(I'm not claiming I actually do know)

People who have the file will want you to get it on the hub. There is no sending it through MSN for you to post it elsewhere. If you don't have hub access, you are screwed.

Nope, that's not how it works. I'm the hub king, and I've sent it over AIM to everyone who asked me, but I'm on a dialup connection so that has taken a lot of my bandwidth. Also, Matt and I are trying to work out a way to get the hub files to people who can't use the hub, there's a thread about that on the trading forum.

If you folks who can't access the hub want to spread it by instant messenger or MSN, go for it.

Yeah, I just don't feel like joining the hub because I'm not huge into OLP anymore. I mean, their older stuff is cool, but I just don't feel like joining.

But then again, I know people here will send it to me. I mean, as long as there's people like Josh (faNINor) on the board, people can get files if you ask him nicely. Shit, he's the one that got me my first OLP live show, OLP music video, hell, he's just awesome. He keeps himself online until you can get the entire transfer, even if he's on a slow connection. He rocks.

Back to the main topic.

Another point that needs to be made is, that this song was already played live and on television at that. And this song was on the christmas video clips they put out. So it's not like OLP is trying to keep this song a secret for a huge release. It's a song that they know is already floating out there, and figure why not throw the studio version into the mix. Sorta like "Whatever" a song that has been played live a ton of times.

I think there is a possibility that we could see this track somewhere on the album, but it's just as likely not to be on there, and even more as likly that it will not be a single.

Personally, I think "Don't Ask Why" will be the first single

There was a short video that came out as a holiday "gift" to the fans, showing clips of the guys working in the studio. In the background, it played clips from Not Afraid and another song called Don't Ask Why.

I wish we coulda heard that one instead of not Afraid

Joe Cooler · Post by **Joe Cooler** » 6/16/2004, 12:04 pm

Agreed.

Axtech · Post by **Axtech** » 6/16/2004, 12:09 pm

Actually, I just re-watched the holiday thing, and Don't Ask Why sounds hella better than Not Afraid.

Here's to hoping.

Not afraid wont be first single, it will be so old by the time it comes out. (well its already old)
