel like this, why would you put it out there on social media? Why would you tell anyone at all what you're doing?
But then again, what do we know right... Check out the segment and the story! Enjoy.
Rolling Stones and 9 Other Rock Artists on TikTok
The Rolling Stones made major headlines in January 2023 with their arrival on TikTok with the handle @therollingstones.
The iconic rock band is the latest legacy act to join the popular social media platform. Along with joining TikTok, the Stones' biggest hit songs are now available for use on the platform. Among the songs available are "Start Me Up," "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction," "Paint It, Black," "Gimme Shelter" and more.
In addition to the launch of the Rolling Stones' TikTok account, Mick Jagger has also joined. His individual account has the handle @jagger. Jagger's first TikTok can be seen below and shows the singer saying hello to TikTok and playfully singing and dancing to "Sympathy For The Devil." (Notably, Keith Richards joined TikTok in December 2021 with the handle @officialkeef.)
TikTok, of course, is one of the most popular social media apps with Gen Z, which provides many older artists the opportunity to attract new, younger fans. In June 2023, YPulse reported that more than three-quarters of Gen Z use TikTok. Additionally, nearly two-thirds of Gen Z use the platform daily. In fact, a September 2023 survey from the Pew Research Center found that 32% of 18 to 29-year-olds regularly get their news from TikTok.
On top of that, Gen Z is turning to TikTok to use as a search engine. The New York Times quotes Prabhakar Raghavan, a senior vice president at Google, on this topic in a September 2022 piece. Raghavan said, "In our studies, something like almost 40 percent of young people, when they’re looking for a place for lunch, they don’t go to Google Maps or Search. They go to TikTok or Instagram"
With all of this in mind, here are the Rolling Stones and nine other classic rock artists with accounts on TikTok.
Rolling Stones
The first few TikToks shared by the Stones have the band encouraging fans to create their own clips impersonating the band and covering their music. It a pretty clever way to get fans interacting with the account.
The Beatles
The Beatles joined TikTok in October 2021 to coincide with the release of the three-part docuseries The Beatles: Get Back. Since then, their account has been active with the addition of many classic clips of the band.
U2
U2 joined TikTok in November 2021 and helped premiere their track "Your Song Saved My Life" from the film Sing 2. They also have no shortage of archival footage, like this clip from the making of the music video for "The Fly."
Stevie Nicks
Stevie Nicks joined TikTok in November 2020 following the viral "Dreams" phenomenon. It remains Nicks' only clip on TikTok, but hopefully, more will be added in the near future.
Mick Fleetwood
Mick Fleetwood also joined TikTok as a result of the viral "Dreams" phenomenon, but he's actually pretty active on the platform. Some of his best TikToks feature him doing various outfit changes, like this clip of him lip-syncing to ZZ Top's "Sharp Dressed Man."
Pink Floyd
Pink Floyd joined TikTok in May 2022. Some of their latest videos are in honor of the 50th anniversary of their landmark album The Dark Side of the Moon.
Alice Cooper
The Godfather of Shock Rock joined TikTok in March 2020. In the years since joining, a bunch of classic Cooper clips have been shared, including this bit from his appearance on The Muppet Show.
The Clash
The Clash's TikTok account was launched in June 2022. Perhaps this means they're the only band that matters on the app!
Def Leppard
Def Leppard joined TikTok in February 2021. The platform served as a great place to show off some behind-the-scenes clips from their super-successful "Stadium Tour" with Motley Crue in the summer of 2022.
Motley Crue
Motley Crue joined TikTok in August 2020. Like their tourmates Def Leppard, the Crue also showed off some great behind-the-scenes footage on tour.
