[T.Beck]

damn I have a lot of bands to check out now, granted I have heard of most those bands and already like a lot of them). I used to totally be on top of my game with bands but since I have been doing more Djing and such my rockawareness has been on the decline while my EDM awareness on the rise. I need to get back to the rock roots.

Seriously listen to those local bands I listed, especially night night, they were so pretty. its 2 guys, one does beats and keys, the other acoustic guitar, and the dude has a beautifull high pitched voice.

[Brian Blurr]
