Wario Ware rules Billy. We're back from California, ready to jam and play risk.
I'm a music pirate. so kill me. A lot of bands don't mind you downloading music online. They want there music to be heard, like everyone who writes a song. For example, thursday encourages it.
A good album thats coming out pretty soon is Austen Heller - Old Haunts.
hahaha EGO.

We Are Scientist are good. Chris is from Ogden. The Raconteurs album is good too. Can't go wrong with Jack White and Brendan Benson. BRMC -- Howl is an amazing album. The Howl Sessions is even better.
I recommend, The Morning After Girls -- s/t The Walkmen -- A Hundred Miles Off Art Brut -- Bang Bang Rock N Roll.

honestly, if I wasn't a broke teenager, I wouldn't.
I find it incrediably hard to believe that none of you have burnt cd's in your cd cases. I also find it hard to believe that none of those burnt cd's are from friends who downloaded them.
Also, I had nothing to do with Graywhale being moved. Like I said, I have absolutely zero money, and when I do have some I have to spend it on drum heads or sticks. When I get a job after the summer I'm sure I'll start buying cd's. Don't jump my ass for being poor and liking music. Or would you rather me get burnt cd's from other people (just as illegal)?
Atleast in Canada, the artists support the fans.

i would like to recommend a PRE-ORDER: Due out in October: These Arms Are Snakes - Easter "THESE ARMS ARE SNAKES second full length for Jade Tree finds the Seattle foursome towing a proverbial line between paradox, hostility and a caustic blend of post-hard/math core. Retaining the definitive tension and angular force of earlier THESE ARMS ARE SNAKES efforts, Easter is the year-long culmination of a more structured yet experimental song writing process for the band. Recorded at Red Room Recording in Seattle by TAAS drummer Chris Common, Easter explores the relationship between suspect animism, impending otherwordly doom and the ethereal battle between virtue and ruin. More than anything from THESE ARMS ARE SNAKES’ back catalog, Easter was meant to hurt you." You can hear new MP3's at www.myspace.com/thesearmsaresnakes

regardless of what that says, i still don't agree with downloading music.
just view it as any other art form you created. i'm sure you wouldn't want to get ripped off by some poor/rich suburban kid that had no input in your creation. sure they're fans, but are they REAL fans. i'm sure we all have a definition of what a real fan is but mine is one who doesn't download. if he does upload it onto his computer and in fact likes it buys it later on.
Dan, i suggest you don't encourage the behavior of these downloading individuals. Too me it just seems that they are high class individuals not willing to work for what they want.
i think we all have been in the boat of being poor and liking music. but, those who truly love music, learned to sacrifice for it. like i did many times growing up

Sacrifice what billy? I can't get a job until september, it's the law.
You definition of a real fan is your choice. But I don't have to agree.
I realize that regardless of my definition of a "fan," downloading music is still illegal. Like I said, as soon as I have a job, I will start buying cd's. I like to have the cases, and the booklets.
Also, I buy real cd's from touring bands. Thats supporting the bands, not big business.

who said i was supporting the downloading of music i never said that i just said that clint had some good points come on fights on loganscene are pointless what do you get out of them does it make you feel all special inside come on everyone has their opinion and their right to voice that opinion come on people i dont like getting into fights, but it always seems that im pushed into them for voiceing my opinion if we could all realize that everyone has an opinion, an all be more openminded we could all stop this pointless fighting
mabe i should keep my pointless opinions to myself and be like the rest of the world who wont stand up and say what they feel

iTunes is fine with me. just downloading illegally.
Clint, i didn't have a job at one time either and i somehow found ways to get money which lead to buying CDs (have you ever heard of mowing lawns, selling lemonade..ha, or doing some work for a good friend of yours?). you can rip on big business all you want. but, thats what some of your favorite "Indie" bands labels are turning out to be now. the line between independent and mainstream has mixed in some areas. and if you disagree with me thats fine. but, i calls 'em how i sees 'em.
i'm glad to hear you pay for touring bands cds and i admit thats a good gesture.
i just don't see why, as a musician, you'd view this as the proper thing to do. if you have a problem with that i understand completely. because we really don't agree on much.
