I saw them live with OLP at a festival back in May.

Good, but don't go into it expecting SP.

i HEARD (key word) that they weren't that great from my bro, but my friend said that they kicked some serious ass. It would be pretty hard to picture Billy Corgan and no SP like stuff. It's just weird. But, open mind about it now, i'll have to wait til i listen to them.

They're headlining the 89X Christmas show this year, and would wanna see it, but Good Charlotte will be there, and I cannot tolerate those 14 year old "punks" who wear GC shirts and think they're so damn hardcore.
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.

Yeah i know i wanted to go for zwan and the used but the rest of the line up sucks, your gonna have a bunch a people there wanting to hear GC and New Found Glory, even though i like NFG first album seeing them live ruins it.


back to the topis yeah zwan is awesome, not much different than the pumpkins though

Trust company is decent and ZwaN Kicks Ass!!!
NFG used to be really good, dont like thier new stuff though.
and I liked GC before Lifestyles got everyone including pop/rap fans into them... their ok though

I despise GC and Trust Company. I liked NFG, and their old stuff was amazing, but the only reason I own Sticks and Stones is that Alkaline Trio sing on one song, gotta love background vocals. If I wanted to see Boxcar, I'd pay the extra $10 and see Blink-182 which is an established band and have some pretty catchy songs, and have been known to support good music like Alkaline Trio. I never got into the Vines, and I would love to see The Used and Zwan. I am seeing The Used and Finch, who is gettin big around Detroit, in February which will be sweet. If 89X would play Alkaline Trio and support their shows, I would be fucking ecstatic, but they don't, so radio boycott is fine by me.

Ahh, I'm going to that show too, mainly to see The Used though, I'm so excited! I have Finch's album, but haven't had enough time to properly listen to it yet. I can't wait until February!
