I wanted to go to Simple Plan and didn't. I also wanted to see Alkaline Trio and didn't.

I am concerted out for the time being. I just saw GODSMACK/ADEMA , KORN( and I saw them paly a surprised show at CBGB's in NYC). I also jsut saw Sam Roberts here at a small club. He was alot of fun. I love to see him again. I also went to the KROCK Radio Cluas-Fest last week. I saw teh one with PUDDLE OF MUDD, STAIND, P.O. D and THE Offspring. I have no plans for any upcoming shows. Too expensive now. I am waiting for U2 next year. WORLD TOUR Starts late Spring. YEAH.

Straylight = amazing again ... michelle had a new upbeat song .. otherwise nothing new... Coheed and Cambria a little bit of a dissapointment, they didn't sound to great live and played alot of new stuff while i was there, but my friends wanted to leave, cause they said that coheed couldn't beat straylight

I don't understand the big deal about Straylight anyway.
I mean, honestly, they make nice music. I can't deny that. But beyond that, what do they have? The only reason anyone gives a flying fuck about them is they have a guy from Taking Back Sunday, one of the worst bands from this whole emo craze. And just because they have the TBS guy, they automatically get lead billing on a tour with a guy who is established and has more albums out than Straylight Run has songs (I am talking about Matt Pryor from The Get Up Kids/The New Amsterdams).
Someone please explain to me the logic behind this. Thanks.

i heard matt was behind it because he thought it would be better to have a full band end the show then a solo act, i am sure if matt had a band with hime, it would have been the other way around

Did you go to Sam's Show last month in Ottawa? My friends were front row for him. I just saw him in NYC last week. It was alot of fun. Got to met the band afterwards. Eric and Nuge were so sweet. SO was Sam. I love to see him again, but no dates close for me. I am going to be in Canada in Feb( My friend is going to Nickleback and 3 days grace- I am almost tempted to go also sinc eI will be there)

they co-headlined the tour switching who was in the last spot. Straylight run has amazing lyrics the reveal about what goes on between band members when a band begins to break big. They are nothing like any of the other emo-core music that is around right now. And John is an awesome dude.

No, in order to say they rotated who headlined means that Matt had to headline a show or two, which he said he wasn't going to. So no, there was no "co-headlining" or "rotation" in who played last for the night. Each night it was a band that has existed for three months, or less, that headlined, and it's bothersome. One guy from a crappy band gives you instant emo credibility or something, I dunno.

I saw Good Charlotte last night and was pleasantly surprised having not really enjoyed the last show of theirs I went to. The singalongs that sounded like a junior school choir were still freaky, but the songs were good (as ever) and I even got to hear a couple I hadn't heard before (Emotionless and I Heard You) and Joel and Benji were having fun and Benji made Joel start singing a Smiths song which confused the kiddies and made me laugh
Some of the kids were so young though - it was kind of scary.
And they were filming it for a DVD - yay

it is rumoured to come out in March of next year. I think I read it was going to be called SOLARIS or something like that. Then again it could change.
what is really funny to me is OLP are suppose to release their new CD in March also. They released their DVD same time as U2. I find that really funny.
