Something to do an hour and a half before my college lab where I get to wear my econ sweater.

Rules:
Find top 20 artists (by playcount)
Locate the eight suggested bands

How Varied Is Your Music Taste?
First, make a list of your top-20 artists overall (I'm gonna do for the last 12 months, too). Then, for each of these artists, add the 8 most similar artists to your list. Delete any duplicates, count up the number of entries on your list and this will give you some idea of how eclectic your listening habits are. A score of 9 represents an extremely unvaried musical taste while a 160 represents an extremely varied one.
