I know a lot of these bands personaly. I went to the same highschool as the RX Bandits, I've met pretty much everyone under drive-thru. But yeah like veteoEx said, if you go to shows it's really easy to make friends with the bands. I go see a lot of bands while they're still small, and at small shows bands tend to walk around when their done playing and the next band comes on. I know Blink-182 because of this, but I wasn't actualy the one that's been seeing them for years, i met them through a friend that knows them, of a friend that knwos them. This guy when he was our age did what I do, and he took my friend with him, so they've known my friend since he was just a kid, and my friend took me with him,and we went backstage and shit. So that's how i met blink. I met Good Charlotte and New Found Glory though myself when they were small. I probably talked to them the most at warped tour, warped tour is a fucking AWSOME place to get to know bands. That's everyone I know that's popular, but I know The starting Line, rufio, Taking back Sunday, and Finch really well, probably group I know best of the bands I'm aquainted with. we're getting to know the Riddlin Kids pretty well, we're going to do some promos for them and pass shit out for thier show next month.
but really yeah, just go to shows and don't be afraid to talk to people.
