1. You get excited to show your friends a new song and they respond with, "This sounds like a song they play in the background of Urban Outfitters."

You're confused why they aren't as excited as you.

2. "Where do you even find this kind of music?"

No clue tbh.

3. When you talk about alternative music bands with someone and your other friends think you're speaking gibberish.

(Insert indie band here) is not a restaurant despite what it sounds like.

4. When your friends don't even know the most popular indie bands like foster the people...

Trying to pull them into your hole of alternative music is especially hard when they don't even know the basics.

5. You cringe at the rap music they think is amazing.

Drake can calm down.

6. Your friends never let you have the aux.

What you think is fire your friends think is elevator music.

7. It's invigorating to find someone who knows the same small bands as you.

Suddenly this person you barely know becomes your best friend that you have known forever.

8. You struggle to find concert buddies.

No one wants to spend money on some random artist.
