That just sums up my life at the moment.
And the more I listen to Blue Skies Over Bad Lands the more I love it
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.
And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

Matt Good is fuckin' awesome live! I don't know what I was expecting, but whatever it was, Matt went way beyond it. The crowd kinda sucked, but whatever.
Someone brought a lawn gnome, and Matt was like "I really hope you stole that. I hope you didn't spend 49 bucks on it. It's not worth it, man. .. There's some guy in suburban Thunder Bay right now going 'God demmit! There were four of them this morning! I'm gonna find that punk from down the street and wring his neck!"
Someone threw a bottle of rye on stage. "What, they're throwing bottles now? ..What is it? ... Rye!? I'm insulted! Rye isn't sexy. Rye is for when you hate yourself."
His demo was great. "America's army.. the official game of the US Army. You get to go around.. meet interesting people... kill 'em. If you have a very small penis, this game is for you!"
The sound was perfect. Matt sounds twice as good live as he does on CD. It was great because he was talking -to- the crowd and not -at- the crowd. It wasn't a big choreographed performance. I can't remember the setlist, bit it was obviously mostly new stuff. The crowd didn't really get into it aside from the older songs, which was really crappy. When he busted out Everything is Automatic, people went pretty nuts.
In conclusion, crowd = teh suck, matt = teh good.
I got a broken drumstick and a pick, too. I hope he comes back here, I'd definitely see him again. Wil was a great opener, too. I bought the CD. 4 string song live is really cool.

sounds like you had a great time. I was impressed by his accoustic stuff and how good his voice carried. I never really thought much about his voice till seeing him sing accoustic
So you got the WIL CD. They ran out of them so I couldn't get one. I have to order it. I thought they were good. That guy plays a mean accoustic guitar.
I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

Does anyone know of any place where i can get some Matt Good Buddy Icons?
I've already made half my screen name and my whole profile dedicated to him or the band, so i might as well add in my icon.
did you check out the site/link someone posted in here a few pages back.

did you pre-order from Maple Music?
If so was it jewel case or digi-pak? On the MG board they were saying they received jewel cases.

I can't help but post this:
I should send it to him.
Just because I am sexy, naked, a bassist, and sporting a top hat doesn't make me Duncan Coutts!
do it!
top 3 songs....
Little Terror
Poor Man's Grey
Ex-pats.
Anyone notice the secret track is pretty much a country song?

I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.
