i'd take that money i have like NO gas

[QUOTE=Understanding In a Crash]GIVE MONEY FOR GASOLINE! SAVE TEXAS![/QUOTE]Haha. There are a few places that have run out of gas. Prices have gone up which sucks. We went into Walmart the other day and the prices were $2.48. When we came out, the prices were $2.58. :p Some guy got hit in the balls for trying to steal someone else's water in the parking lot. People are overreacting a bit over here I think. Our part isn't even going to get hit that bad.

When Katrina hit regular gas per gallon was about $3.50 at its peak. It was down to $2.87 here then Rita is raping people now. So by tomorrow I suspect it'll be over $3.00 since when I checked today it was already at $2.99

NY, Long Island.

I live in Buffalo, NY, and gas pricespeaked at about $3.39 per gallon after Katrina hit. It was insane...

Prices dipped back below $3.00 recently, but I expect prices to rise again after Rita. :(

Prices have gone up by about 20 cents in the last 2 days...Not cool.

I'm off guys. Goodnight. :wave:

I'm off as well. G'night everyone. :wave:

Anyone left? I haven't been on in awhile. I put on the new Thursday demos. They are pretty good.

Thursday rules! They're one of my favorite bands at the moment.

I like some of their other stuff better than these demos though.

I'm not sure I've heard the new demos. Are they from the performance at CBGB?

I don't know. They don't have songtitles or a Cd title. I'm pretty sure they prolly aren't.

Hmm, then I definately haven't heard them.

I had the link... You could get them tomorrow or Sunday from me if you haven't gotten them anywhere else.

Okay, cool.

Now I'm really off. I'll talk to you later.

Captain Squeegee and the Soap Suds:
Opener. Pretty big ska band, filling the place of Bedouin Soundclash, and in comparison to that band, yeah, they weren't too good. However, they were an extremely impressive opening band. They're local, and they had a lot of friends/fans in the audience. I was pretty amazed actually. Lots of moshing and skanking going on during a lot of it, plus the singer/frontman was pretty good at keeping the audience involved. The downside was the music. I'd say the best comparison soundwise is to RX Bandits, because there is a lot of diversity, but they're not nearly as good. A quick listen on purevolume confirms they're better live than on CD too. However, I think if they got signed and got to work with a good producer they could release some very good music, there is a lot of talent there, it just doesn't show as well in their songwriting.

Whole Wheat Bread:
Ok, I love these guys' show. It was great. For background, it's a Pop-Punk band from Florida, the thing that makes them standout though is they're black. And ghetto. They make sure you know it too. They started off with a great comedic rap intro, then went into the actual music, which is fun and catchy, and I like the lyrics, they're fun. Once again a high energy performance, and they talked to the crowd a lot, and it was very fun. I was tempted to pick up the CD after the show, but I didn't have enough money with me. They even had a few catchy pieces it was easy to pick up the lyrics to and sing along. I liked it.

Streetlight Manifesto:
Do I need to say they were awesome? Well they were. Fantastic live show. And then some. I was also pushed onto the 2' high stage for a lot of the performance, and I can tell you that being that close makes it even more incredible. Oh, and I was front and center, right in front of Tomas, it was great. However, it was hot. The band was giving out tons of water to the audience, but it was still sweltering there. I believe that is the reason the set seemed to be cut short, and there was no encore either. If they had come back I'm not sure if they or the audience would have passed out first though. They finally got the house lights off about halfway through though, and that was nice. Great set list, and they threw in a lot of random stuff too, like a cover of Radiohead's Creep. Apparently they played a bit of some new songs too and Tomas confirmed a CD release in early 2006. The band also very clearly loves what they're doing, and that makes it even more enjoyable. I need to see them again ASAP.

Whole Wheat Bread sounds quite teh interesting. I might have to check them out. Next month im going to a ska show with The Managers, Tuff Enchant and various local bands. Also a few days later im probably seeing Not Quite Right and Not OK. Should be good times.

Do so, I or Brian I know for sure have the album if you want to give it a listen. Ska shows are the best.

Here's a pic of me at the gig after the show (I'm all sweaty :-\)

Yessir.

I was drenched afterwards, I could have jumped in a pool for the same effect, my fingers were even wrinkly...

Panic! At The Disco has leaked

/me cums

Jesus, I swear this album is going to beon repeat all day. It's so awesome, and I'm only half way through it

/is watching dick and dom in da bungalow

/finds it hilarious
/is a big kid.

I might get Panic! later. I dunno how to feel about them though...

People compare them to FOB, but I feel their album beats out FUTCT by far. It's fun to listen to, and the songs vary quite a lot actually.

The singer does sound very similiar to the singer of FOB, but other then that I don't really think they sound all the same.

Morning all, got a guitar lesson in about an hour so i've gotta practise

EDIT - Turns out he's delayed it till 1 :-/
