It occurred to me that, just as kids today "socialize" with each other from their separate bedrooms using laptops, iPhones or iPads and not so much face-to-face, being in an actual band is just too old-fashioned. And it has a degree of difficulty unfamiliar to someone whose idea of challenging group fun is a multi-player online computer game. On the other hand, the death of guitar-based pop music has been predicted before. — This is Noel. Reverb's at maximum an' I'm givin' 'er all she's got. Last edited: Jul 22, 2012 08:39:36 Top

Also this thread has a lousy title, so I will edit it to make it more visible. — Site dude - S3 Agent #202 Need help with the site?
