Maybe it's just me, but a list of favorites that is longer than, say, 10 bands isn't a list of favorites. Picking favorites involves making some hard decisions. I say no longer than 10 within each kind of music. But whatever. |

There's a band called Yaphet Kotto I think.
Is there really, and I guess this is directed at kingcoffee, a band called Shrewsbury Sucks? If so, that's a bit unkind. Shrewsbury is actually a really nice town and, although not massively exciting, it was compared to where I grew up (going to Shrewsbury on the train was 'an exciting thing') |
