Well, I'm not exactly sure if this is considered, but oh well. Good Charolette, Green Day, Blink-182, Anti-Flag, Bad Religion, MxPx, NOFX, Real Big Fish, Deftones, and a ton of others I can't think of now because it's 4:20 in the morning. Holy s***, I forgot your Boarder420, lol.

Dude...I met a DJ last night...and he works at our rock station place...around here...and he thought I was 19 (he turned 24 yesterday)...
But anyway...you could also try to write your own music...I've always found bands are better when they write their own...

Excuse me while I plug my brother shamelessly: My bro's a DJ!!!!
Anyways..I don't have one certain genre I stick to. I play guitar as most of you know, and doing that, expanded my horizons, so to speak. The songs I like most are punk, and ska...but there's rock...maybe even a country song out there I like...etc...
Blind- When someone says 'Reel big fish' first thing that pops into my mind is Ska..but once again, ska, punk, alternative, rock, jazz, blues, classical, country, folk, grunge, it makes no difference..it's all music in th end.

I know they're not. But they both fall into the catagory 'Alternitive'. Like I said, it was early in the morning and I just started naming ones that poped into my head. If anyone ever considered Nirvana and Blink-182 the same, I'd have to torture them and throw them off a bridge.
Mrock- I know Reel Big Fish is Ska, but I don't care, I just started listing bands that poped into my head.
Please excuse me ladies and gentlemen, but my stupidity level sometimes goes a bitntoo high. LOL.

Btw blind...talked to someone at this small 'skateboarding' hangout (literally, they've got a mini ramp setup out back)...got a chance at playing there on a friday or saturday night. I'm going to wait a few months, though..cause I need to learn how to play guitar ;)

you might like the vines, they are trying desperately to sound like grunge, nirvana in particualr, but if you have good taste then you wouldnt, soundgarden is pretty damn good, weezer is the best

Mmmm.. I think that's everything except grunge man. I don't know how the hell you can put Good Charlotte and all those bands (except Deftones), in the grunge category. It's just like saying that Simple Plan is hardcore punk :S....Anyways, I think grunge's the best music that ever existed. Nirvan, Pearl Jam, STP, soundgarden, silverchair, maybe even Bush, all those are great bands, but don't talk about those Good Charlotte and Blink 182 as they were grunge bands:-12:
