    I was just thinking about that round this week because I almost used the same band without realizing it

    Transport yourself to 2009, AP.net is thriving and it's the night of my 21st birthday. It's a weeknight, so my roommates who are also 21 go with me at midnight to a local bar, it's boring and mostly a bust, but we have class the next day and we decide to go back home. I must have been posting in a chat thread that day, the exact details are fuzzy, but Danny Casler of National Product saw that I was celebrating my birthday and just so happened to live near me, or be out near me, so he DM's and/or texts me. Tells me he's out with his friends at a local bar and we should meet up. My friends and I think, sure why not, the original plan was a bust. We hop in an uber and head over to where Danny is. We arrive and would you look at that, it's a strip club. Danny comes over to greet us and is with some of the members of Runner Runner, we all go in together. Only a few minutes into the club, which certainly wasn't the usual hangout for my friends and I, we hear over the loudspeaker... "Steve, we hear it's your birthday, come on up!" I look around, Danny is laughing at me and tells a friend of mine to loan him their belt. I take the belt up onto stage and they strap me into a chair. Every woman who was working that night proceeds to give me a lapdance one by one, culminating with having me stand up, turn around, bend over. Then they whip out the belt that was being kept, and proceed to spank me with it multiple times. Everyone obviously is cracking up the whole time. We don't stay too much longer, we say our goodbyes and I've never seen him since then

    Surprised I didn't think of Count the Stars. I did consider Anadivine, another one I thought someone else might submit.

    No New Radicals?!?!?! Actually more surprised the New Frontiers didn't make an appearance here. Seems like a frequently mentioned album on the site that never had a follow up.

  8. Patterns in Traffic liked troyplaysbass's post in the thread Self-Promotion Thread.

    Haven't promoted this much because I feel weird about self promo, but @Kistler and I have been doing a music podcast for a few months and we've been having a great time with it. We do the Blank Check format, going through an artist's discography one album per episode. So far we've covered Thursday and Rilo Kiley, and we're in the middle of our Paramore series right now.

    It's not my prompt either, but I'm definitely thinking about it as artists that got that one album out and then disappeared, rather than artists just getting started and have only recently released a debut.

  10. Patterns in Traffic liked Craig Manning's post in the thread Band Butch Walker.

    Can't really wrap my head around that album being 10. I completely forgot to write a 10-year piece for it. It's a record I have some difficulty going back to, both because of the Ryan Adams of it all and because I listened to it a lot in the months after my grandpa died and I was kind of coming to terms with all that. Definitely one of the Butch albums that gets the least play time from me these days. But man, this record hit me hard when it came out. I think I gave it a perfect 10 over on good ol' AbsolutePunk.net. Still really love a lot of those songs.

    He posted this on socials, along with a video of him singing "Chrissie Hynde."
