I think they have better luck in the UK.

SalsaShark (January 12, 2006)

I see some bands I'd like to see there, mostly guilty pleasures. In a festival setting, I wouldn't mind seeing a little bit of My Chem, TBS, Lostprophets (haha), and... I think that's it. I'd also like to see Goldfinger, The Bled, and Angels and Airwaves, because I wonder what it's going to sound like.

Wow, for having such a rad username, you sure do listen to some shitty music.

Dante3000 (rich) (January 12, 2006)

Oh, like from Clerks. I just got that, haha. That's funny. But for real, shitty taste right there. -Dante

CrookedSuperhero (January 12, 2006)

Cue "i don't care what you think" reply.

SalsaShark (January 12, 2006)

You're always so rude to me for nothing. I really can't figure out what I apparently did to you. I'm really sorry if I don't live up to the punker-than-thou standards assholes like you hold people up to, I didn't say they were neccessarily the best bands ever, I said I wouldn't mind seeing them in a festival setting. Now, here's my last.fm top 20 of what I actually listen to: Against Me! The Lawrence Arms Kid Dynamite The Bouncing Souls The Epoxies A Wilhelm Scream The Soviettes Descendents Jawbreaker Teenage Bottlerocket Lucero Screeching Weasel Bigwig Smoke or Fire The Briefs The Unlovables Avail Latterman The Suicide Machines Lagwagon With that, I'd kindly ask that you stop being a dick about things.

CrookedSuperhero (January 12, 2006)

It's the internet, Sally Sensitive. And don't give me some list of bands that you like. I'm willing to bet that's the same list 90% of people here have.

Dante3000 (rich) (January 12, 2006)

'Cept my list involves a lot more raging house music. And a fair share of Crunk Rap. And if you don't like it you can suck it! -Dante

SalsaShark (January 12, 2006)

Wow, thanks for being an asshole. I usually really like you, but that was really a dick thing to say. I don't listen to all those on a daily basis, I just said I wouldn't mind seeing them. Also, look at my last.fm for actual music taste, those are ones I'd just see in a festival setting.

sickboi (chris) (January 12, 2006)

"Wow, thanks for being an asshole. I usually really like you, but that was really a dick thing to say." Settle down chief. I listen to lots of shit people make fun of me for: -Eminem -Jay Z -Hatebreed -Transplants Do I care what someone else thinks? Not really.

SalsaShark (January 12, 2006)

I'm not going to lie if I say I don't care what people think, because like all people, I do. Your opinion means more to me than some Anonymous one because I admire your taste in music and think you contribute some good stuff to the site. Whatever.

Dante3000 (rich) (January 12, 2006)

How can I falter when I'm the Rock of Gibraltar. Had to get out the boat so I could walk on water. -dante

sickboi (chris) (January 12, 2006)

"Can't Knock tha Hustle" is my fucking anthem.

ThreeChordsAndTheTruth (January 12, 2006)

hahaha, I didn't know anyone on PN listened to the Transplants seriously, let alone you.

sickboi (chris) (January 12, 2006)

Its like pro-wrestling. Midly entertaining, no credibility.

ThreeChordsAndTheTruth (January 12, 2006)

I'll admit that I liked the one they did with Davey Havok because I liked his vocals on it.

SteveJonesTheRealBones (January 12, 2006)

Angels and Airwaves are probably the most talented and creative band talking about music and talking about making songs out there right now - jones the bones - stevejones8770@yahoo.com

Someone (January 12, 2006)

MCR, TBS, Atreyu, The Ataris and Goldfinger?It's like the organizers of this festival went on to this message board, found out which bands were the most hated and then decided to put them all together on one bill.

sickboi (chris) (January 12, 2006)

I have this mental image of Angels and Airwaves getting ready to play, and just as Tom starts to strum his first note, there's Mark, hiding behind the stack, pulling out chords and connections like that general did in Forrest Gump, right before his speech on the mall.

Dante3000 (rich) (January 12, 2006)

Wait...Is there a band called Taint? I take back everything bad I ever said about this wonderful fest. It will be a celebration of all things amazing and beautiful. -Dante

Someone (January 12, 2006)

oh you gays..i'm mean GUYS...

