Hello here! I'm new, I'll make it short :
I didnt read the whole thread (guess why) and that question as surely been answered a thousand time. Here it is : Why Streetlight Manifesto is named Streetlight Manifesto? I always wanted to know that but found nothing on the internet... I hope somebody can answer..

Also, hello to anyone who will be there next Sunday at Quebec city :)

Because they think it sounds cool

Dammit, they're here tonight but I'm not going. It's kind of a good thing I never bought a ticket though because I'm sick.

From wikipedia: A [B]manifesto[/B] is a public declaration of principles and intentions, often political in nature

Streetlight Manifesto makes me think of just a common guy on the street telling people what he thinks, or giving them his 'manifesto'. Just guessing though

Ho, thanks that makes sense!

Seeing them next Wednesday or something. More excited to get hammered and dance than for the actual show. Seen them so many times.

im seeing them tomorrow for my 3rd time, wooooooo sold out show.

I still haven't seen them :(:(

I'm seeing the Slackers this Saturday and Streetlight next Friday.

I'm more excited for the Slackers.

he played a few inbetween songs ala one mississipi, like 3 of them. one of them was the point counterpointy sounding one

and they played dear sergio!

Saw em last night. Played Dear Sergio and tons of other stuff including LINOLEUM which was the best part of the night. I had to wait outside for like an hour though because it sold out.

I was at that show.

They're playing here in June. I'll probably try to go if they're headlining because the only time I saw them, they opened for terrible bands that Jess likes and played for like 30-40 minutes tops.

that's good sometimes though because then you don't have to sit through chit bands.

True. And it turns out that show was tonight. Whoops!

aw mannnnn

I really wish I made it to that show

it's a wonderful life was awesome live... so was the botar version of dear sergio they played.

i saw you like 16 times on the way home and i felt like a stalker.. except we were going to the same station so it wasnt that weird...

how come i ALWAYS see you on the way home, and never at the show?? maybe you secretly stand outside wishing you could come in.

I finally got to listen to the "new" album. I dug it. Should probably listen again though.

Anyone remember the talk about the "99 songs of revolution"? ... Well, it looks like they are actually gonna make it!

From their site:


[I] 09.09.2008 | New Album(s) News
Ok, technically it's not a new original record, but here it is: A few years ago, when BOTAR (Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution) released it's first (and so far only) record, there was a mention in the liner notes of a large project called "99 Songs of Revolution". This is a collection of 99 cover songs, spanning all kinds of genres, all kinds of artists. Now, a few years later, it's all going down. And here are the details. Some of them, at least.

The 99 Songs of Revolution Project will consist of 8 full length records. Two from SM, two from BOTAR, and two each from two other SM related groups. Yes, this is indeed the record that Victory mistakingly posted as coming out in Oct of 08. Not sure how they got that date, but it was never even a possibility. The first SM record for 99SOR will be out in early 2009, simultaneously with another of the 8 CDs (no, not the BOTAR one). Victory will be putting out the CDs and mp3s and Pentimento will be releasing and distributing the vinyl. We are aware of our reputation to take forever to release records and miss our self imposed deadlines, so we are not giving anyone solid dates, not even our labels. Early 09 release, that's it. We are, though, working hard on it. The demos are all but done and we head into the studio to begin tracking in October. Our upcoming tour schedule, as you know, is borderline impossible/insane, so cut us some slack.

This will be a nice way for us to get into the studio and put out some "new" music as well as tide you guys over until our next full length. It's been a project that's been on the back burner for too long, and it's time to do something about it. Stay tuned to this site as well as the Pentimento site for more info over the coming weeks. Also make sure to keep peeking in on our other sites, as we're in the middle of working on a few projects that have been dormant for way too long.

I'm excited about this!

Holy s'hit thats epic. I'm excited and worried at the same time.

I'm gonna be seeing them live in December, and I have Everything Went Numb, Somewhere in the Between and Keasbey Nights. Will there be any more albums that I need so I know everything at the gig?

That is it. I'm a bit sad that I cannot see them October 13th, but I've seen them twice.

I thought there were only those two.

Does their drummer play his kick with only one foot?
