what's "emo"? if you think it's my name, its not. have you ever heard the
stripes song "dead leaves and the dirty ground"? has this great rock riff
that i love. well, I guess we have our opinions but I think these bands,
and possibly others (if any) are bringing this rock thing back and I think
that's great. and as for the "one per tour makes it a magic, wonderful
night", that's exactly the kind of point i was trying to make and i'm sorry i
called those people "spoiled" and such. I just don't think its fair, thats
all. no hard feelings hey guys?
