+ aside from those, I don't really have bands that I like anymore. But I used to be hugely obsessed with bands the way that a lot of people are hugely obsessed with TV/movie actors these days, so it seems not quite right to leave this category out. I've been listening to a lot of Spotify mixes, such as...
- The Dirty Dancing soundtrack

- Kauai, HI
- NYC, as long as I don't have to live there
