I will definitely be seeing the Ataris again.

The Sharp Hint Of New Tears is my favorite Dashboard song.

Give Alkaline Trio a listen to, they're worth the money for a cd. Trust me.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

Nothing by Alkaline Trio has been played on the radio. It probably won't for a while. There is a slight chance their new stuff can get radio play, but probably not. They sing about some fucked up shit.

cutting off fingers

and cutting out eyes

and nudity
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.

They sing about not radio-friendly things, they swear too much, and they're not some one you can see on MTV selling their souls, ya know?

Well, Vagrant is indie, I guess. They are pretty damn huge though....

Back to the topic, I really like "The Good Fight"... "Hands Down" is cool too.

I was refering to the one I went to back in November

The May one isn't sold out yet, but I'm pretty sure it will because of their new found popularity.
