A musical group consisting of females, or mostly females. A chick bands can only play rock music, if not, it's not a chick band.
Here are some chick band traits:
Their hair is usually messy. This is to insure that they are tough.
They wish they had a rough life. Most of the time they don't. (They usually say something like: their father left them when they were little girls).
They often complain about sexism. The real reason they get little respect is because they're not talented in the first place.
These bands usually play Fender and Gibson guitars, mostly playing power chords.
Chick bands write "THEIR OWN SONGS", and sometimes cover "A FUCKING GOOD SONG". Sometimes by Kiss, Nirvana, or Guns n' Roses. The chick bands' write about their "boyfriend dumping them", "them dumping their boyfriend", and "partying all night". Maybe even about someone else, overdosing on painkillers.
The singer cannot reach a higher/lower note than their talking voice. Sometimes the singer also plays guitar at the same time.
The chicks in the band are usually butch.

Lillix and The Donnas are chick bands. Hole is not quite a chick band. Avril Lavinge has a chick band, even though she's the only chick in it.

The two states of being are as a human being, or a hungry ghost. Semi-regularly you need to ask yourself which you are. Sometimes it is human. Others, alas, it is hungry ghost.
The hungry ghost seeks validity outside of themselves. Someone pining for an indifferent ex is a hungry ghost. Someone who arrives alone at 6:30 on Saturday night to a pub is probably a hungry ghost. Obsessive checking of mobile phones, chat sites or networks are clear signs that one is a hungry ghost.
The best thing to do is just stay home and ride it out. Read a book. Find some good clean fun.

Mate: How are you?
Dumped: I'm a hungry ghost, man.
Mate: What'd ya do last night?
HG: Urg. I hungry ghosted around The Oxford for a few hours, then walked home past her house, and HIS car was there...
Mate: Why'd you call man?! It's just rampant hungry ghostery.
