Say it ain't so

OLP opening for Avril. I never thought in a million years they would do that. Thats like Fuel opening up for Britney Spears. This is some sad ass shit, good thing it's in Europe.

bunch a crybabies........snap out of it and wish them luch before they get Lavignized. Maybe Raine will wear his tie the same way and pretend to be a Skater Boi on tour. :wtf: OLP will just get some different exposure. But when people listen to their stuff they'll realize what kind of band they are. Besides, they can have some fun with Avril........hopefully she'll get water-ballooned and have her head shaved.

sorry but i think it will be good exposure. you people always are all so scared of OLP touring with these people but give me a break was Marc Copley any better! I would have given anything to see her instead of that idiot.

I dont care about them touring together, just the fact that she's headlining, not OLP. It honestly makes them appear to be lesser of a band than Avril. No use arguing I guess, it won't change a thing. Just gives them a bad image as far as I'm concerned.

Um in Europe Our Lady Peace IS the lesser band ...

If this was in Canada obviously OLP would be headlining .. this is Europe and in Europe Avril is much bigger than OLP .. people know Avril there, OLP is still under the category of :wtf: "who the fuck is that?" in Europe ..

Well us OLP'ers are a sensitive bunch. This new "mainstream world" is tearing our reality apart. Here's a couple of Simpsons lines that expalin my feelings on the subject.

Kent Brockman: When cat burglaries start, can mass murders be far behind? This reporter isn't saying that the burglar is an inhuman monster like the Wolfman, but he very well could be. So, professor: would you say it's time for everyone to panic?

Professor: Yes I would, Kent.

Kent Brockman: Hordes of panicky people seem to be evacuating the town for some unknown reason. Professor, without knowing precisely what the danger is, would you say it's time for our viewers to crack each other's heads open and feast on the goo inside?

Professor: Mmm, yes I would, Kent.

It's just commen sense really .. bigger band headlines .. Avril is bigger in Europe and will draw a larger crowd .. just like if OLP toured here with Avril she'd open for them.

weezer used to be good
we are the brand new beatniks. we are the down and outers.
we are the bleeding hearts, beating syncopated, broken rhythm.
our speed is often break neck. we need to slow it down.
tired of being sleepless. tired of being broken.

She opened for David Usher .. OLP is bigger and better than David Usher .. so of course Avril would open for OLP here in Canada .. in Canada OLP is the crowd pleaser .. in Europe, not so much .. that's all
