Bxbomber (May 20, 2008)

no, just no.

Someone (May 20, 2008)

This is worse than getting hit in the face with a bag of dicks.

MattRamone (May 20, 2008)

Or a sack of assholes.

Someone (May 20, 2008)

I'm NOT colorblind Matt.

MattRamone (May 20, 2008)

The audience for these shows will be whiter than wonder bread.

Someone (May 20, 2008)

and with tighter pants than batgirl

red_eye_inc (May 20, 2008)

I'm delighted that this tour isn't coming to Chicago

Someone (May 20, 2008)

No shit, for once california can go fuck itself.

niveK82 (May 20, 2008)

I'm not sure why, but I checked this just to make sure it wasnt coming here.

Dante3000 (rich) (May 20, 2008)

Imortal records: "worse than cancer tour: 2008".
-Dante

MattRamone (May 20, 2008)

Or, to put it another way, cancer > this tour.

Someone (May 20, 2008)

Coming in 2009, their east coast tour "watch your mom get raped on you tube"

Thoughts on Punk Rock love songs?

I'm in a couple of bands, and lately I just can't seem to write anything lyrically except love songs.

Someone (May 20, 2008)

100% for them. If I don't want to hear you talking about how much something sucks then you might as well love something.

Just ask the entire Lookout! Records roster of the 1990's.

MattRamone (May 20, 2008)

Dude, then write love songs and don't give a crap what the punx think. I'd much rather hear some sincere love songs than forced political/social/bro hymn chorus songs (and vice versa).

Of the many reasons I'm not in a band is because I can only write goofy joke shit about psychic monkeys and rubber suit monster movies. All my stuff about relationships is AWFUL. Like, new Weezer album awful. Stick to what you're good at.

Someone (May 20, 2008)

Dude, that shtick ain't bad either... it worked for Boris the Sprinkler for several records. Nerf Herder isn't doing too bad either.

I like goofy songs too, if everybody sounded like Jawbreaker I would... never mind everybody should sound like Jawbreaker.

MattRamone (May 20, 2008)

I had a grand vision, too. Ramones style songs played in minor keys so it would sound like Dead Kennedys.

I was working on a riff one time and a roommate asked me what Cramps song I was playing. This was not long before I decided to maybe not do it anymore.

baldsteve (May 20, 2008)

Afraid you'd have to polish your patent leather heels?

MattRamone (May 20, 2008)

Or just act like some tweaker asshole. (Like the Cramps for the record. Old school greaser punks just tend to be really annoying).

baldsteve (May 20, 2008)

I like 'bad music...'

MattRamone (May 20, 2008)

Songs the Lord Taught Us was pretty righteous, too. I just don't like being surrounded by 50 year old women in fishnets who smell like balogna and SoCo.

Thus_Spoke_Sean (May 20, 2008)

Oh, believe I will totally continue to do it. I have to write, and this has just been whats coming out.

it's just that i dont really listen to a lot of....punk rock love songs. I was just curious what peoples general thoughts are.

thanks for both your inputs though!

MattRamone (May 20, 2008)

^^ you know I can't click it when there's no subject line, right?

Someone (May 20, 2008)

yes.

MattRamone (May 20, 2008)

ass

Someone (May 20, 2008)

thanks.

incogneato (May 20, 2008)

Where does foxy fit in and why are they on such a bad tour? :(

ramblinboysof (May 20, 2008)

dunno, but good for them. those dudes deserve every ounce of fame that they get.

Munker (May 20, 2008)

I think they'd fit in fine with Finch, just take the other 2 off the line-up, Scary Kids "We stole our name from a Cap'n Jazz song because we are cool" Scaring Kids and Tickle My Balls

baldsteve (May 20, 2008)

I can't hear 'Foxy' without thinking of Billy Batson in drag.

weffjebster (May 20, 2008)

Agreed... Wtf, this tour is terrible except for Foxy.

JamesWOAH (May 20, 2008)

Horrible line up
Horrible places

domotime (May 20, 2008)

foxy shazam needs to learn their ways first, and then you'll start seeing Foxy Shazam tours that make sense..

FOXY SHAZAM IS AWESOMELY AMAZINGGGGLY live

incogneato (May 20, 2008)

I love their dancing and little skits. So adorable.

CBSrocksteady (May 20, 2008)

disturbed isnt stoked

Holy_Balls (May 20, 2008)

Foxy Shazam is so badass live.

damnitsderek (May 20, 2008)

Pomona, CA is not stoked.

vaginalinferno (May 20, 2008)

alotta badmouthing here but i gotta say i'd be happy to see finch and foxy. finch is way underrated by you douchebags. say hell o to sunshine has some sick songs and very impressive parts. the drums got much better. and everything else too- not to mention nate's voice is fuckin nuts. beats me how he can scream and sing so strong and not lose his shit. foxy's pretty cool also

ASVLN12 (May 20, 2008)

Foxy Shazam will take over the world of music soon. you will all see.

VictorIkpeba24 (May 21, 2008)

Bands with the worst names ever tour.
