I am probably one of the most out of the loop people on this list when
it comes to keeping up with local/regional bands, and even I have heard
of almost all of them and could probably even recite a quick bio on
half.  You may not like the bands that were chosen for whatever reason,
and that's fine, but implying that most of these bands are unknowns is
wrong, and insincere at best.
