Aa gets a big fat Ff on their report card. Is the obnoxious girl who lies onstage waving a spotlight in your face still in the band?

Every time I go to a 3rd Ward event I feel like I walked into a party where everyone knows each other and are best friends and I feel like an intruder. It's so clique-y and indie-snobbish.
