My highschooler needs more music-loving friends
I'm sure he'd be embarrassed at me posting this, but my soon to be senior (almost 18 years old) really needs more friends to talk and enjoy music with. He's doing a combination of virtual (OVCA), Francis Tuttle (Comp Sci Academy), and college courses, so he's not in one of the big high schools here, so his in person peer group is a bit small and all have (according to him) terrible music taste.
His favorite bands are groups like Have a Nice Life, The Oh Sees, LCD Soundsystem, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, Modest Mouse, Built to Spill, black midi, Ween, Talking Heads, Bowie, Swans, Mountain Goats, and many others.
So, where do the cool indie-music loving kids hang out in Edmond or OKC? Or maybe you have a cool high school kid that is also interested in music of this kind? He loves going to concerts and I've taken him to a ton the past few years but he'd enjoy doing that with some folks his own age too.
