Tim, tell us which 3 bands.......

I have been to most of the IPO shows this year.   Due to work constraints 
and having moved further away from Hollywood,  I am not going as much in 
full force as in past years.   I enjoy discovering new bands I haven't heard 
of and vastly increasing my cd collection.  My new discovery this year is 
Cherry Blossom Clinic and The Glimmer Stars.   Ya there have been some band 
that didn't rock my world.  But with this many bands playing  there is bound 
to be.   But it all becomes worth it when you see artists like Chris Von 
Sneidern and PHux whose sets just give you chills.   I do miss some of the 
artists who have played past IPO's and the audities parties and the people I 
have met through the years who no longer come out to LA for IPO but alas 
nothing stays the same.

and David.....Please bring back the Rubinoos!   that would make me a totally 
happy pop girl :-)
