aww and tapes. i have one someone made me. i was in yr 10 i think and he was a year above. he lived in london and i met him on yahoo chat. lol. Why did i give him my home address? I dunno!!

the tape had a variety of music including...ah ha ha...i found it: Mono, B*Witched (drum and bass track!!), Pecadiloes, Cable, Roy Vedas, Gomez, Urasai Yatsura, Hefner, Kenickie (a short track which I have never seen anywhere but on this tape), Elliot Smith, Lo-Fidelity All Stars, Spacemen 3, Idlewild, Mercury Rev, Spiritualized, The Young Offenders, Hillman Minx, Belle and Sebastian, Helen Love, Arab Strap, Spectrum, theaudience (before Sophie Ellis-Bextor went all pop!), Nojahoda, Linoleum and Beta Band.

So there you go. Some indie stuff there. I think I'd only heard of about 4 bands on there when i received it..

What was on your tape?
