Well, I just listen to the bands you guys mention when I want to hear good music. I should be in the age that I should be discovering new bands, but i gave up. I'm in the journo business and a close friend and wonderful music writer of mine keeps suggesting all kinds of new bands which she likes and reviews, but honestly, few have plucked my strings in a meaningful way, while on the other hand I spend three full days with townes van zandt (thanks to aaron!) and am now off to the youtubes for some The Tubes . And don't even get me started on the commercial crap by all these stupid starlets singing about party nights. Kesha and Katy Perry, the horror!
