Favorite band

tune1shade

Not songs... comedy actually (I know, it's kinda breaking the whole "favorite band" rule, but Mitch deserves a shout out).

Check out Strategic Grill Locations (especially "Koalas").

The End Has No Jen

Ahh. Well, here are a few of my favorites.
The Carolines (they've broken up, but I'm sure their CDs are still available)
derby
Careen
The Stone Roses
The Darkness

The top 3 are local bands, of Portland, Oregon. They all have a myspace, too, so I'm sure you can buy the CDs from that site.

And then Start Trouble is pretty good, too. They're from Florida, I believe.

And as for the last 2, The Stone Roses and The Darkness, they're both from the UK. I'm sure you know The Darkness, but The Stone Roses were popular in the late 80's.

Hah. I WOULD have an iPod, if Mr. Fuck-Face would give me my money back. NEVER buy an iPod from eBay. Even if it is around half off...

(He claimed it was new, and it was. But it was defective, and 3rd generation, not 4th. And his response was SO illiterate, and offending. There was absolutely nothing capitalized, and at the end, there was a space between 'u' and the ending period. He said I was an ass whole too. God.)

Sorry...XP' Anyways, check those bands out. They're delicious.

my favorite band is this one called ok go. i doubt you've heard of them though, they're not really famous. but you watch out, they're taking over the world!

sweetness

aside from ok go, which would be obvious, cause, seriously look around you, you should have some collective soul, weezer, jimmy eat world, sam roberts, 800 prospect, the dudes(of calgary not anywhere else, cause others are inferior!), roy orbison still rocks, remember lit? i miss them, beck is good, does enyone know who sung "bittersweet symphony"? that was a good one. anyways, also get some cheap trick, cause they were all right.

I was in some random indie record store in NYC and they had it listed as "!!! [chk chk chk]"

But I felt awkward saying "chk chk chk," so I avoided them altogether.
