Actually we play local music and bands that really haven't made it to mainstream like NOFX, Young Canadians, and Guitar Wolf; and also bands that feature bandmembers that have hit it big like Josh Homme's Kyuss (whose now QOTSA). I'm also putting together a show that'll play bands mostly from Japan like Electric Eel Shock, the pillows, Gito Gito Hustler, and Ellegarden (who may make it big because they do most of their songs in perfect English).
It's a rule from the college that wer can't play mainstream music becuasse we're supposed to "educate" people on other acts that are actually quite cool.
And yes, there are some cool pictures in the album.
LMFAO sounds like your college radio is a pretentious piece of shit, they just play music to keep up an image.
NOFX may be on a indie label but heaps of people know of them and they regularly chart in America, and here in this country even (Australia), their last CD charted in the top 30. Oh and don't let me forget to mention how many people know of Kyuss aswell cause of QOTSA.
Thank god there are radio open minded radio stations like Triple J.
