Godfather (February 6, 2006)

victory really is that bad....they don't deserve to play at a stage where a non-victory bands will be performing.....however, streetlight manifesto and with honor can play on the non-victory stages if by chance they get announced

iconoclast (February 6, 2006)

and if snapcase happened to have a reunion show and somehow played on the warped tour, they could play on non-victory stagest as well.

Someone (February 6, 2006)

I think Comeback Kid, the band With Honor wants to be, should be able to play anywhere they want as well.

Godfather (February 6, 2006)

yeah, i'm sure there are a few more too....but my point is this: victory bands that have been confirmed (hawthorne heights and aiden) should have their own separate stage

they probably have the gayest live show i've ever seen, but its better than 99% of the bands i've seen in the past year and i've seen a lot of bands in that time. nothing beats having a friend explain how he made out with the singer of he is legend while they were on tour 3 times in the same conversation

so, i'm listening to A&A for the first time... uh...how is this supposed to be so different from the blink self titled album. shit would have fit in nicely there...but i guess, he wasnt done with the song yet. probably has some awesome program on his imac that increases songs awesomeness tenfold and makes them amazing - jones the bones - stevejones8770@yahoo.com
