I'm missing the music discussion! Noah, as if I didn't already think you were awesome enough, you have phenominal taste in music. Absolutely stellar. A lot of the bands you listed are ones that I love that no one else seems to pay much attention to.

Anyway, bands/artists that it seems that not enough people have heard of, which is a travesty: The Shins, Belle and Sebastian, The Decemberists, Elliott Smith, Neutral Milk Hotel, New Pornographers, Murder by Death, Mates of State, Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, Interpol, The Wrens, Spoon, The Mars Vollta.

Myspace isn't as widespread here. I've acutally never heard of it until I came to bww. We don't have facebook either.

I make a profile page for... myspace, facebook, LJ, etc. and then never really mess with them again. I check randomly to see if people have friended me, but I'm not addicted to any of the sites. When I first joined myspace, I recall it being confusing as hell... but it's not too bad.

sweetestsiren-- My dad really likes New Pornographers. He made me listen to the cd and they're really good.

That's quite a name for a band, Rach.

Murder by Death!! I forgot them!

I still don't know anything about Facebook except that it obviously sucks. And no, I'm not just bitter because it's only for college students...

Darling Violetta, Velvet Chain, Cibo Matto, Nickel, Kane, Ghost of the Mad Robot and Velvet Chain are some other good bands that mostly no one outside of the Buffy World has heard of.

And Four Star Mary, but I already mentioned them. :)

Yeah I know, which is why I was a *little* freaked out when my dad told me to listen to them.

New Pornographers & Dad...not a normal combination

I used to be quite addicted to myspace, but lately it's just gotten to be silly and annoying.

I have a highschool and a college facebook.

Myspace was fun for a little bit, but it kind of annoys me now.

I just don't really get the appeal of facebook at ALL. *shrug*

It's not as slow and more organized than myspace, and you can find people that you haven't talked to in a long time.

See, I don't understand how it [myspace and facebook] could be addicting....

I can't explain my facebook obsession, but I was really addicted to it for a while. I don't get on as much now.

I used to have a MySpace, but I had problems with other people online and didn't want them viewing all my info. Also, the "YOU'RE SO HOT!!!!" messages from completely random people creeped me out. There was someone who wouldn't stop messenging me until I finally had to reply and tell him to stop it. SO sketchy.

I also found it frankly boring after a while. Making a profile is fun, but there isn't much to do beyond that. I was never really one for blogging because I always found myself trying to write entries that would get me a lot of comments or be interesting to my readers, not something heartfelt.

lol That'd be creepy. But not so bad, because I like being told I'm hot. *strut*

No, I kid:p

My school had a website for a minute and the baseball team had profile pages. I got an email from a man in IL (!) who said he was wheelchair bound and was interested in moving me into his home to take care of him...it was odd, to say the least. I was like 13 at the time.

I knew Anthony would clear it up for us

MySpace is annoying. I just accidentally clicked on a link to someone's and it took the page 5 minutes to load and slowed down my entire computer so I couldn't do anything about it. And sometimes, I almost feel like I'm bordering on stalking looking at some people's, it's all just so personal.

I like Facebook better because not just *anyone* can read your information like they can with MySpace. They only get the bare minimum unless you mutually friend each other.

Noah, I got a marriage proposal from some guy in Estonia looking to get his green card when I was 14. Creepy.
