Yeah, I figured I'd save you the trouble.

AIRIC 09-20-2007 06:26 PM

I love everything pre 04. And everyone else better love everything pre 04 or they're not coming.

Henrik 09-22-2007 08:29 AM

I've startetd to enjoy Vivida Vis.

So I read on their site that Cancer Bats and Dirty Tricks are opening on Oct.1.

Haven't heard of Dirty Tricks, but their songs on myspace don't sound bad. Never got into Cancer Bats (only heard a few songs) but that got one more friend of mine into going.

AIRIC 09-24-2007 04:23 PM

Cancer Bats are awful.

tom79 09-24-2007 04:31 PM

Yeah...I kinda got that impression too.

Cliche 09-24-2007 07:51 PM

I don't care who's opening, I'm just ****ing pumped I get to see them in 7 days.

SkaRobotArmy 09-24-2007 09:05 PM

i dont know either of them but i forgot my tickets at home when i came back to school so now i probably have to drive 2 hours home to get the tickets and then an hour back to the show...

SkaRobotArmy 10-01-2007 10:09 AM

well, i got the tickets but then got bailed on so i've got two extras for tonight if anybody has got them yet and plans to go. just want what i paid for 'em

I know a guy who likes them, but he's really untrustworthy and probably wouldn't even show up.

I'm so excited for tonight though!

asdf 10-01-2007 03:46 PM

Going on Tour with World/Inferno and Sage Francis soon. I'm considering going, but since it's not very close to where I live... eh.

Liebensaft 10-01-2007 05:27 PM

I'm definitely gonna go. It'll be a great show. November 16, whoop whoop!

Ghostfire3 10-01-2007 05:44 PM

I'm going to the Chicago date. I've never seen Against Me! live.

tom79 10-01-2007 10:23 PM

Just got back from the Toronto show. It was awesome.

Man I'm tired.

Win A Rabbit 10-01-2007 10:33 PM

My friend asked me the other day to burn him a cd of Against Me!'s best stuff.

So I burned a bunch of the old stuff (basically anything pre-SFAFC, plus the singles from New Wave at his request), and he told me he couldn't stand any of it. So now he just wants me to burn him New Wave.

:( /is disappointed in friend.

asdf 10-01-2007 10:48 PM

Just say "no" to burning music you don't like.

SkaRobotArmy 10-01-2007 11:19 PM

dude how'd you get home so fast? we got stuck behind a cop and two city trucks doing like 20k down the 404 to take down construction signs, they had the whole highway blocked off behind them, it made me angrier than anything ever.

the redeeming factor is the show was pretty f'ucking awesome. took them forever to start cause the stupid techy couldn't make toms equipment work and fiddled for like a half hour then they came out and it still didn't work, tom spent like 30 seconds on it and bang. lesson learned? set your own **** up...

also for some anarchists who hope 'their songs never make on fu'cking dollar' they had a reaaaally nice tour bus and all brand new equipment.

no acoustics, mostly new stuff but it was way better live than the album versions of everything, glad i went etc etc would go again.

tom79 10-02-2007 05:25 AM

Yeah it did take forever for them to start. I was expecting a lot of New Wave but it sounds a lot better live than on record so its okay. Only thing that would have been better is if they maybe played a different song other than Borne on the FM Waves but right after it they kicked into Reinventing so it was all good.

Cliche 10-02-2007 06:06 AM

Stop! is 37892 times better live.

And they closed with Baby, I'm an Anarchist!

SkaRobotArmy 10-02-2007 08:46 AM

yea that was super sick. i really thought the encore would be acoustic though... i love his rickenbacker.

SkaRobotArmy 10-02-2007 10:48 AM

[QUOTE=DFelon204409;15363367]Why do all good bands progress in such similar ways.

Rough likable debut LP --> More refined but still rough and awesome sophomore --> Overproduced and influenced by weird genres like reggae and other stuff third LP --> 'major label' type debut which is super over produced but still has good songs[/QUOTE]

if this is what you meant, it means they get better at what they do - songwriting and playing. in doing so, they build a fan base through the first few, somebody on top see's this and decides they can make money on them. it seems to be the way of pretty much of every band.

Cliche 10-02-2007 12:18 PM

Also, I was very pissed off that they didn't bring ANY vinyl.

tom79 10-02-2007 12:33 PM

Last time I saw them all they had on vinyl was New Wave and the live album I think.

and TSR was awesome as the first encore song yesterday.

Cliche 10-02-2007 12:35 PM

Hmm, last time I saw them (in march) they had almost every album there. Guess I'll have to check out eBay.

Jessizzle 10-02-2007 01:02 PM

its really creepy how you posted at EXACTLY 235... the EXACT time we get out of school..

I didn't go to school today.

And no, I didn't go. Turns out that the Exploding Hearts families like to sue people who make bootleg shirts and sell them and stuff. So I'm only going to make one.

Jessizzle 10-02-2007 01:13 PM

thats lame... i want to make more shirts, but im too cheap to pay unless i get a good deal

SkaRobotArmy 10-02-2007 01:14 PM

when i went to the merch table all they had left was new wave and three small or medium sized thrash unreal shirts.
