RTP-area local music and culture

[grady <grady AT ibiblio.org>]

I like what Chaz does with his myspace, where he moves the bands playing 
at his upcoming shows into his "top 8 friends" or whatever.

What would be kewl, though, would be if MySpace (or some MySpace hacker) 
could set it up so that you could have "top 10 band-friends" whose songs 
would cycle through your little playlist doo-dad. Or wait, maybe you 
*can* do that already; I don't have a MySpace account either (damn that 
Rupert Murdoch, trying to buy the kids!).
