50 States, 50 Bands. A list of the best all-time band, solo artist, and new band from each state in the union. I was all excited about this til I saw the Indiana selections. Sure, the Jacksons are from Gary… but they’re hardly representative of Indiana music. I have to agree with the commenter who says “Indiana’s Solo artist begins and ends with John Mellencamp.” Damn straight.
Important Note
This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
