So, Vic Fuentes and I have this little list of things to say to a band without actually telling them they’re god awful. For instance, say a band convinces us to come out to a show and check them out. At the end of their set, you realize they are complete horse shit – but you don’t want to be that cruel asshole that says, “have you guys ever considered selling your equipment?” So here’s a small list of quotes he and I have come up with and/or actually used in the past. (*Note: apologies ahead of time to any band(s) that have heard us say this to them. It’s life)

1. “Man, you guys are really doing it!”
2. “Looks like you guys are really having fun up there!”
3. “You’re up there and getting your name out!”
4. “Wow! It’s all happening right now!”

(*Also note, ALL quotes end in exclamation marks to come off as excited as possible)

There will be more added over time. And if you have any good ones, leave them in the comments.

A friend of mine showed me this site today. I’m still battling with keeping my dinner down after checking out this site. Which meal would slaughter you the most? Mine would be these two:

The Hamdog

A hot dog wrapped in a beef patty that’s deep fried, covered with chili, cheese, onions, served on a hoagie bun topped with two fistfuls of fries and a fried egg.

Bacon Shell Tacos

who called bullshit on me… HA!

Stoked on seeing Radiohead perform at the Grammy’s with the USC marching band. Ooo la la!

The new record from New Found Glory is pretty awesome, by the way. I miss this band.

I’m also stoked on seeing Rob Dyrdek’s new TV show.

Zach Galifianakis is the best comedian right now. (check video below)

Also, your band sucks – so go check out a good band called Misdelphia and buy their record for $5.99.

Aaaand.. The Grammy’s wont be THAT exciting. Promise.

Everyone relax and go read a book or something..

Isles & Glaciers. Watch the fuck out..

Just glanced over the new Alternative Press and some band called “Latin For Truth” has a new record coming out entitled ‘eleven eleven’.

Wow. Fuckers.

Touring around for years, there’s always a few embarrassing stories to tell about dumb shit that happens onstage. I’ve seen Yabbs fall off a stage — twice! I’ve seen Brandon completely gut his bass and I’ve also seen him dive into his Ampeg 8×10. I, personally, have NEVER done anything embarrassing

In any event, this video cracks me up!

Tip #1: Don’t ever wear a ‘Back To The Future’ vest in a video.

Tip #2: Don’t rock those little combo amps in a video. You might as well not even be holding instruments.

Tip #3: Don’t fail at life.

So you thought you had some old demo’s. This little ditty dates back to the year 2000 (we believe). This was years before “Task of the Modern Educator” came out. “Wrong of Way” documents the first time we ever stepped foot into a studio actually. This is embarrassing but it was nostalgic for me to listen to yesterday for the first time in MANY years. You won’t be hearing any breakdowns in this bad boy. This song was blessed with punk rock goodness. Thanks to my buddy Corey for sending this my way. Maybe I’ll be posting up the split EP we did the following year – THOSE songs are definitely hard to listen to now. Haha.

P.S. – Don’t ever ask us to play this live.. unless, I’m 3 sheets to the wind.
