You know, its too bad everyone likes them now, cause theyll probably just sell out like a lot of my favorite bands.
I remember a little over a year ago, when they were an opening band for POD, the tickets cost 15 bucks, and I got to mosh my brains out 2 feet from them. I chatted with all of them for a while. They just came out and chilled with all the people waiting on line. Pretty cool guys, although the lead singer came off as kind of a prick.
Now tickets cost $40 for facking bleacher seats at an arena. Not that I dont think they deserve their success, but I absolutely REFUSE to go to a rock concert with seats of any kind.
Back then everyone gave them credit for being one of the best new bands. They were #1 on the rock stations here for pretty much forever. But as soon as they gain success, theyre a pop band? Its the same album that everyone praised before! Talk about sheep.
I dont know why everyone likes them. It seems like they broke out into the masses with crawling, and I couldnt stand that song.
Well, heres hoping the next album isnt going to be totally fvcked up like a lot of other bands that got wack as soon as they became popular. Not that I refuse to listen to a commercial band, but once they start writing songs about money, bitches and britney spears, I'm selling my signed cd.
