So this must be another example of the band selling out and doing it all for the money, right?

(In reference to kids who made a big deal out of them doing a $500 pre-order.)

In all seriousness,...

Yeah, we're sort of at the sweet spot now where releases start happening. For anyone still looking for Boston, I'd definitely keep an eye out this week. I'm guessing some GAs will pop up at some...

Oh, no, not at all. Sorry if it sounded that way. I just meant that there weren't tickets available - up until that release you happened to catch. When I read your post it sounded like you were...

Sounds good. After seeing these guys a couple dozen times and even booking a show with them once, it had been about almost 3 years since I'd made it to one of their shows. In January, I saw Alex and...

If you mean through Ticketmaster/Live Nation, there weren't. There was likely just a small release. Did you happen to get GA Floor or Mezzanine?

I have to reiterate a point made earlier, because I agree with it so wholeheartedly.

Used to really dig Envy on the Coast. Haven't been able to get into these guys, though. I'll give this record a shot, especially considering they're opening my FOB date.

Not a fan of this one, although the T-Pain part made me chuckle. I did love "Spring Break Anthem", though.

That was sort of what I was hearing my first few listens through, but it could easily change. Soupy's comment at the top of the page makes me wonder. This is one of my favorite parts about having a...

Setlist is a little disappointing, but, truthfully, it's essentially what I expected. It's strange to me that, with all the hype for this tour, and the intimacy of the show, that the arena tour is...

I agree. I enjoy Get Stoked On It the same way I enjoy a lot of other pop punk records - meaningless fun that I throw on every once in a while. There's nothing wrong with that at all.

Fantastic read. I made sure to get one listen in before I read the whole thing so I could have some basis to go by.


As usual, I'm late to the party because I never listen until I've got a physical...

I like Brand New, but I've never been a massive fan, so the idea of a cover doesn't necessarily bother me. I'm only an occasional listener of We Are The In Crowd at best, but, I think it's well done....

It never ceases to amaze me that The Lonely Island manages to create catchier hooks than the majority of mainstream/pop/rap hybrids every single time. This is fantastic.

I don't mind it, but it seems pretty generic. Neither track has grabbed me the way nearly every song on "This Is War" did.

I told myself "Dismantling Summer" would be the last one I listened to before the record, but dammit, I couldn't help it.
