I was friends with a band from Massachusetts and they used to play any show they could. They were a blast, and now…they sell 2 million records and they traded all the fun and excitement of old, for money, pretty much.<P>its an extreme situation, but GC worked hard to get where they were, even if its not what they imagined.<P> that said, i have never liked one song they sung, <BR>

hey, just giving you a taste of your own medicine there buddy, you know, kidding around like. <P>Saucony are queer track shoes or something.<P>anyway. fluffer isnt a term i am aware of, but i am SURE its bad. positive.<P>

I miss the days when Less Than Jake played small clubs (9:30). They are one of the best bands to see live. It saddens me that they are opening for NFG & GC…what's wrong with that picture?! At least I might see them at warped tour this summer.

If you're going to choose to be rock starrs, especially ones that wear foolish clothes and eyeliner, you're going to open yourself up to mocking. That comes with the territory of choosing to be a rock star. If you don't want public scrutiny, choose a more private career.<P> I'm not saying that mocking is a good thing, but it comes with the territory.<p>[This message has been edited by Rhett Miller (edited 02-27-2003).]

I never called them fucksticks. i said they were being fucksticks. its completely different. Everyone acts like, you know, an ass, sometimes.

Perhaps next time the threat should be to send around to Rhetts loft apt for some re-decorating
