(!) I remember when I was in high school and I first heard Super Sprode in Amplitude...the memories...

God I hated that song. Their other stuff is better sounding though.

We really need to redefine midwest because all those states are on the east side of the country. Midwest should consist of the Dakotas,Utah, Wyoming, Colorado, you know that states that are in the actual midwest
