tru dat. It's just a short tour, to support the greatest hits album.
"When looking up there, I just felt whole, like I belonged. Like one day I too would shine my most brilliant. Sitting there also made me think about sitting through services at my little country church back home. About that never-changing congregation of the same sixty-seven people and everyone has known you since before you were born. Now, out here in the real world, everything just seemed more vivid than when I used to sit in that little pew. That pew that was now so, so far away from where I was. I feared I had somehow left God behind there, too. I feared he was somehow just sitting there, saving my seat on the fifth pew from the front row, just waiting on me to come back. I left so quickly, I worried that he may not have noticed I was gone. And, now, I’m just too far away to find. So he’s just sitting there, patiently waiting on me to come back. I closed my eyes and prayed a moment. I hoped more than anything that he could still hear me." -an excerpt from my novella, A Sea of Fallen Leaves.

So basically Everclear is an Everclear cover band? They could have come up with a more creative name :lol:

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...

But Brutus is an honorable man...

yeah the lead vocalists always seem to think that they own the band and can keep on going with whomever as members, just as long as the lead singer stays!

If you're that mad, close your eyes. If they have the same singer you'll never know the difference.

As long as the new members are talented it should still be good.

Queens Of The Stone Age-Someone's In The Wolf

Once you're lost in twillights's blue
You don't find your way, the way finds you...

Tempt the fates, beware the smile
It hides all the teeth, my dear,
What's behind them...

So glad you could stay
Forever

He steps between the trees, a crooked man
There's blood on the blade
Don't take his hand

You warm by the firelight, in twilight's blue
Shadows creep & dance the walls
He's creeping too..

So glad you could stay
Forever

Yes, I'm sure it'll be good. I just would've liked to see the whole band together. The point of a concert is not to have to close my eyes to enjoy it haha. I like seeing the band, and this band is not EVERCLEAR, its Art Alexakis and 2 guys I don't know.

Hmm actually, there's now 5 members. That should make things pretty interesting as I'm sure most songs will sound very different. There should also be more depth and variety, something EC was criticized probably most about during their career.

It was awesome... they sounded even better (not a surprise... so much more depth). Art sounded excellent (tho he looks like he's dying) and the other guys were really good. The songs naturally sounded a bit different, so it was very exciting.

But moreso than I expected... I never met him before, so when I saw him up close, he looks very old and very skinny, not what I expected. Still an extremelyyyyy nice guy tho.

Nope, no pics... got all my CDs signed tho. Like 7 of 'em. I would have liked to talked to him more if stupid girls weren't talking about nonsense for 20 minutes straight. You could even tell he'd had enough of them.
