I did try introducing myself a bit ago, but I don't think the message went 
through.  So, I'll try again.  Hmm, I got into SDRE by hearing Pillars and 
HIFTBSO on the radio (gasp) on a preview show, and, incidentally, I have not 
heard them since which gives you an idea of the abysmmal taste in music in 
my neck of the woods.  That, and having heard they were good, compelled me 
to get How it feels... and that CD rocks, I do believe it is the best of the 
three full-length albums.  I got the other two in reverse order, and just 
picked up Diary a couple weeks ago.  I also had the chance to see the band 
in Spokane, and had tickets and the whole she-band, except that two days 
before I sprained my ankle rather severly and spent the night of the in the 
hospital, which is a terrible place to sleep.

I live approx. 40 miles N. of Spokane, WA, which is across the state from 
Seattle and a polar opposite of that city.  Suffice to say, I'll just 
thrilled to be leaving for college in Portland, OR next year.  Other bands I 
like include:  Pearl Jam, REM, the Wallflowers, the Cure, Bauhaus, 
Soundgarden, and a host of other bands which I can't remember, as well as 
Celtic/Native American traditional music.  I have one sister who is the 
coolest person I know and has blue-purple spiked hair, something like Lars 
from Rancid, except not quite as tall.

talk to y'all later
