Yeah, so I'm kind of getting annoyed at how bands I've loved for about 2 years are getting really popular and everyone is like, "Omigosh I totally heard them first because I saw them on MTV/heard them on the radio/got it free off iTunes 3 weeks ago!!!" So I am just going to post a GIANT LIST O BANDS, and if anyone ever tries that crap on me, I will just give them a link to this journal.
