Okay, heeres the deal.   I have now bought two cd's, no threee, because you 
people keep talking about these bands, I got Smog's newest cd, which I must 
say, is fucking terrible,  today I bought The Red House Painters self titled 
cd which equally is boring and not very good, I also bought Belle & 
Sebastians Tigermilk, which I should say is pretty good, but still, Im not 
listening to it daily.  I thought these bands would write beautiful chord 
progressions like NMH and MM or BTS or even Archers of Loaf but alas I was 
and continue to be dissapointed with my consistent loss of funds.  I however, 
much to the hardcore Oldskool fans discontent, do like that song that The Get 
Up Kids made a video for, it was great.  Reminded me of Weezer a bit, who is 
one the best bands ever.  I also do like Bedhead, the Treepeople, some 
Pavement,  but overall, I just havent heard anything new even remotely 
interesting.  I wish I could be lead in the right path to righteousness and 
find something new worth listening to.
To respond to person asking about style of dress, Some times I dress like 
Eurotrash, sometimes I dress like a raver, and sometimes I dress like a thug, 
and I do pick up on  girls well, so can take me off that list.  I guess Im 
not a TRUE indierocker, not that I would ever want to be a TRUE anything.  Im 
me, fuck all that.  So I work at the Gap, I have 8 gague earings, I have had 
most things on my body pierced, I listen to Jungle Indie Punk Hip hop Jazz 
and a plethora of other things.  I have one Modest Mouse shirt that I sleep 
in and do my photography in sometimes.  Indie music isnt who I am or what I 
do, its what I like.  The words move me to tears at times, the beat is 
calming sometimes, but that doesnt make me me, it makes me happy, or sad 
sometimes.
