Hi, everyone over 30: Who was your favorite local band when you were in highschool?

Did they put out a cassette?

Do you own a copy of that cassette?

How many other people, do you think, still own copies of that cassette?

Do you still keep up with any of the band members?

I'm 29. One of my closest friends from high school was the frontman for a great metal band called Myopia. They were skilled enough that they ended up opening for Nightwish when they played nearby.

They released a couple CDs -- the first one was just a CDR labelled in sharpie and the second one had an inkjet-printed self-adhesive label.

When we were releasing CDs for bands, we used blank top InkJet printable CDs and a cheap Cannon printer with a CD tray.

The end result was that we could do reasonably high quality, direct to disk printing.

Then we'd do cardstock sleeves, and slide them in to plastic bags.

Lemme see if i can find a picture, because it was pretty neat.
