[OT] Songs that make you proud to be a nerd.

So I just bored right now and am listening to music.

Do not post Justin Beiber because that dude just plain old sucks.

Post songs that always remind you that you are a dork, a nerd, or a loser.

I will post these two, they don't describe me, they just make me laugh

This is the Vandals, and if you don't know them they are a punk band with professional musicians. Josh Freese is probably one of the top 10 drummers alive in the world right now. Josh Freese is the drummer for DEVO, A Perfect Circle, Guns N Roses, Nine Inch Nails...AND THE VANDALS.

Their guitarist Warren Fitzgerald has also played with Oingo Boingo (Danny Elfman's band)

Is it wrong that I like to listen to The Raider's March from Indiana Jones?

And just to be fair, Travis Barker deserves a spot in the top 10 drummers alive as well. Always been a huge fan, but I got to see him live back in 09 and he was amazing!

Won't complain too much, but he definitely doesn't deserve to be on the top ten.

He is just a good punkhop drummer, but is certainly not diverse enough to get on the top 10, the top 10 is a hard list to get onto.

But you do get credit for the indiana jones song.

John Williams FTW! I've seen him conduct at the Hollywood Bowl 4 times.

For me, there is no nerdier band than the Aquabats (One of my favorites of all time). They're mostly popular in SoCal, but they get around. They've been together for 16 years. Check 'em out!

Not a big fan of Travis Barker myself, but before Blink, he was the Aquabats' drummer (in fact he's the drummer in this video).

ANYTHING AQUABATS!!! and Yes Travis Barker was sweet in the Bats but Blink sucks a donkeys tail (not actually what I wanted to say).

Screeching Weasel kick ass Shavedape! And I try to never miss a Vandals show when they come to town.
