I am Valerie. valerie2776 also, normally.

Became a fan after watching the Experimental Film music video on homestarrunner.com in the summer of 2005 & then borrowing Apollo 18 from the library and listening to it over and over again.

I particularly love to collect paper-based band ephemera and it is my life's goal to get TMBG Info Club Archive in nice, beautiful, complete shape.

The rest of this page was written in ~2007.

TMBG-related things that make me smile/laugh/happy:
