From my 17 year old daughter...

you know, if they try to get Plano ISD kids to come en masse to
country-crossover concert, they're going to need to look into some other
fundraising opportunities.

My fave (well-known) bands right now are:
Coldplay
Radiohead
Outkast
Jay-z
The Killers

Tell them to look at the nominees for things like MTV video and music
awards, and MTV Europe, People's Choice awards, and other
teenager/twenty-something award shows. Don't go for the teeny-bopper stuff,
b/c it's going OUT.
