overground 

It being related to music is the only correct part of the last definition. A level reached by few, overground is when an underground artist becomes so popular that they can no longer be called underground. I would say that any underground artist who sells 1 mill+ copies of any one of their albums can be considered overground.
Tech N9ne, Tecca Nina, and Aaron Yates are the only overground artists that come to mind. . . they are all the same person if you didn't catch that.

Often instead of saying 'overground music' it is simplified to just 'overground' or 'the overground'.

Otherground 

The place where true heads reside, heads who understand that, what some of the elements of the Media have dubbed as "youth culture", are not fads. They are in fact their own established cultures, aren't for the youth only, and are here to stay.

The underground is dead, and the mass media has killed it. Television, magazines and the ability to reach the world with one click of a mouse made the term underground obsolete.

The concept behind Otherground is it isn't about any scene in itself. It's about the essence of what so called "youth cultures" are based on. It's for the people who understand what it is to lead a life that's outside of the norm. Even though the ideals may be different from scene to scene, it's always been about self-expression and the DIY ethic.

The trinity of Othergound is:

Art
Music
Philosophy
He went mainstream, but hes still down with the Otherground.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
