Hi folks. I just stumbled upon this site from google. I guess I thought getting addicted to another forum site is a good idea.

A little about me- I'm 22, from ohio. I'm the General manager of my campus's radio station, Black Squirrel Radio, and I'm hoping to design for a music magazine when I finally graduate.

Hope these forums are as cool as they seem... talk with you all soon I'm sure.

Fave bands?..and no more plugging your radio station thankyou

It takes up the majority of my life, so I figured it would be worth mentioning. I guess there are a lot of "omg listen to my band/radio station/podcast/whatever" people in these parts.

Favorites: Tom Waits, Morphine, Coheed & Cambria, Primus, the Clash, Man man, 3, The Slackers, Tool, Tiger Army, Why?, Iggy Pop

Yeah and I just ban them for spamming

Welcome aboard. Some good music there.

Kudos for the Tom Waits mention. Some good taste you've got there, welcome to MB

Thank you!

Tom Waits is my personal hero.

Yeah, mine too. One of them anyway. Rain Dogs and Mule Variations are two of my all-time favourites

halzberry · 11-09-2008, 02:47 PM

Rain Dogs is one of my favorites, too. I have a soft spot for Nighthawks at the Diner, though, since that was my first exposure to him as a kid.

Oddly enough, that was my first exposure to him as well. Very difficult album but definitely worth it when you really get your head 'round it (ie when you hear Big Joe and Phantom 309 for the first time)

Go figure. My first memory of it is my dad putting "Better Off Without a Wife" on anytime mom was pissing him off.

Ah, memories... haha
