Oh cool! Yeah, I'm a huge indie music fan, and it's funny that you mentioned Grey's Anatomy because they used a song by my favorite band (Frightened Rabbit) in that show.

I know what you mean about not being sure that anyone is really reading your posts. I'm new to this so I don't have a lot of friends on here yet either :)
