arhh, hehe so that's just me beeing a bad listener. thanks anyway. :lol:

I can't wait for the new BOTAR.

[QUOTE=Unseen2k0]Holden Caufield is a character in 'The Catcher in the Rye', and by "a character" I mean the main character. The book follows him around for a few days, and it's a f'ucking great book. That book has changed many peoples lives.

Hemingway- Famous writer, and pretty well known for being a dick. My favorite book by him is "A Farewell To Arms" but it's a downer book. He wrote tons though, many short stories aswell that you can find online.

Salinger was the guy who wrote "The Catcher in the Rye". That was his first novel, and he never published anything again. He wrote for the rest of his life(If he died- I honestly don't know, I've looked but can never find information on him) and never published a thing. After his books success, he became a hermit from the media.

Camus- Another writer, wrote things like "The Stranger", "The Plague", "The Rebel". Very good writer, he died in 1960 in a car accident driving to Paris. Some people say he drove off the road and killed himself. Honestly, I don't know. I could have the wrong person, all I know is I've read many books by Camus and he died too young.[/QUOTE]

Not to seem rude or anything, but why did you bump this back up to post something as dumb as that? I already posted what KDC meant. 6 days ago.

Just incase anyone wants it, I have the Gimp CD on Soulseek now.

Tenpinster.

And for those of you who aren't strong lovers of this band like I am:
Gimp -> Catch 22 -> Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution -> Streetlight Manifesto.
Gimp was Tomas's first band, they were a punk band with a little ska, that later became Catch 22 after adding a trumpet(shortly followed by more brass).

Chewy String and Gay P'orn All in one!!

i've been listening to streetlight manifesto for about 4 months and after falling in love with them, I decided to go out and buy Keasby Nights which I like just as much if not more then streetlights self titled album, does anyone know when streetlight is going to come out with a new cd or if catch 22 is gonna tour again after streetlights tour is finished? (i think they're still on tour)

what I meant to ask, is Thomas going to rejoin catch 22 for some touring

Tomas is well out of Catch 22 and will never return. Streetlight is supposed to put out a new album around Christmas time this year. "Jan 2006" according to Victory.

I was going to SLM, but played poker instead. Must have been the 5th time I was going to see them and ended up not going to see them.

Can't you please upload it in the YSI thread?? Which of the orginal members of Catch were also in Gimp? How many copies excist of that cd?

Does anyone read the streetlight/botar message boards? You can read through 100 threads and still only learn about five facts. Apparently, the next botar album will be called 99 songs of the revolution, and might all be covers.

Unless of course, thomas uncharacteristically changed his mind

I can't give you facts on this, and for that I apologize, but I will try. From what I've been told the core Catch 22(drums, guitar, bass) were Gimp. Tomas got bored with punk though, so they added a trumpet(Kevin?) and thought it sounded a little thin, so they added trombone aswell. That CD only had a very limited number of copies(Look at BOTARs first release).

Yeah, I do. There have been rumors of that CD name for a matter of years though. Tomas said in an interview(which I posted early in this thread I believe) that the CD will have 99 songs on it. No one is sure but him though.

You said streetlights self titled album, I thought they only had Everything went numb?
can someone clear this up

Yes, all they have is Everything Goes Numb. That's what he meant.





That GIMP stuff is actually good. I like it alot.

Ska Pirate could yo upload the Gimp and BOTAR as a .rar on yousendit? the other site isn't working for me

Sorry, I can't

ok thx anyway

[url]http://www.skachilles.com/music[/url]

There is where I got my SM stuff.

What is mealticket anyway?


And that site is a lot faster than the one I gave. Plus it has a streetlight concert



edit: I have a stupid question. Who runs skachilles? Is it thomas's brother achilles?

Mealticket is a ska band from southern California. Was a band, I should say. SkAchilles hosted it for personal reasons and just sort of left it up... forever.

I know SkAchilles owns it, but 3 people(including him) pay for it. I'm not sure the relationship to SM, but I assume it's something stronger than a fan. It started when Tomas left Catch 22 or something, the members there went from Catch 22 forums to those and got to keep their post count(in May 2002). I believe SkAchilles real name is "Matt"(I think he posted that once).

I'm listening to Gimp right now and it's pretty good, sounds like Catch 22 without the ska.

Gimp was probably just as good as Catch 22- I enjoy their version of "Supernothing" more than Catch 22's. But Catch 22 did do a lot more stuff by adding horns.

^ i think every punk band sounds better if you add horns, even when rancid came out with "Life Wont Wait" I thought that was better then alot of their earlier stuff

For whom it may concern:

I have uploaded "Rules of the Game" to SoulSeek - Tenpinster.
This was Catch 22's demo before KN. It has 2 songs that never made it to KN on it. Only a few hundred copies were made and they were cassette, so quality isn't perfect, but fun to listen to.

Have a good day.

and for those who don't have soulseek, it's right here:

[url]http://skachilles.com/music/rotg[/url]


but soulseek is probably faster

anyone know where to buy BOTAR merch?

Right now you can't, they are redoing their webstore. But when it comes back up, go to [url]www.streetlight.com[/url] --> Store --> Shop online.

There you are. (And for those of you who ask "Why not use [url]www.acousticbandits.com[/url] and go to that store? Well, their link to the store doesn't work.)

Gimp should be added to the title of this thread.

BOTAR didn't really [i]become[/i] SM. They're both just part of Risc. Tomas's little doodle explaining it all:

Kid, what are you talking about? Are you a complete idiot? I HATE flaming people, I always try to use logic, but wtf? Are you being sarcastic or something?

Do you think Catch 22 BECAME Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution? Dear god, slap yourself!

The arrows were following Tomas from band to band, kid. He was in BOTAR who put out a demo, then he did Streetlight, who put out a CD.

What is wrong with you?

Edit: If you said that just so you could post something we've all seen(Or I'd hope- You may find your note there is about 4 years old) then just post it. You don't need a reason to post something related to Tomas.
