Wow, 10 years?!?! Holy cow... I can't remember when I first discovered 
Audities... It was probably around 1999, when I first met Paul Kopf and he 
was helping with the Poptopia shows in San Francisco. That was when I dove 
back into music big-time, and I've never looked back.

I've discovered some good stuff through this list: Fountains Of Wayne, The 
Nines, Lollipop Factory (one of my favorite discs EVER), and more. I 
remember my first Not Lame catalogue, and ordering gobs of discs. (And 
learning the hard way that seeing "Jellyfish" in a NL review does not mean 
that the songs sound like "Joining A Fan Club"...) I remember pestering 
everyone on the list with Baypop schedules and announcements.

And as we were all ensconced in our little Internet pop world for 10 years, 
the world around us changed dramatically too. Amazing how much can happen in 
a decade.

Here's to 10 glorious pop-fueled years! See you all in 2016 for the 20th 
anniversary!

THAT coming 10 years ago?...)
