I hope this is goodbye wrote:Anyone here notice that Chris Carrabba took away everything that made him unique? It was just him and an acoustic guitar. Then a band and an acoustic guitar. Now it's a band.
Is Chris Carrabba really the only person you've ever seen play acoustic guitar by himself (or herself)? That's not at all what made him unique. Don't get me wrong, I love(d) the solo acoustic dashboard, but the full band is awesome as well.

Brutus is an honorable man
It's just coincidence that oil men will wage war in an oil rich land
And this one goes out to my man taking cover in the trenches with a gun in his hand
Then gets home and no one flinches when he can't feed his fam...
we are the brand new beatniks. we are the down and outers.
we are the bleeding hearts, beating syncopated, broken rhythm.
our speed is often break neck. we need to slow it down.
tired of being sleepless. tired of being broken.
I considered everything about him to make him unique. He was always packaged as "The guy from FSF with an acoustic guitar." I don't know, I guess I always like him doing his stuff alone better. Now with a band, it just seems like FSF again.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.
ok, that's understandable. I just didn't understand how playing acoustic guitar solo was "unique."

Watch Letterman tonight because a better band, The New Amsterdams, will be on. If you like The Get Up Kids, you'll like this, because it has the lead singer from TGUK in it.

are balcony seats at this place good?? That's all they have so i havent bought mine yet. I still want to go, but i'm not sure if my friends like the bands enough to settle for balcony.
I've seen him once. He was the last opening act before OLP, and it was really hot that day, it was bad. The crowd was getting crazy and throwing shit, and he started yelling at the crowd. It was funny. Like I am going to listen to a 5'7 guy anyway. He is a damn nice guy though.
