Do you know a really big, tough looking dude that comes to all the Baltimore pop punk shows? He's backstage at most of them (saw him behind the stage at Warped for PBC, on stage for SYG, Man Overboard, and I saw him walking around when you guys came to town on the GK Tour.)

Just curious. My friend was at the Parkway Drive/SYG show awhile back and that dude picked him up and physically threw him. Doesn't seem like a nice dude. Is he a tour guy or booking guy or something?

Wow, he must know a lot of people then.

haha, I felt really weird asking about it. Excluding a handful of concerts, I think I've seen him at everyone.

[Mikey Paine]

uhh....anyone going to any shows soon?

I've got the IIOI/MDAM/Hostage Calm show and hopefully the NFG 10th anniversary tour. Small chance I might be able to go see Andrew Jackson Jihad, but I doubt it.

I know those feels, I made this account when I was 14...then I decided it would be a good name for other places, quite a mistake.

If that dude needs a GK Tour split, tell him to hit me up.

Couldn't make it through that essay. Sorta impressed he/she got the MLA formatting correct, haha.

Oh, yeah totally. *sarcasm*

I don't think that essay is real, just because they are screenshots of an essay...if they were on a real piece of paper, I would think differently. Maybe it's not that I don't think the essay is, I just hope it's not.

How have I not listened to The Weakerthans yet? This stuff is really good.

Really liking them, I do think that TWY cover of Aside is good as well.

I'd imagine this was a joke, but in all fairness, isn't that really fucking cool? Dude is going to Japan playing in a band. I know most everyone reading this isn't a Handguns fan (I remember seeing a guitarist, or bassist or someone say something rude to someone on here), but shit, he's seeing places at 18 that I'll probably never see in my whole life.

I can certainly see how it can be interpreted as condescending or not, but do you guys actually follow him on (Vito) twitter? I don't get any sort of condescending vibe. I understand about Brandon (I don't even follow him) but hey, I'd rather be a condescending 18 year old (when it's sort of okay) then being 24 condescendingly blogging about vaporwave.
