Our Generation
Teens create or join their own group with the sense of uniqueness they want to the different individuals they are. This shows that they want to separate themselves from others but having a company at the same time. That's why they want to be different "within" a peer group. Of course we remember the particular groups that evolve from time to time. From goths to punks, from rockers to melodamatic ones, there came a group which became a worldwide sensation. This group not only can be reffered to as a group but more of a generation. This generation is reffered to the EMO GENERATION.

A few days ago, I wrote about being able to interview bands and go see their concerts for free. Well, the woman in charge got back in touch with me, and she didn't sound concerned at all that I live in a different area.

Two of my favorites have albums coming up next year, so I'm sure they'll be wanting some promotion. Unfortunately, they aren't the kind of bands that fill entire stadiums (not exactly anyway). And tend to be more popular in Europe, so when they have a concert in the states, it's usually in a more populated area.

You have to wonder if they used all of their creative mojo on the name...

Some of these are bizarre...some are amusing...some are inexplicable...

...some I want to see!

And, best of all, all of them are alledgedly names of real bands (possibly pending a lawsuit or two)
