9. When did you first get into 2 (My Chemical Romance)?
Summer before my senior year of high school, I think, a couple months before The Black Parade came out. It was when I started watching music videos for the first time and I fell in LOVE. Even though I had preconceived notions of how *scoff* emo they were, haha.
10. How did you get into 3 (Avenged Sevenfold)?
Same way I got into MCR. Music videos! "Bat Country" had just started and before the song even began playing I saw the title in the corner and was like "OMFG, bat country as in, we can't stop here, this is bat country???" And then the video proceeded to be all full of awesome and I was like *Fear and Loathing SQUEE* and then I fell in love with the guitars, and the song, and the BOYS...and the rest is history, haha.
11. What is your favorite song by 4 (Pixies)?
Since that's a really fucking hard question I'm gonna have to say "Where Is My Mind?" which is my default, since it's the first I heard by them and I fell in love <3 that song is beautiful. But I also love "Debaser", "Vamos", "I Bleed", "Levitate Me", and lotsssss of others.
12. How many times have you seen 9 (Boston) live?

13. What is a good memory concerning 2 (My Chem)?
I remember being on the lawn for Projekt Revolution while they were playing (and kicking major ass, hardcore style) and me, Jessy, and Erika were just clutching each other in SQUEE when our favorite songs came on and jumping/flailing and being awesome in general. It was SO FUCKING FUN IDEK.
14. Is there a song by 8 (CCR) that makes you sad?

16. How did you become a fan of 10 (Modest Mouse)?
I'd heard "Float On" on the radio and thought it was cute, but it didn't really make me want to buy anything. But then my friend Emily played a couple random songs off the same record and "This Devil's Workday" was SO INSANE, I had to have it. And then I fell in love with the whole record, and all the ones I got after that.
