how could i have missed this band? what happened to me way back then that i didn't hear them? they are so cool. i only decided to listen to them because so many new bands cite them as an influence. somehow, i thought they were the same as that other jam band (not gateful dead, the more current one.....the one whose name i can't remember right now). but they aren't - i can see their influence on Weezer, Nirvana, Radiohead, Arcade Fire, and many more.
jeez... what else did i miss?

About Me
why loralie?
she is a character in a novel i am writing. or rather, she is a character in my head who demanded that i write a novel about her. the punk buddhist elf girl-musician.
and does she lie? or does she tell the truth?

Phish? (The jam band, I mean.)
Since you don't list all the bands you've ever heard, here's a few bands whose influence is well out of proportion to their fame or sales figures (apologies if I'm insulting your intelligence:
Velvet Underground (the most important American rock band ever)
Beat Happening
Big Star
My Bloody Valentine
Buzzcocks/Magazine
Husker Du
Suicide
Sonic Youth
That enough?
wow cool! i have heard of some, have heard the music of some. but never heard of beat happening, big star or suicide. will check them out. and see what else i have missed!
