Tonight I went to the Jimmy Eat World concert, and it was awesome! Correction: the band was awesome; the crowd was actually pretty lame. Which is a real shame, too, because Jimmy Eat World is from Mesa, Ariz., which is right here, in Phoenix! I wish they could have had a more spirited group of fans for their homecoming show.
Maybe you didn't know that Jimmy Eat World was from the Phoenix area? Well, just in case you're interested ... Tucson, Ariz., and the Phoenix metro area are also responsible for bringing the public a number of other acts with which you may already be familiar:
The Gin Blossoms. Began in Tempe, Ariz.
Linda Ronstadt. Native of Tucson, Ariz.
Alice Cooper (of the band Kiss). Currently lives in Phoenix.
Dierks Bentley. Native of Phoenix.
John Denver. Native of Tucson, Ariz.
Jordin Sparks. Native of Glendale, Ariz.
Michelle Branch. Native of Phoenix, Ariz., and attended high school in Sedona, Ariz.
Stevie Nicks (of the band Fleetwood Mac). Currently lives in Phoenix.
Wayne Newton. Native of Phoenix.
Sway Sovay. Currently lives in Scottsdale, Ariz. (Because, you know, someday I'm going to be discovered at the downtown karaoke bars.)

I'm surprised that you haven't been discovered yet. I mean, your profile picture looks JUST LIKE Keira Knightley, and she's hard to miss :)
