'Serenity'
Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda
most of the bandom bands are fiercely against both, and frequently say things (in interviews, on stage) to change people's perceptions.
My Chem wants to Save Your Life, and they're completely non-ironic about it. To quote Gerard: "We've always been pretty vocal about our message... just to know that it's okay to be messed up, cause there's five dudes that are just as messed up as you, and we've overcome that in order to do what we do."
A lot of people are drawn to the idea behind the band as much as they are to the music.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
I can look at a hipster kid, an emo kid, and a goth kid and definitely tell the difference.
I've gotten to where I can tell the difference, but it was a close thing for a while. A lot of the emo kids look like baby deathrockers, except with less corpse-like makeup.
More importantly, who would win in a fight?
I'm gonna go with the goth kid, because we goths usually have pointy metal accessories and stompy boots.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Speaking of, Buzznet acquired Stereogum and Idolator this week. Part of P. Wentz's master plan to take over the world, one social media outlet at a time?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Pete has said that he and Joe wanted to put together a band like Good Charlotte, which is a pretty clear indication of where they wanted to put their genre label.
This has nothing to do with FOB, but I believe it was Chris Rock, hosting or presenting on some awards show, who said, "Good Charlotte? More like mediocre Green Day."

Heh. I think that's pretty accurate, but I never particularly liked GC and I do like GD.

Moving away from emo/hipster/gothdom for a second, but still retaining the interest of Jilli - the new Motley Crue video: [link] (Which, now that I think about it, I'm sure you've already seen.)

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
But I hadn't! Whee!

Holy crap. That needs to be an Angel vid.
Jilli, I'm blaming YOU for this earworm. You're right. There was at least one good song left in them.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Okay, so...whoever offered to hook me up with bandom music -- hit me with it.
Like, just an intro. Bandom 101. Bandom's greatest hits.
But not that cover of "Beat It," because that makes me want to retch.
