i also love hearing new music. my taste is generally heavy, but i can't help but be eclectic with music with so much amazing talent in all genres. there's so much really good local music out there that isn't getting the attention it deserves. help support & spread the word about any local band you like through word of mouth, email, websites, flyers, message boards, etc. i can't do it anymore like i used to, and the bands appreciate any help.

THIS IS, STEVE PILKINGTON, 1 OF MY BEST FRIENDS, WHO UNFORTUNATELY PASSED AWAY
ON JUNE 11, 2006.
*REST IN PEACE*
THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE WHILE YOU WERE.
I LOVE YOU.
I LOVE THE BAND 311! for about 15 yrs now. they're all amazing musicians & make some of the most beautiful music i've heard, they also have a good attitude & a constant message of unity, respect & postitivity. thank you 311... stay positive & love your life, groove as your soul sings, music's what i need to keep my sanity, no one can really say cuz no one really knows, you got a choice of what you're gonna do, well i guess that's life when you see a dark road up the way and I guess that's life when you gotta roll through anyway, i'm controller of my destination gotta change my mind to help me break away (are just a few by 311)
here's a cool live video of 311...
