I am about to pull the ultimate hipster shiznat. I was the GM for a college radio station, and dated three different (college) hip-hop directors (one from a different college radio station). I lived in a punk house, and the whole time, I lived there I never bathed. I went 115 days in a row of seeing at least two indie bands a night. soo boya, i know you are a hipster, 'cause a girl knows when she sees familia. alright, here’s the deal moreno, you ARE a hipster. not because you felt the need to explain to me that there are in fact good bands that no one has heard of, but (as el oso pointed out) because you deny being a hipster.

Hipster 2: "no, I havent." Hipster 1: "You havent?!?!? oh theyre so good, Hipster 2: " Have you heard of Twilight Singers?" Hipster 1: "no." Hipster 2: "You haven't?!?!? oh they're so good." and it continues like this. I guess the only thing to say to sum it all up is, "Maria, Maria, Maria" that was awful. let me just say something:

Have you heard the new indie joke, Moreno? No? Yeah, of course you havent. (that's the joke. it is so lame i'll have to explain it to those of you who didn't get it. you see indie hipster rockers are always talking about some great new band they heard, too cool for you to have heard of, same thing with this joke...eh) So, there is this great new indie joke.
