Someone (July 25, 2005)

Some christian who lives with his parents and is "telling it like it is" is a douchebag. And let's not forget letting Duval put a record out.

Someone (July 26, 2005)

he lives with his girlfriend in santa cruz. all personal opinion aside, so what if he puts out a band you dont like. get over your own personal insecurities instead of gettin your dick in a knot about shit you dont care about. what have you done with your life?

Someone (July 26, 2005)

i have cheated on my math quiz

Someone (July 26, 2005)

Alot! You colon cowboy. I hope the dick I chopped off your mother will un-tie now.

Someone (July 26, 2005)

you again? i though you were told to fuck off a long time ago?

Someone (July 26, 2005)

hummm..... I can't think of another person who makes indie music more worth listening to... if you're seriously calling him a douchebag then you must like A Simple Plan.

Someone (July 26, 2005)

Fuck simple plan, fuck anti-flag, fuck mike park, fuck hippies..

Someone (July 26, 2005)

that he isn't

Fuzzy (justin) (July 25, 2005)

Unsurprisingly, I'm fucking stoked for this album. The song that talks about the American flag is so fucking good. I have no clue what the name is.

Tahoejeff (July 25, 2005)

Fuck the guy above me...Mike Park is great. And this song is pretty damn good too.

Yeah, fuck Fuzzy. That bastard has had it coming for a while. -adam

Fuzzy (justin) (July 25, 2005)

I always knew there was something oddly homosocial about our interactions....

AlmostPunkEnough (July 26, 2005)

goddamn right. i can't wait to hear the whole album.

His last one was on Subcity also

Someone (July 26, 2005)

better distro on sub city

Someone (July 26, 2005)

Nope, he just doesn't feel right putting out his own solo stuff. This isn't about distro folks.

Someone (July 26, 2005)

yeah, you CHODE!

Someone (July 25, 2005)

this new song is great

Someone (July 25, 2005)

And here's your grade today... Oh wait, that was two years ago. Damn I still have that song stuck in my head.

Where can I get a copy?

Someone (July 26, 2005)

i'm assuming the sub city website? maybe the mike park website?

swingline (July 26, 2005)

i'm not a poser sell out you fag.

crossfiyaaa (July 25, 2005)

Mike Park is pretty darn tizziiiiyiitte.

Someone (July 25, 2005)

Fucking hippie. He can never be forgiven for putting out Duval records. Yeah, Bike for Peace when you have your parents to pay your rent and let you "run your business" out of the house. This is why the current state of punk stinks, it's all upper-middle class spoiled-trust fundies "sticking-it to the man" and eating out of the man's hands.

Uhm...He doesn't live at his parents house anymore, didn't you get the memo? -Dante

Someone (July 26, 2005)

what trust funds? he bussed tables and fuckin made his own life. seriously ,find something FACTUAL to get pissed about

Someone (July 26, 2005)

haha, ANYMORE. Seems like there is some truth to what this guy is saying then

Someone (July 26, 2005)

Yeah, I know I sure I never lived with my parents.

Someone (July 26, 2005)

yea bro, my parents abandoned me at the hospital. i never lived with my parents either!

Someone (July 26, 2005)

I can't believe someone with so much 'cred'(if you will) could be bitched at. I think I am offically gonna stop ever reading these posts. I mean if you're in indie music for like 15+ years and people still have a problem with you... then the scene is the problem not artists.

Someone (July 26, 2005)

are you saying the scene will only be good if its started by poor struggling people? thats the stupidest fuckin sentence ive ever heard

Someone (July 26, 2005)

i agree, thats what REAL punk and hardcore was about, a STRUGGLE. I'm not sure about indie music though. but thats why music sucks now and has no meaning

Someone (July 26, 2005)

yup, nothing else to complain about so they whine about girls

Someone (July 26, 2005)

Yes, That's what I'm saying. Poor struggling people tend to make "art". 1.Listen to the Delta Blues, not the blues played by white office jockeys and children of idle rich, it's pretty damn good. 2. Early Elvis is great, He was poor white trash born on dirt floor, driving a truck for living and cut his first record to give to his mother as a gift, he WAS talented and had soul. 3. Curtis Mayfield dammit! I could continue for days, but you should go down stairs and have some of that hot dinner that was made for you under your parents' roof. And try not to suffer for real, it might open your eyes to a whole new range of people, emotion and places you've been sheltered from.

