Tell me some bands you like and maybe I'll recommend some artists to you if you're interested! Sharp- dude.. highly agree with your last sentence. Fix it! haha Now...to my original goal here: Mr. Gotham Ghost!- Since I see you are into A3...I suggest you take a listen to War Tapes. They're offering a free download of their song, "Dreaming of You". You can snag it here: http://sarathan.com/free/wartapes ..Feel free to post it and share with others you think might enjoy it! cheers, Katy Valerie- I was the same way in high school..but I am 3 years out of the hell hole and am still finding fantastic music every which way I turn ;) It’s not too hard, esp with endless resources here on the internet.

I bought hundreds of CDs in high school and would have the "Greatest band ever!" debates with anyone who would have them with me. Now I just don't care much. I suppose I still listen to a lot of new music, but with nowhere near the fervor as before. I suppose I should fix that, since I work at a radio station now.

It kind of depresses me, actually. In high school, my passion was music. I went to local shows every weekend, and bought at least one new CD a week from Zia. I was always discovering new bands and new lyrics that spoke to me. But for the longest time now, I haven't given myself any outlets. All I've been listening to is old mix CDs I made myself years ago. I miss the feeling of hearing a song for the first time and just connecting with it. I seriously think the last time I bought a CD I couldn't stop listening to, I was a senior in high school. Sad. You conclude the entry with an excellent question. It kind of depresses me, actually.

Sad.

'Open Book' gets the blood flowing through my veins and my spirit racing.