AngelsAndAirwavesRules (January 12, 2006)

Angels And Airwaves is probably the most influential band to hit the scene since the release Bowling For Soup's Punk Rock 101 in 2003. Thank you, Tom Delonge.

I'm pretty sure anyone who suicide bombs this thing gets martyrdom.

Someone (January 12, 2006)

I was really excited about AVA before I saw that video of the band standing around selling themselves to me. It was fake and sickening. If they want hype, then release a song that proves they're the real deal. Enough fucking talk! I havent even heard this shit and I'm tired of it.

Someone (January 12, 2006)

I know a lot of people say this, but this HAS to be the worst fucking line up I've ever seen on this site. This is like looking out your window and seeing a dinosaur. I just can't believe it. Wow...wow.

Someone (January 12, 2006)

Does anyone else find it funny that there is an interview with Greg Graffin on the main page of Suicidegirls.com? Best part: DRE: Have you ever slept with a Goth girl? GG: In the early days there was no distinction between Goth and punk girls. Bad Religion has a lot of Goth credibility because on our first album cover we put a huge woodcut on the back of our first album. That became a symbol for Bad Religion. So in the early days yes I was with a lot of Goth girls. DRE: What’s good about Goth girls in bed? GG: I’m not sure their style dictates how good or bad they are in bed. DRE: So they never tried to stab you? GG: No in fact some of them are just too disturbed to be any good in bed. They’re strictly for show. DRE: What’s your favorite pornography? GG: Very plain. Regular porno. I’m not into urination or defecation or S & M or anything that could

That's the sexxiest thing I've ever seen on suicide girls. MMMmmm...Greg so middle aged and unattractive..tell me your dirtiest fantasies, but do it all sexy like. -Dante P.S. Do you think Greg can talk dirty without using a five syllable word?

Someone (January 12, 2006)

I used to laugh when idiot 16 year olds told me how Bad Religion basically invented punk and had all the credibility that was possible for a band to possess. Now that the band is basically down to masturbating live on webcams and talking about screwing chicks and watching porn, well...I guess I'll just laugh even harder. -Ken

Someone (January 12, 2006)

of course bad religion didn't invent punk rock.... obviously you did.

danperrone (January 12, 2006)

and don't forget, bayside had just recently lost their drummer in a tragic car accident

Someone (January 12, 2006)

This makes me even more un-proud to be english. I'll give it a name SHIT.

Someone (January 12, 2006)

What date is this going on?

Someone (January 12, 2006)

Cheer up, haters! Maybe Propagandhi will be there manning a kebab stand and hurling free insults with every purchase.

Someone (January 12, 2006)

More liek GIVE IT A REST fest.

Someone (January 12, 2006)

I heard Wattie's gonna fuck shit up during this fest.

Someone (January 12, 2006)

WHY CANT WE GET THAT KINDA TOUR IN AUSTRALIA? WE GET A CRAPPY TASTE OF CHAOS INSTEAD. :( Lucky everyone else im the uk -Kaz

Someone (January 12, 2006)

this gig could have been good if it wasn't in the fucking cattle shed that is the MEN arena. why the hell would u want to spend to whole days in that hell hole? this thing really needs to be outdoors. i know the weather sucks here but gettin pissed on for 2 days would be way better.

jonodeath (January 12, 2006)

Angels and Airways are actually a "Born To Be Wild" (the chorus of the song) coverband. They just play it for 56 minutes on repeat. At least, that's what i'm told.

Pacer (January 13, 2006)

What idiot forgot to include the dates of the festival in the piece? Oh right, aubin.

Someone (January 15, 2006)

You know what, I cant stand teh bands playing this, but this festival is NOT aimed at me and is not aimed at most of you people, so stkop crying becaue you wont go and it will have no effect on you whatsoever.

Someone (May 23, 2006)

I had no idea that Punknews was such an elitist jerk-off fest. Are you guys going to pull out your dicks and measure who's is biggest next?

And yes, I like most of those bands... and I've probably been listening to punk longer than most of you were born.
