The importance of being local
Everest:
Hell, by now, us telling you it's redundant, is redundant in itself! Guess I shouldn't've posted this, then... x_O
Merkava:
OH NOES TEH IRONY!

Seems like the thread's gotten a bit derailed...
Anyways, what it seemed like was being said up there was not to go out and see bands you don't like, but to find the bands you do around your scene. Not to the exclusion of all other music.
Hell, you could probably like Coldplay and still supposrt the bands you like in your scene.
And if there isn't a scene, you could always be like MilkmanDan.

Living in a college town (Ann Arbor, University of Michigan), we have a fair amount of decent local acts, but like every other scene, there is a plethora of shit. If you have the patience to dig through the utter fuck-tards, there are some real gems.
And for some shameless local-band promotion, you should all check out Midwest Product. They make electronic music mixed with live instruments, and one of the members has background in audio engineering, resulting in possibly the most orgasmic crisp clear drum sound I have ever heard. Also, they are cool dudes. The guy who writes most of their music works for Food Gatherers, a volunteer orginization, and when volunteering there I met him, and he is a really nice, genuine guy.
Also, Coldplay can be catchy, but I'd have to say they suck. And whoever their lead singer is sounds like a cheap version of Thom Yorke.
