Okay, hi! I'm jorajo. I live in North Carolina and have been a fan since 1994 when UTTAD came out. I watched a lot of MTV back then (I was, after all, an annoying teen who was ~hip) and What Would You Say got pretty heavy rotation there and on VH1 (probably more there). I bought the album through BMG or Columbia House. I only remember that because the CD came in the mail on a day my dad had off from work and we put it on in the living room. It was the first time I remember buying an album, putting it on, and doing nothing but listening to it. And it was like a religious experience. By Nancies, I was full of jittery wonderful energy and when Jimi Thing came on, I just felt...GOOD. About life.
I kind of slacked off after Crash came out. I had a hard time getting into BTCS but once I did, it was all over. Any hesitation I had about naming DMB one of my favorite bands disappeared and they have been my obsession ever since. April 24 marks my 10th show (and I'm going with my bff cryfreedom, who I have seen every show with) and I am SO FREAKING EXCITED. DMB is a huge part of my life and a huge part of who I am. Going to their shows, listening to the pulls of shows, or even just listening to the studio albums helps set my mind at ease.
And all of this reminds me, I have a firedancer sticker I need to put on my car before Wednesday's show :D
