I am Such a Doofus

Oh and the other reason I am totally back here is because of q101. Q101 is the only surviving alternative music radio station on the planet (an exaggeration). As I have stated before I remember when Alternative was king. It was the '90s. I was young and had the whole wide world in front of me and it was my oyster. I went to tons of concerts, met tons of great people, and had tons of fun fun fun fun fun. But it was the alternative music that helped all that. See I would always have a band or song or video to talk about and I befriended people who would never probably talk to me if it wasn't for Green Day, R.E.M., Depeche Mode, Portishead, Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, Sponge, Smoking Popes, Nine Inch Nails, Temple of the Dog, Rage Against the Machine, and especially Smashing Pumpkins and Violent Femmes (the kings)! Yeah baby! Anyways the station is counting down the 101 top songs of the past 13 years. There is a different year and a different 101 songs each day. Then you vote for your favorite year and it will be replayed on the 1st or something like that. I would vote for 1995 but since I haven't had time to listen to much of the countdown I'm going to just read the lists at their site http://q101.com and vote for the year with all of my favorite songs. It's probably between '94, '95, and '96.
