[QUOTE=SkaRobotArmy;15203499]but the real question is, do you johnny quest, think they are sellouts?[/QUOTE]

Yes. Anyone that says otherwise is wrong.

:rolleyes:

I got lucky

I saw them in April/Mayish
The played ATEC, every song minus 3 (2 acoustics and the third one on the album) and a couple from RAR (Pints of Guinness, Walking is Still Hones and Reinventing i think)

I was the most badass show ever.

You do these kind of things way too much.

The new acoustic songs are out on iTunes, anyone have them yet?

I would like to hear them but I don't want to pay for them for sure.

Yeah, I was actually thinking about paying. But I probably won't.

Against Me! played on Letterman last night. I'm downloading it now.

[QUOTE=Flagjacket;15208290]:rolleyes:[/QUOTE]

Nope that's actually correct.

Aw man, they played Stop!

[QUOTE=Cliche;15219515]Aw man, they played Stop![/QUOTE]

Take some time to think.


Is this one song really what's important to you?

sigh
 

they're just a band, i don't know why people take everything they do so personally. besides, between tom and warren they have probably done more activism than most people ever will - warren was involved in the opening of 2 infoshops before he was even 19! not to mention all the florida radical activist network work and food not bombs and immokalle farm worker support and youth liberation camps and diy camps and theatre of the oppressed and blah blah blah... and zines and multiple bands and of course, "why freegan". and they're nice as hell and sincere people and you seriously have to have a sense of humor about what they do - i mean warren went train hopping and came back with a homemade 'youth gone wild' tattoo. they're silly! and they don't come from privileged backgrounds, they have worked incredibly hard and played and toured like crazy and it's pretty crappy to get pissed at them for accepting more money for what they're doing. it's ****ing great to see such nice people doing so well...
the first time i heard them play it was in the ocala forest for a may day gathering and it was just tom and kevin, playing on buckets and it was amazing... their shows are still as good as they were then, they're just different. if you don't like change then you're not really punks anyway.

lawl. money's got nothing to do with it, if you've been reading. It's just that the songs suck.

I just uploaded that.

Hah, that was the coolest part. Why do they play lame songs when they do these late night shows? Stop isn't even a song that a casual Letterman show viewer would see and like.

[QUOTE=Anarcho Poser;15221388]lol tom winks at the camera at like 1:10[/QUOTE]


Totally noticed that. I'm working on making a .gif of it!

rad

Tom Gabel is a loser.

Bahh Stop pretty much sucks!

I have come to enjoy Borne On The FM Waves quite a lot, but I just wish it would have been acoustic.


Edit: It is a tatto of the New Wave cover art that Tom has gotten on his elbow?

Yeah, but he's had that for awhile now. I know he had it when I saw them in March.

Allright. I just took a look at your favorites on youtube. Damn that Erik Petersen performance looks awesome!

yea, if you look in the insert he is credited with the cover art so its probably something he made a while ago.

If you don't mind a really long video, the end of this has two (all the battery left on my friend's camera) Erik Petersen songs on it. This was the "Skunkape Circus Tour" that came to my friend's house and a bunch of really cool folk musicians played in his basement. Johnny Hobo, his little brother, Erik, and more.

Yeah, I noticed that tattoo looked a lot like the cover art. It's a cool cover, not so cool album, and a kind of lame tattoo.

[QUOTE=Henrik;15223206]Allright. I just took a look at your favorites on youtube. Damn that Erik Petersen performance looks awesome![/QUOTE]


Yeah, I've definitely watched that video more than a healthy amount.

The "talk to the hand" movement Gable does at the start of Stop always makes me smile. Cool tattoo too, I think the New Wave art is probably my favourite AM! art.

My favorite is by far the cover for Reinventing Axl Rose!
That cover just simply rules!

And I hate that "talk to the hand" movement. I don't know if it means anything really but it just looks stupid.

My favorite cover is ATEC hands down.
