being in Gainesville, there is a fair amount of local music because of the college, but I'm not really up to date on the scene.

Loyal Frisby disbanded over a year ago, which is too bad because they were pretty good indie, and I havent seen the lead guy, a friend of mine, in months.

There is a group named...well, it's Select Start for short, and you gamers should be able to fill in the rest.  They play video game music with strings, a flute, keyboard, and guitar.

And a few weeks ago I ran into a guy who used to be in the same program as me, who basically told me he dropped outta school to start a rock band (him as lead vocals).  I saw them perform and it was pretty good - they're called The Most.

warren, pa....

i don't think we have any bands anymore :\  Except maybe a few groups of high schoolers.

The Peabodys used to be our local pop-punk legends, but they've since broke up and and diluted themselves around the country.

Katili:
There's a band at my college (possibly) called RhythmicCoughing - http://www.rhythmiccoughing.org.uk/ and another who used to be at my college called Idiosyncrasy.

trill:
The best local band (and some will dispute this, but that's because they're in a 'hardcore' 'band'/morons) is Nik Flagstar and the Panhandle Pair. (www.geocities.com/nikflagstar) They're rockabilly, and the only band that I've never, ever seen play a bad show.

Elyse Therose, when they're having a good night, are really good. Girl fronted indie.
N2O plays pop rock, and they're good but repetative.
Most of the high school bands are boring, boring, boring. "I like the Mars Volta/Underoath/Creed, but I don't feel like I'm ripping them off..." bands.

Aside From Nik and Elyse, though, all the good bands have broken up or moved to Atlanta.

Simulacra:
i have to "represent"  my own fave local band "Third Grade Scuffle"  I work with the drummer and it's a pretty sweet ska-punk band.  i don't usually go for ska-punk, which means they must be pretty good.
