That's what I've done with a lot of bands. I just ask someone "what's a good band?" and they'll tell me, and I'll download the albums. I will listen to anything. It only takes 20 minutes to download an album, so why not?

Re: Andrew McMahon
I'm okay right now. I like being kind of anonymous on here. I should probably take that out of my sig that I want a new sig, because I really don't. The only thing I want is a sig of Franzen holding up the Stanley Cup after this monday's game when the Wings' win the cup.Armorforblink! wrote:<3Kyle_ftl wrote:I've always thought you were kind of cute ;)Armorforblink! wrote:After this thread, I think I love you.Kyle_ftl wrote:That's actually what I did.

PM me and give me some details to go with.

Re: Andrew McMahon
You should listen to the ataris. The singer went through a divorce, over-dosed on PCP on a train and other stuff and made an album. Its a rather slow album but the band pwns

Are you trying to compare someone who went through chemo with someone who got divorced? That shouldn't even be brought up. Jack's and SoCo > Ataristomhoppus wrote:You should listen to the ataris.

Re: Andrew McMahon
Why are we comparing bands based on what people in them went through? I'm not going to listen to a band for sympathy. I don't really like the Ataris or JM...

BTW, Jordan, he over-dosed on PCP on a train in berlin, after he got divorced, and almost killed himself. He also has ADD I think

Re: Andrew McMahon
I have 2 or 3 of The Ataris' albums. The latest one is the only one that I actually purchased. I heard the single, Not Capable Of Love... I think that's the name... and was like whoa this album is going to be amazing. Then I bought the album... liked 3 songs if that... and decided that The Ataris weren't worth my time.
but I know I can't be comfortable in my own skin.
