| WHFS Holiday Nutcrackerlive in Washington, DC2002 live show Review by: viceroymonarch See others by this writer Godfather Of Soul .com (link) Only registered users can post comments Published on December 20th 2002
A radio festival show reviewed on a punk site? Given the mainstream-ification of punk music these days, this isn't as out of place as you might think. In fact, a decent amount of crowdmembers were donning punk band t-shirts, to say nothing of the scores of 11-13 year olds in Good Charlotte shirts. Please login or register to post comments.

Can't you feel the love tonight? Awww :) How cute. Everyone adores you. By coldplay do you mean lots o'food? Cuz ya sure look like food would be in your top 10. You have bigger tits than my sister. haha Scott you tease. Just post them already! I like Coldplay. Why on earth doesn't anyone like Coldplay? OK KIDS!!!! SHUT THE FUCK UP!!! Seriously though please stop bitching about who likes what bands and how cool/dumb they are for liking said bands. If you wanna attack someone, dont do it on these little post things, cuz its annoying to read through all your crap. Just learn to let things go, its ok, its not the end of the world. well said. :) oh, and you want my signature? ok. sorry to have to say this, but its mommy. by the way, i'm sorry for leaving you all those years back. just couldn't stand the site of your ugly face. viceroy-you still haven't explained to me why you're a faggot cocksucker poser who is too big for boxcar but loves new found glory. get off this fucking site you little asswipe poser. I love how this guy writes multiple messages to me, but doesn't sign them anywhere, like he's trying to make me think there are a few different people using the exact same vocabulary to call me the exact same things. As if he expects me to run away in tears because people from a comment board called me a poser. i'd like to set that kid with the 2 posts below me on fire... good comeback there viceroy. how long did it take you to come up with that? fucking poser. viceroy you little faggot cocksucker. stop acting some big shot punk elitist by saying you like new found glory but claim to be to good to see box car racer. they're both fake and looks like you're one as well bitch. don't come to this fucking website. there are enough posers as it is. I would've stayed for coldplay, but not boxcar...coldplay are actually good, but just the new album; to be precise. Let the flaming begin. - bigjerk Hey look at me! I'm punker than you! Hmm, I don't really see any connection at all between liking "trendy" music and having a rich stepfather, and anyway I don't have any sort of stepfather let alone a rich one. Sounds to me like you've got a typical case of projection going on. You're ashamed of the fact that you only like bands that are trendy in 'the scene,' as well as ashamed of the fact that you've never in your life done anything constructive and always lived off of YOUR rich stepfather. And rather than face those facts, you try to project them on to me by claiming that I only like bands trendy to another 'scene' and I have a rich stepfather. Perhaps you would be better served spending time at WebMD.com getting help for your psychological condition, instead of this fine website. hehe, viceroymonarch you fake asswipe. you really are a true punk rocker. not only do you like the distillers (haven't you heard? they're the newest craze), but you LIKE new found glory (a must listen for any punk fan) but HATE box car racer. go back to rich step-daddy's cock and gag you little poser. James was amazing at this show. I went to see him, then left immediatly after. The Pietasters did one hell of a job as his band....Oh yeah, and Queens of the Stoneage were amazing too. Sad Sad Sad. The godfather of soul surrounded by pop sissies. (shakes head in disgust) Blah blah blah blah nfg blah blah shitty blah blah boxcar racer blah blah worse blah blah than blah blah cancer. thats all I saw in your reply PS. I don't think Boxcar Racer is on MTV anyway, jerky. So you lose that point, as well. That's hilarious. Just priceless. You just scolded me for NOT being closed-minded. This must be a first, even on this site. First of all, you're a moron. Second of all, Boxcar sounds like what would happen if a pop-punk band decided to try to save the world, while NFG sounds like if a pop-punk band wanted to rock out. Third of all, to have an opinion that two bands sound very similar is one thing; To say that anyone who disagrees is a stupid is egotistical, elitist, and basically everything that's wrong with the 'scene.' So in conclusion, fuck off. The coolest thing about James Brown is the shit he gets arrested