My Interests

Controlled Confusion

So, it seems not all the functions are available here when searching for official MySpace pages for specific bands.  I am amazed at all those bands that have now joined the Friends list which wil...

New Friends

Decided to start adding the MySpace accounts for 80's artists to my Friends area.  Think of a few that should be added, let them know.  This makes it really easy for them to get ahold of me ...
