stupid bamboozle left

I-type-poorly (January 6, 2008)

quantity does not equal quality. Those first bands are pretty good though. New Found Glory is still around? wow. woah, Finch and The Starting Line are too?

New Found Glory is releasing a 7" sometime this year on Bridge 9. I don't no if this is Bridge 9's attempt to play ball with majors, or New Found Glory's attempt at re-entering the underground.

"quantity does not equal quality"

your forgetting about The Fest, besides that though yeah that statement is usually true with these festivals

DontTaserMeBro (January 6, 2008)

i feel like bamboozle will probably become a tour that will eventually replace or compete with warped.

My age / bias clearly shows in this article, as it could have easily been written "Paramore, Finch, the Starting Line, Chiodos at Bamboozle Left" and worded as such.

Anti- Flag, reel Big fish, Bouncing souls, streelight manfesto, NFG, RX Bandits concert? how in the world is that bad. and thats without headliners.

i would see either of those 6 bands by themselves let alone at a festival.

If you're getting hard over this shitty music, you really can't complain; the northeast has festivals like this all the time. Like, maybe, the original Bamboozle?

MisFit4Me (January 6, 2008)

But there's also the following bands:

A Day To Remember, Bayside, Chiodos, Danger Radio, Daphne Loves Derby, Finch, Metro Station, Paramore, Pierce The Veil, Set Your Goals, the Color Fred, the Starting Line and 3OH!3

Those suck. So you get a few good bands and a lot of shit bands. Sounds like last year's warped tour.

facetofacereunion08 (January 6, 2008)

umm... set your goals is damn good.

domotime (January 6, 2008)

ya but who cares about the other bands......... i went to NJ bamboozle and saw only the bands i wanted to, and it filled my entire day (with mediocre/crappy bands).

now they're giving you some actual good bands
- plus i love reel big fish and bouncing souls

and this is only a snippit of the entire list of bands. you know there will be at least 3 more bands you actually wanna see. i was considering flying out to Cali for this.

ChokingVictim (January 6, 2008)

the first set of bands is decent, for the most part, but the second sucks pretty bad.

thatsyouth (January 6, 2008)

saves the day is pretty these days

I'm trying to decide whether this comment warrants an "o rly?!?!?!?" or an "lol wut?".

thatsyouth (January 6, 2008)

oh fuck. i meant to put saves the day is pretty bad these days.

Jesus_H_Christ (January 6, 2008)

i join in agreement that the first batch is pretty good.

KyleSv (January 6, 2008)

Wow, I had no idea Danger Radio was big enough to make it onto this big of a fest. I guess they just weren't satisfied with being the worst fucking local band in Washington and decided to expand their audience of douchebags.

red_eye_inc (January 6, 2008)

holy living fuck I just listened to those guys and they're terrible

KyleSv (January 6, 2008)

one of the single worst live shows I've ever seen, I swear to god.

Zootiniski (January 6, 2008)

Why is streetlight playing the west coast one when they're from Jersey? I'm pretty dissapointed in this.

Holy_Balls (January 6, 2008)

I would go for Saves the Day

WorryRock (January 6, 2008)

Headline should read "Every band I listened to in Junior High to play at Bamboozle Left"

zick (January 6, 2008)

I think this is gonna take over for warped in the upcoming years. Its for all the "trl punkers*" out there.

* i use that term loosely

Holy_Balls (January 7, 2008)

I hate the word punker. Ever since a girl used it to describe Pink in 8th grade. Yes, the singer Pink. She said "I saw Pink last night and there were a bunch of lesbians there. I guess shes a punker or something now"

thevee (January 7, 2008)

streetlight is always worth the ticket, I'm going

zick (January 7, 2008)

yeah i hate the term too i think its insane term.. but mainstream trl kids will eat this shit up
