Speaking of Fest I just found some videos of the Ergs playing at last year's and ho-lee poo poo I would love to go see these guys play, especially since most of the bands I'd like to see are on hiatus/broken up Looking at you, Descendents. Time for a new album already

Wish I could go, I'd love to see the Souls again. I saw them about a month ago in this tiny venue. We had probably 60 people crammed into a space that could hold maybe 30-35. It was the best show I've ever seen. Opened with Hopeless Romantic and Say Anything, and it just got better from there.

I'd like for Mikey to start something new after the Ergs break up I'd also like for the Steinways to stay together long enough for me to see them BENGHAZI 2 fucked around with this message at 18:12 on Sep 7, 2008 |

Oh right on then Part of the reason I dig the Ergs so much is I love his vocals gently caress I just missed a chance to see Used Kids in Albany

Yeah I checked out their myspace. Definitely wouldn't mind seeing them play I'd rather see the Steinways play than just about anybody else at this point. When Ben Weasel and Dan Vapid are your fans, you're doing something right.

Yeah and Fat Mike called Death By Television the best pop-punk album ever Everyone's wrong at some point

I like Death By Television and all but it's not the best pop-punk album ever. If I wanted to be a dick I'd say the Ramones are considered the first pop-punk band and that their first album was the greatest Instead I'm going to say that Teenage Bottlerocket's Warning Device is a better album

Milo is a really close second. The lack of any polishing is what keeps me from enjoying it as much as Cool To Be You. Alternately, 18 months

In other news if the line-up for Insubordination Fest '09 looks like this year's, I'm going to be there in a heartbeat. The Queers have been there the last couple years, here's hoping they come back next year. Ditto The Steinways

gerfatty posted:I wish I could make it to the Fest. It's such a tease for me. They're essentially telling me "oh, we're going to put every last one of your favorite bands on the same ticket. But, they're all going to play AS FAR AS POSSIBLE AWAY FROM WHERE YOU LIVE." I have a friend who's going. I told him if I don't get some swag he's going to have problems. Lately I've gotten on a Bad Religion, Descendents, Dag Nasty, and Black Flag kick. What else should I be listening to? EDIT: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XhQHN_scS0 Oh dear god why did Jason Mraz decide he should cover Blitzkrieg Bop? BENGHAZI 2 fucked around with this message at 05:26 on Oct 29, 2008 |

A hundred times yes the Steinways. Missed The Boat is one of my favorite albums. 20 tracks, 21 minutes, 100 percent perfect. Also check out Teenage Bottlerocket and maybe some Copyrights.

If you get a Visa gift card and decide to order stuff from Interpunk with it, don't. I have to wait for a guy at another forum who works there to get back to me, or for the official response as to why my card was declined. This is pretty bullshit.

I have punk retrospectives every time I give my friend a ride home. We end up cycling through London Calling, Ramones, Queers, Weasel, and next time I'm going to get her to put on Descendents. She doesn't like Descendents I cite this as the reason that I don't want to be more than friends

Oh no I mean I could live with "Eh they're alright I guess" She straight up hates them. If we hadn't been like ten miles from her house at 1 AM I would've made her walk the rest of the way home after she said that.

Paper Triangle posted:1993 looks like Anthem for a New Tomorrow. Is that still good or should I go with Boogada or My Brain Hurts? Go with My Brain Hurts, then Anthem, then Wiggle. My Brain Hurts is easily the best of the three. Then move onto that Queers album, and then uhhh some Mr T Experience, Love Is Dead.

I saw Flatfoot 56 play the other night. They were touring with the Toasters, and my friends were opening that night, so I saw them at a local ska show. Holy. loving. Jesus. I'm not a fan of their music but wow that was an intense show. Couple walls of death, near constant pits, and I hadn't realized before that you're not truly living until you're moshing to Amazing Grace, complete with bagpipes

Your show could consist of personally bringing everyone in the audience to orgasm and it wouldn't balance out if you're the Aquabats

Teenage Bottlerocket and The Ergs! have each put out their own contributions to that Under The Influence series. Volume 4 is TBR covering Have A Blast by Green Day, and The Ergs! covering a Devo song. The TBR cover is so drat good

Everyone needs to check out Whole Wheat Bread, now. It's three black kids from Jacksonville rocking the gently caress out. It's like Ben Weasel visits the ghetto. Greatest goddamn thing ever.

According to another forum I'm part of, they have a new album coming out called Hearts of Hoodlums or something similar. A friend of mine hooked me up with Minority Rules last night and it just blew me away.

I think I saw Four Year Strong when I saw the Bouncing Souls this summer. Let me check... EDIT: Yes. Yes I did. I spent their entire set on a couch over by the merch tables laughing at their synth guy. He was just trying so hard to look intense, kind of like that one guy in Dropkick Murphys who plays the mandolin and poo poo, and failed miserably.

Four Year Strong just seemed to be terrible generic hardcore with a synth guy that tried desperately to be cool to me. But hey you know what Maybe I was jaded because I was waiting for the Bouncing Souls to come on and they could've been rad as gently caress and I would've screamed at them.

I don't know what it is, but I just don't see what's so special about them. I just can't get into them... I've described them to friends as "Bouncing Souls minus anything redeeming." I just can't listen to them.

Oh hey sweet, new Screeching Weasel album this year. Well, not really new or Screeching Weasel, it's Ben and Vapid doing all of My Brain Hurts live, with Cool Kids instead of I Can See Clearly and uhhh This Ain't Hawaii instead of Fathead. Plus a new Riverdales album, a Riptides/Queers split, and a new Queers full-length. Good year.
