I've been trying to find this for weeks now. In "Tales From the Afternow" on Rantradio (I'm your friendly neighborhood researcher for the station) Sean Kennedy talks about the Server Prayer.

I had a conversation with my husband a couple of weeks ago. I found something I needed online, when I didn't have a shot of ever locating it. And that's when he mentioned Server. Just today, in searching for a copy of the Server Prayer, I came across a book I've been looking for. I had forgotten about Server, but it seems Server had not forgotten about me.

As a fellow addict of alterative, undergound,indie music, it's so hard to find good posters... or... ANY posters.

Well, I found one place in the U.K. that has an absolutely enormous collection of posters, from blacklight and canvas to actual, rare, limited edition (i.e. they only made, say, 50) concert posters of almost any band you can imagine. Seriously.

That's why I featured them on the [url=http://www.blogcharm.com/calicokat/48855/Band+Posters+-+Rare%2C+Limited+Edition%2C+Amazing%21.html]C.K.

From the latest, hottest fashions to the more unique, inspired pieces, to the downright fun, quirky and cute, Torrid has it all. I love this store, and their online counterpart. They honestly have one of the biggest selections of clothing, shoes and accessories that you could want.

Best part? Most of their site is plus sizes. I mean, okay; they have shoes, hats, belts, and knick-knacks. Yep. But the clothes are amazing; ranging from stuff you'd see on any celebrity to actual stuff from Lip Service (a huge goth/underground brand). It, at the very least, needs to be checked out.

[b]Do you dress alternatively? I do... and e-Bay is by far the easiest and most interesting place to acquire such a wardrobe. You can find anything, in any style, including some absolutely amazing DIY stuff, and often for quite the reasonable (or unbelievable) price.

Here's my list (feel free to add to it)

Although a part of the UK punk movement of which the Sex Pistols were the most notorious group, The Clash were far more adventurous, both musically and idealogically. By the time their breakthough album London Calling was issued in 1980, the Sex Pistols had already crashed and burned while The Clash were producing some of the most vital music of their career.

Although The Pretenders were most definitely a band at the outset, the deaths of original members James Honeyman-Scott and Pete Farndon would soon alter the group's dynamic, making it primarily a vehicle for lead singer/songwriter Chrissie Hynde. The irrepressible Hynde had formed the band in 1978 in London after relocating to the UK from her hometown of Akron, Ohio to work as a music journalist.

Why people dress certain ways
by Johnny Zone

It's interesting how you can walk down the street nowadays and see so many different styles and cloths that it becomes almost natural to label them. These labels we deem people make us just the same as those white folk back in the day labeling a black person a "nigger."

Nowadays its different though because some people like being labeled "emo" or "thug" because that is what they want to be seen as.
