I remember thinking "These guys have a better band than mine, if they didn't make it, what makes me think i will?" and from that point on wthvr remained of my rockstar dream of making it big pretty much died.

I know what you mean. I stumbled across this song yesterday from a late 90s band called Ooberman that totally passed me by. They had one week at number 39 in the charts - that was it. Can't post the link apparently as I'm a newb here, but just type "Ooberman Shorley Wall" into YouTube. It boggles my mind that a song this good was just ignored.
Do post links to your old bands though, however rough the videos are - still looking for a few more on this little project of mine.
