fiddler? hahahahaha. this band is awful, i don't know alot about htem, but it's your typical pop punk band who have been trying to sign to a major label for like 2 years now. and jason tate thinks they are the best underground band ever.

jason tate also thinks that way about slick shoes so his opinion is tasteless and useless

Someone (December 23, 2003)

come on now, don't insult slick shoes by putting name taken on the same level as them

my thought exactly... I don't know either. By the sound of it, I probably shouldn't care though.

fuck you, name taken and slick shoes are bands more talented than anything you could be listening to, such as avril lavigne.

I heard they purchased the label a few months back...or do they just market/distribute cd's...which bascially means they are on a major?!?

i think they may just help with distribution. i know that whatever label handles that part (i cant remember the name off the top of my head) is printed on all fiddler cds

Universal just does the distribution for Fiddler

musical-monkey (December 23, 2003)

for some reason i thought it was either universal or geffen. oh well.

Instead of a sandwich, if a band you don't care about gets signed, I think everyone should get a taco.

Fuck you. The sandwich joke was a little comment from Adam. Clever at that. I am sure he regrets making it by now, as you kids have buried it to the ground.

haha when i first read this, i thought it was about a band named fiddler inks, and it was a clever headline breaking the bad news that "fiddler inks" was taken as a band name. that made me laugh. im gonna pretend this is still about that

As Long as The Higher are on Fiddler I will continue to have absolutely no respect for this label. Name Taken is not helping things either.

The higher should have never been signed!! They are horrible! Name Taken is good, but just need to learn to play something else. But I agree, as long as The Higher are on this label, i have no respect.

Someone (December 25, 2003)

Is this label a joke?

Report

Someone (December 26, 2003)

i don't know if the label is a joke, but name taken is. and for the one friend, who happens to be the son of someone in the band 'great white' yes the pyro band, my friends and i hate you, and your dad's band.
