Look for the ones I did :)
demi and the girls like her are what's wrong with the world
So it’s been bugging me lately the amount of girls that only like bands based on the “cute factor” of the band and not their music. The criteria of what makes a band good or not should not be based on the possibility of that dudes peen being in or around your lady parts at all. Music is not about that, so you fail at calling yourself a lover of music if you only go to shows to be a (80’s term) groupie.
Girls like that are why it is harder for women to be taken seriously in the music industry. That is why we fall on the ladder as mere photographers and merch girls. Now, I am not saying those are horrible things to be, but when you look at the dynamics…girls fall short and I blame the girls who go to shows and fear one strand of hair being out of place when the “oh so hot” lead singer walks by, because we all know they want to bang every fan girl.
Yes, there are dudes out there in bands that will gravitate towards those girls and their nasty ways…but c’mon people, it’s not 1983 anymore. Get with the time ladies and earn your way to fame, because as far as I’m concerned fucking a band dude to gain status puts you in the same category as the Paris Hiltons and Kim Kardashians of the world…talentless people who bang their way to glitz and glamour.

This one was rough to do because I didn’t know one thing about this band…but phew, pulled it off…I guess
why we like the music we like...
I’ve always wondered why people like the music they do. Not only like it, but adore the artist behind it. Yeah, I judge everyone based on their likes and dislikes because that’s what I do, but I think if someone could tell me the real reason MGMT or My Chemical Romance is their favorite band of all time other than, “they’re good” than I would judge them less, if at all.
I understand there are just some artists we can’t explain. For example, I love to listen to that damn FTSK and the reason? It’s fun nonsense that reminds me of being a 14 year old awkward kid in Hot Topic tees with not a care in the world but Mrs. Wells math class the next day. Here I am 22, still awkward, on the verge of 23 and I still need a musical escape is not for forever, for the 3 minutes it takes some scene band full of glitter to make smile. Are they my favorite? Hell no! But I think I know why some kid in some middle school thinks they’re top notch…
Basically this week, I want to write the real reasons behind why some bands will always own stock in my heart. The bands? I don’t know yet, but I hope by the end I can even discover the real reason behind the shit we hold so dear to us on our i-pods.
i swear this is what those one man bands sound like...
I like puppies and kitties
Rainbows and
Unicorns fly as high as kites in summertime
Dreams come true only if you never speak a word
After blowing out candles
How old are you?
22 going on the rest of the world
Macaroni pictures develop faster than Polaroid friction
Rainbows, vibrant colors frowning after rainstorms
Trees grow in the back of my mind that tears at my spine
Roots oh Kutakentey
Roots oh Kutakentey
I like puppies and kitties
Rainbows and
Disney when I feel like smiling
Zac Efron be my boyfriend
Zac Efron be my boyfriend
Dance music in winter renders mittens useless
Listen to the wind because it’s screaming at you
Forget your intuition and play a game of clue
Monopoly if you got the time
Life if it suits you fine
Chutes and Ladders if you’re up or down
I like puppies
You like puppies
Don’t eat puppies
They taste yucky.
Smile because you’re alive today
I’d go back to yesterday just to say
How your smile made my day
So tell me if you like puppies
As much as me