Blow me Mike Park.

Someone (July 26, 2005)

Mike Park rules.

Someone (July 26, 2005)

FINALLY!!! Thank God!!! Sounds amazing! thank god he played my living room =)

Someone (July 26, 2005)

Mike Park is a nice guy, who may have money(i dont know his situation on money), but also GIVES money and time to the community. How can you morons bash a guy for having money when your using a computer? Sell your computer and give the money to a womens shelter or something and go live like jesus, ya rich scum.

Someone (July 26, 2005)

good counter-argument - NOT!

Someone (July 26, 2005)

I'm not using a computer, the witchdoctor on my reservation is de-coding my smoke signals right now, and that's how we are communicating right now. I would never live like Jesus, you know, like a dirty hippie, always hanging aroung Jewish men, not getting any and dying from a few nail wounds. Put down your latest copy of Bright Eyes and start swinging sausage at men down at the local interstate rest stop and maybe you can feel what it's like to be sexy and wanted.. kiss kiss

Dante3000 (rich) (July 26, 2005)

Wow....Just wow...That was really a lot better than what I was expecting (and I like Mike Park. Catchy, while maintaining pop stylings. Good For you Mike Park. Oh, and I totally agree. How dare he have parents with money (which I don't know if they do). I know when I was born I totally chose parents who didn't have money. Then I had so little motivation that any money I did get I never thought of starting a lable for bands I like and respect. I've totally just sat on my ass my whole life and that's why Mike Park is a fucking sell out chump. -Dante

Someone (July 26, 2005)

Asian Man was supposed to be re-releasing the Skankin Pickle albums this year. What the hell happened to that? He should prioritize. Remaster the Skankin' Pickle albums, then do the solo crap.

And Mike Park is model for all of us, I will start asking my parents if I can start my organic lemonade stand in their front yard and sleep in their hammock. And then I can tell the wotld how to live.

It's official, punknews.org is no longer relevant as a legit news service. I suggest taking down the board immediately or make it so people have to sign in using their email addresses as their login name. That will end this anonymous posting bullshit.

how does that comment make the news posts irrelevant? also, why dont you go register a login? - jones the bones - stevejones8770@yahoo.com - dont get me wrong, i'm not for calling mike a gook. i have immense respect for the guy. but dont let these stupid comments get to you and register a login

I hate Mike Park, but it has nothing to do with him being Asian. He's just a child of priviledge.

4+ Replies

SteveJonesTheRealBones (July 26, 2005)

so what if he's a child of priviledge? i really dont know if his parents had money or not, but is that any reason to hate him? thats all the more reason to respect him in my book, since he has money (again i dont know if he REALY does) and doesnt flaunt it or as far as i can tell blow it. he is charitable, runs a record label that keeps cd's at incredibly low prices, and makes decent music. basically, you dont "hate" mike park, since i am sure you probably havent met him even, you are jealous of mike park - jones the bones - stevejones8770@yahoo.com

Someone (July 26, 2005)

I guess you're a trust fundie- extended teet of the parents' kid too. His music blows. He wouldn't be where he is today if he didn't have the parental crutches.

SteveJonesTheRealBones (July 27, 2005)

ha! i wish i had a trust fund. life would be alot easier. all i know is the guy puts out music for cheap. he is very charitable, and maybe if you dont like this solo stuff, his bruce lee band stuff and skankin pickle stuff was great. i dont know how old you are, but if you hate people for the sole fact that they have money and you dont, then you need to grow up. if you were a parent? dont you want your kids to have an easier life than you did? i hope that when i have kids i can put them through school without them being in debt to the state...and if that makes my kids children of priveledge, so be it...at least i know i wont raise them to hate people just based on how much money they have - jones the bones

Someone (July 27, 2005)

beautifully put -kliph

Someone (July 28, 2005)

Hahahaha Jones just owned the fuck out of you PS _ Mike Park rules!

Someone (July 28, 2005)

That's right it's all about ownership to you "children of the parental crutch".

Someone (July 26, 2005)

Yeah, I hate him too because he's a child of priviledge. That's so wrong. Man, he's the worst.

Someone (July 26, 2005)

fuck this bore of "man"
