I probably wouldn't have gone anyways, just thought you'd like to know.


are you going to any shows Rob? I am going to the first night Ottawa. I might go 2nd night also if tickets are still available.

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

The Alert video was taken down. Matt didn't know that Columbine images were in the video when he posted it. He gives the story about the video in his blog and it explains the process and the problems he's had with this video.

Why can't you go to the show Josh? The Speak Easy says they still have tickets.

I really enjoyed her work with Matt on Loser Anthems. It was extremely well done.

Finally saw the video. I think it was really well put together...don't really get the POINT of the columbine footage, but not offended by it. I think there should have been more of a point to the fact that he was at his old high school. *shrug*

I also think it's funny that it's a 2004 yearbook, and there's a picture of him from the eighties :lol:

I think my favorite is BM, but AOB is creeping up, as well as avalanche. Don't get me wrong, underdogs is a brilliant cd, but i think the others are a bit better. I still love PTD and Change of season.

It is really tough. I've jsut started listening to LOTGA, and it's better than i thought. But i'm going to say that:

BM
Avalanche
AOB
underdogs
LOTGA

Top three are all pretty close.

So I didn't go to the concert. 2 things contributed to this.
First, my gf and my friend who was driving both came down with horrible cases of strep throat. Secondly, we were uncertain that Matt was going to play up until 2pm yesterday afternoon, and by then it just didn't seem feasible to drive up 3 hours to see him. We've been told he's coming back this year, so no big deal. It was a disappointment we didn't go, but it was probably the best decision.
