Thanks for all the kind words guys. 311, I missed the show
I have been to literally around 60 shows this year so I kind of spent my budget already and haven't been to any in a little while, I saw them at lollapalooza and they were great though!
Fatty as far as where I get the tunes from, it's all over the place. I'm on multiple blogs, pirating sites and have a lot of friends that help keep each other in the loop with new music. My goal is to find new music before the radio stations, including the current and I usually do a good job. Check out pitchfork.com sometime, that's the most common one... but they're a bunch of arrogant assholes, I know the co-founder somewhat and never agree with their top choices.
