Maybe the video will be cool, and will make your life easier.

High school's a bitch. Thank God I'm out.

Nobody at my school has ever heard of OLP. Well, now they have, because I listen to them, but they've never heard OLP... I doubt many of them watched Live 8. There aren't a lot of music people at my school.

Thats right. The vest. It distracted everyone around him, like the other people on stage to the point where they forgot how to play their instruments. Tragic.

It is on display at one of Maria's musuems in Cali..That would nic eto see since it is over 200 years old..

Wait, that was real? :lol:

They showed it for like 2 seconds and just like pointed back to it on stage... I assumed it was just a fake copy for emphasis on... something. :lol:

Anyway, my thoughts on OLP's performance:

The Leonard Cohen cover was beautiful. Probably brought down the level of energy in the crowd if you were there, but to watch it from the comfort of home, I really enjoyed it.

"Where Are You" sounded flat, but I think the main problem was technical, not the band. The levels were crazy off.

"Innocent" was perfect for the day. I thought it sounded fine, and I've always enjoyed it live... that's right, I said it! And I don't care what the rest of you think!! NEENER NEENER!!!

i like innocent too. i just didn't want them to play it that day.

it bugged me how raine kept on tetlling people to register their 'vote.' it isn't a vote!!

why wouldn't you want them to play it for live 8? it was very fitting for the cause i thought. and big deal, he said vote... people still listened and signed the petition.

no, it was because i'm selfish. i wanted to hear another new song. the voting thing just bugged me, the wording of it.

To be honest, despite not being a big fan of the song either, I wouldn't totally judge it by that performance.

[color=#5b00ff]Yes Itwa real and no a ake. The hd Chhris Tuckertake it out from Cali, and it ha to be rerturned for SUnday mornng cause itis on Dispalya t he museum.

I too think Innocent fit the da. I i sad in ap revioius post the song to me always tanslated as finding strength and hope when things are bleak.. How you go on.. As for it live, I nver thought they did a good performac of it live cause Raine can't really sing it live. Same with Somewhere Out THere. It always souned to me like he was straining his voice.. Doesn't mean I think they are bad songs. Just not his best live..
