Do they ever play [i]The Receiving End Of It All[/i] or [i]What a Wicked Gang Are We[/i]?

[QUOTE=SkaRobotArmy;15818996]thats so sick they a wonderful life, i love that song.[/QUOTE]

yeah it was my favorite of the set. Everybody was dancing. Me and a few friends made a circle and held hands and skanked. I would just look over at people and wave at them and they would come over and join. It got up to around 20 people.. soooo much fun :)

[QUOTE=Twin Human Highway Flares;15821657]I was gonna go to this but decided not to. I'm kinda pissed now.[/QUOTE]

ah you should have, especially for only $15. also if youve ever been to the varsity theater (where it was at) its definitely my favorite venue ive been to so far in the twin cities

they said theyd be touring in april again that theyd come back (at least to minnesota)

i was hoping for receiving end of it all but they never did
(my favorite off the new album)

also ive never seen them play the saddest song. thats one of their most energetic (and favorite) i really want them to sometime

it's a shame if they don't because the receiving end of it all is the best song off their new disc.

Henrik 01-13-2008 06:56 AM

That sucks if they don't. They even say in the booklet that The Receiving End Of It All is the band's favorite track of the album. (mine too :( )

Other than that, awesome set list.

I'm going to see them in february with Reel Big Fish. I just wish they would come alone, cause I don't care that much for Reel Big Fish, and Streetlight's set gets shorter because they aren't headlining.

DougJI 01-13-2008 04:07 PM

Tomas' voice isnt up to it

and theres like 80 million vocal parts, and they cant figure out how to do it

and tomas cant play and sing parts of the song at the same time.

but they've been promising to be ready to do it by april.

SkaRobotArmy 01-13-2008 08:32 PM

i never understood why bands record things they can't play live. its one thing if you add an outside instrument or something that you dont normally have for effect. but to write a part like that that you couldn't play and sing at the same time is kinda silly i think.

Flagjacket 01-13-2008 10:14 PM

Because the point of recorded music is to compose a variety of sounds into an arrangement that is audibly pleasing. To use everything you can and want to is no problem, you can always just run a recording or something through the speakers.

DougJI 01-13-2008 11:14 PM

probably thought that one line of vocals made it sound empty/not as epic.

i personally love the chorus, i always sing the long drawn out part "though you dont knoooww wwhaaaat its liiiiiike to lose it allll its like to be on the receiving end of it all"

I don't know why, but I'm glad they did, cause that Chorus is definitely some of the best they have did in my honest opinion.

I think Streetlight could use a more solid backup singer, when they play live.

SkaRobotArmy 01-22-2008 04:23 PM

i agree, i just think its strange...

and really? i think he does a great job, their voices fit together really well. i think past horn players did more back-ups if i remember.

Jessizzle 01-22-2008 08:25 PM

today i woke up and said ' i think i am going to wear my streetlight shirt today' then picked up it and said naaah..

i thought that was something intresting i could add to the convercation..

Flagjacket 01-22-2008 08:37 PM

Jess don't make me hate you

Jessizzle 01-22-2008 08:43 PM

kevin... you know you love me.

Yeah well maybe your're right. I just never thought that Jammy Egan was that good of a back-up singer, though he is an awesome musician.
But honestly if they are to play The Receiving End Of It All they probably need 2 good back-up singers at least to make it sound good live.

Liebensaft 01-23-2008 05:06 PM

If I didn't know Jess, I'd hate her. Just sayin'.

Yeah, they all kinda suck at singing live. Not that you can usually hear them over the crowd.

Robbert 02-01-2008 07:59 AM

I'm seeing SLM tonight, I can hardly wait. They're supporting reel big fish, and I hope that RBF is bit ok as well...

Robbert 02-02-2008 02:56 AM

Streetlight: yay! RBF: nay!

Jessizzle 02-02-2008 05:23 PM

i think that you are dumb mindless and trying to just fit in with the bandwagon.


clearly RBF put on an awesome live show, i dont care how much their newest albums sucked, their live show is great. they know how to work a crowd and play some fun-loving-head-boppin tunes.

Flagjacket 02-02-2008 11:54 PM

Some has challenged Jess on ska callt he cavalry!!!!!

Kithkin 02-03-2008 03:41 PM

[QUOTE=Jessizzle;15928928]They know how to work a crowd and play some fun-loving-head-boppin tunes.[/QUOTE]

I just wish it would change. It always feels like the same show. And aside from a handful of new songs, it's the same show I first saw 6 years ago.

Flagjacket 02-03-2008 03:44 PM

Like how Green Day hasn't changed their live show since like 93

I've only seen them once but I hear thats the case

So, just because I didn't like RBF it makes me dumb and mindless. I admit, there were a few fun songs, but it was nothing compared to the party SLM brought with them. you don't have to insult people for not liking a particular band dude.

honkybrewster 02-04-2008 12:20 PM

Some bands are just better live.

I, personally, believe Reel Big Fish is one of those bands.

Jessizzle 02-04-2008 01:51 PM

pretty much yeah it does.

saying you didnt like RBF live is like saying you enjoy having aids...



but the point that every set they have is the exact same is valid. but i would still pay to see it each time.

Flagjacket 02-04-2008 02:27 PM

No Jess Reel Big Fish blows

Robbert 02-04-2008 05:23 PM

different people, different tastes I guess
