Attention everyone:

I'm going to one-up the only persistent music mixer I know and assemble the great high-school-nostalgia mix cd. Except this time, it'll go light on stuff ripped from 102.1 and heavy on music with a bit more meaning, a bit more edge, and perhaps just a bit more nostalgia. You, the everyones, come in to fill in any of the gaps I might miss.

I'm talking mainly to three groups of people here:

The Amigos: you know who you are. If I spent the last summer with you, you fit. Stuff like Frontier Psychiatrist, Mr. Skruff - what else have we been obsessed with?

The Band: Eric, Greg, Daniel.. Does anything really need to go in here besides old-school Blink-182 songs and maybe a Pennywise tune? Oh, can't forget NOFX's 'The Brews.'

The Group Consisting Entirely of Aroon: Man, does that sound lame.. what an unnecessary ego boost for aroon. :p Regardless, musically, you deserve it man.. Deftones, old-school Limp Bizkit, Stabbing Westward, old-school Incubus.. what else?