for. Fucking Priceless. twat You said that you gave nfg performance thumbs up. Then you went on to say, "but...well, it's Boxcar Racer and Coldplay, would you have stayed?" Is there a difference between boxcar racer and nfg? Nope. Both of them are magnets for dipshits that think the only music worth listening to is found on mtv. But you act like staying for boxcar racer and coldplay is wayyyyy beneath you. You say that AFTER you stayed for nfg's entire set. Take that airplane glue out of your nose and take a deep breath. There, feel better? Now do you realize that you are an asshole while you’re high? You piss off your family and friends and make outrageous statements that there's somehow a difference between two fucking horrible bands. That's like saying you like n'sync but you hate the backstreet boys. SAME FUCKING BAND. Twat. ummm. . . 12 years olds . . . . New Found Glory get 12 year old girls, not hot chicks. That getting chicks and making cash guy is definately at the wrong site. I'm pretty sure he was looking for www.limpbizkit.org. Fuck off jocko homo. that first line should have read like this: i think that only people who reallly appreciate coldplay seem to enjoy their music. Wait, that's not what music is all about? yeah, because making tons of money and gettin chicks is what music's all about. this is funny. you kids diss NFG, but yet, where is your band that is gettin chicks and making tons of cash? And for that matter, if I cared what people thought about me, I wouldn't post that I think Blink 182 is 10 times better than NOFX :) No actually I was somewhat interested in Coldplay. My friend was whining to leave once James Brown finished though, and I figured I'd rather get back to campus and find out where the parties are, than waste 75 minutes to see Coldplay. If I cared about what people thought of me, I wouldn't have ever admitted to liking NFG. To the reviewer, good review but...if someone is making fun of you or not agreeing with something you say in your review (I'mm talking about the box car and coldplay comment you said) you don't have to go "oh well that's not what I meant, I actually like them I just didn't want to sit thru 25 mins of more music." come on buddy, stand up for youself, we all know you don't like either one of those bands, you said it so yourself in the review. you don't have to please everyone, just look at me. thanks Zwan is Billy Corgan of Smashing Pumpkins fame's new band. Pretty crappy from what I've heard... What is Zwan? I would have stayed for coldplay...you twat I woud have gone but the tickets were like what $50 for shit seats and horrible sound. I heard the Distillers went on before the time on the ticket or something like that so a lot of people didn't see them. I went last year at the patriot center (smaller but still way too big) and I liked 2 bands Blink (yeah I know you hate them I don't give a shit) and Pete Yorn, he kicks ass. Tom Delonge's "Look at me, I'm the next Ian McKaye" delusion. i almost went to an hfs show once and i'm amazed that there were more than 2 non-shitty bands. fucking amazing. this is a surprisingly decent lineup for a nutcracker show, it's usually all shitty nu-metal bands. The Pietasters were amazing! The two song thing kinda blew, but there was no way in hell HFS would have let James Brown do a full set. They needed to make way for crap. James Brown is overrated, I can't beleive people think he's so good still. He has hardly done anything new in how many years? Sure he's good at what he does, or should I say what he did...which was make music. James Brown is so fucking overrated. He's been milking the same two damn songs for decades, only beefing up his resume with cameos in the Blues Brothers and token appearances like this. Fuck him. Heh, I just realized that the part I wrote about not staying for Boxcar and Coldplay came off as kinda jerky. No offense meant, fact I think Coldplay is kinda cool. I just wasn't prepared to sit for two 25-minute set changes and Tom Delonge's "Look at me, I'm the next Ian McKaye" delusion. Good review. I probably would have stayed for Coldplay too though... yes, yes i would have stayed for coldplay. in fact, that would have been the only reason i was there. idiot. This show was horrible, horrible. 2 SONGS FROM JAMES BROWN!!!I was so pissed, look for my review soon, although it sucks arese compared to this. The Pietasters, QOTSA and the GODFATHER OF SOUL all rock. The fact that the three of them collectively opened for New Found Glory and Box Car Racer disgusts me. New Found Glory? HAHA! James Brown must have laughed his ass off at those little posers milking it after him. Pietasters rock. nuff said. |
