pigern, yeah it does suck that being "emo" is the new trend. what's up w/ that?...but what can you do...just bc dashboard and saves the day and get up kids are featured in magazines and playing on mtv now doesn't mean i hate them. i still like them, i don't hate them, i just hate the kids attending their shows. all the posers and teenyboppers. look at what happened to phantom planet and maroon 5. before, there weren't that many teens in the audience, and now when you go to one of their shows (which i don't!), you feel old, because the next guy is 15 and 16. it's sad...it's weird bc jason schwartman even said in an article that he was good friends w/ ben kweller and that "you should go and buy ben's album so that you can say you bought his album before he got all big." hello!!! why oh why is he doing this? can't we all just have one band that stays good and true to their fans, and only like you and a couple of your friends know about them? just one?
