Global Warming and its impact on our nation and the world.

Well, that's not actually what my post is about. I just thought it would be fun to get your attention since this is my first every blog attempt. Since I finally joined in and Jamie was gracious enough to allow me to add my music to the blog, I thought I would blog about my favorite bands. If you are like me your favorite band probably has changed a few times over the years. My first memory of having a favorite band was Depeche Mode when I was around 11. This was definitely influenced greatly by my idolization of my brother Kevin. My dad never let me dye the hair black and grow it out like Robert Smith of The Cure like Kevin had. That was also the first concert I ever attended. Not a bad choice to start with. Soon after that I switched briefly for a year or so to constantly listening to Book of Love (also one of the many tapes, yes, not yet cd's, available through Kevin) and would fall asleep to their music most nights. That was followed up with yet more 80's music by Oingo Boingo, which I still consider one of the best ever and don't think that that is even debatable. In my teenage years I was obsessed with Nirvana for some reason and owned about 20 of their Cd's along w/ many of their posters on my wall. With help from my cousins Darrel and Aaron and one of my best friends Cody Birch I got into Ska and punk in my late teens and along with it the always exciting and constant change in hair color. I think ska/punk music is a lot of fun and had a blast going to concerts and stage diving. Since then I've sort of stuck to MXPX and they still reign supreme today. Who knows what taste changes are in store for the future. Thanks for reading my boring attempt at blogging.
