You know what I realized? I was going to give a feature on the Band of the Month, and since it is the start of April, is there a better time to start this? Anyway, the Band of the Month is the band that I listen to the most during that month. I realized this back in August- I'd pick up a CD and put it on heavy rotation. Also, going to a show and prepping for it usually made that band a contender for the title of Band of the Month. Mind you, Band of the Month doesn't necessarily mean the band just put out a disc or they are playing a show. Here is the list starting in August of 2000.

August: Hey Mercedes. (I just saw the show at the fireside and picked up the new EP)

September: No Doubt (now I'm probably going to be made fun of because of this pick, but Return of Saturn is pure pop bliss and I will stand by it)

October: Modest Mouse (ahhh, The Moon and Antartica....)

November: The Dismemberment Plan (I put Emergency and I back on heavy rotation after the show at Empty Bottle)

December: The Sea and Cake (Pat and I had a Sea and Cake Christmas. He bought me The Fawn and I bought Oui)

January: Built to Spill (Keep it like a Secret- another Christmas present from Pat)

February: Hagfish (I may also get my indie ass kicked for this, but I found, used, Hagfish Rocks your Lame Ass for a mere $4. at Record Emporium and it was worth every rocked lame ass penny.)

March: Death Cab for Cutie (the fireside show at the end of February rocked!)

April: ??????

I was thinking.... There are 3 of us here. Maybe we should decide as a group. I am open to suggestions.

Ok, I'll be back later.
