it's really funny how much sentimental value i have attached to bands. i'm not a person who keeps old photos or gifts and stares longingly at them during times in which i'm feeling particularly down. the only thing that really gives me a sense of past is music. more specifically, very very IRONIC music. everytime i listen to an old mindless self indulgence or hellogoodbye album, i always remember the (slightly more) awkward teenage stage of my life that it was associated with. i used to be a huge fan of ~*the jonas brothers*~ when they were still completley unknown and "underground" (this time period did actually exist, i promise) even if they are associated with rediculously bad and cheesy pop or, god forbid, rock, they'll always have that little part of my heart that helped me bond with people who really meant a lot to me. all the time we'd spend obessing over what their favorite kind of sandwich was, giggling about all the dumb interviews we'd dig through, or looking all over disneyland for any sign of a promotion for them.
i wonder if in ten years i'll be able to listen to all the hipster crap music i do now, and think to myself, hey, i rememebr when i use to like FUCKING TECHNO, oh my god.
i think in ten years, i'll still be loling at set your goals or something. bonus points: this blog is named after ironic, "old" and hipster music, the only way i could upstage myself is ending with a good DCFC reference, i'm sure.

Awww. I don't connect as much to music as most people. I'm not sure why. :/
