So what if they aren't (and will never be remotely close to) Rage Against The Machine? My kid wanted to see a concert for her bday. End of story. ~anyways~ Went - saw - had a good time. Saving Face = the suk Something Corporate = teh suk GC = Not bad - but in my many years of concert attendance - not good either. Mediocre sounds about right.

Your daughter? Well that explains a lot! No sexism or anything implied, but a lot of girls 12-16 around here really like Good Charlotte. Most not for the music.
the important question is did your kid have a good time? i personally dont think they should bother regulating it in the first place. people are going to have sex, whether they're allowed to or not. what people do in the bedroom is their own business, as long as it's consensual.
Im also not a fan of GC. I think they are too put together IMO. If you daughter had a good time then Its all good. And I totally agree with waiting to get pregnant. Im sorry but a girl who is 16-20 who has no job/ or a low paying (under $15 an hour) Should not be having kids. Or having sex..Wait till your married It costs alot of money to raise a kid. And there is no need to have one unless you are finicially secure. And if i knew my daughter/son was having sex when they lived in my house. Daughter/son would not see light of day. And the boy/girl it was with would get a call to their parents, and the boy just might have and accident, 8)I have a shotgun a shovel and 1 acre backyard don't triffle with me.
Thats total BS. In case you didnt know, its the village that raises the child not the parent. I suppose you also have no qualms if a 45yr old had sex with a 12 yr old (statutory rape) - of course not, age doesnt matter. pffhh! you've got to regulate sex for one reason and one reason alone - it results in children spawing children, correct me if I'm wrong but said children (parental children that is) cannot affor said children (child of child), therfore the village pays for their mistake, the village being the government or society or parents or whatever is available. Its a simple absolute - dont f*ck until you can afford to be screwed. The fact remains, no matter the arguement, a child cannot afford to harbour a child while they themselves are a child. Its not like its going to kill them to wait a few years. FYI: by your arguement if I were to kill someone via a murder-suicide pact, it would be perfectly fine -- it was concentual and it happened in my room . Just because people want to do things, doesnt mean they know whats best -- sometimes you must intervene, in my example the people involved would need coulciling and perhaps phyciatric care. A simple bout of depression may be all that troubles them - which in most cases would be solvable unlike their death. /thread hijack
No. It's still open as discussion about GC and their complete lack of talent and conviction. But if people step out of line again, they'll get told off. *n
Can't really stand when people are snobbish about music. Does it really matter if they were put together by a record company or copied some guys tatoo? I don't care about what a band looks like or where they came from. If they sound good, I'll keep listenin. I don't care if they're pop. What's wrong with pop as a genre anyway? Penski: You said the guy should get some taste. TBH, it's not really fair to say something like that. I mean, just 'cause you don't like them... At the end of the day, he didn't really ask for people's thoughts on them. Only if anyone wanted a t-shirt.
Hahaha, yeah. Why don't you just open up a "Why I'm jealous"...errr...I mean "Why I hate GC" thread penski? LOLOLOLOLOL
What's worse? Laughing at your own jokes or using the acronym 'lol'? I dislike them because they make terrible music primarily. Pop is a great genre, there is brilliant music to be found in all genres. There is also utter dross to be found in all genres. *n
GC, being the utter dross. Their music is horrible, posing crap, corporately assembled for monetary gain.
They aren't even a band fs. They're just like Hear'Say with tattoos. Tattoos they were told to go and get by their producers. What annoys me also, is the way that they are really cliquey with other manufacturered "rock" bands such as The Used. AND since when the hell did people playing pop-punk dress like thrash metallers?! TITAN > If your daughter really wanted to go, then fair enough. But I bet if you ask her why she really liked GC her response would be dry..."because they're cool!"
I would humbly consider myself to have quite a catholic taste in music, i like stuff from billy cobham to poison the well, and i'd say they make good noise. Saw good charlotte at leeds festival and they performed well, tight performance of catchy songs, cat really fault them for that.
Good Charlotte... Kerrang's very own busted! on the subject both are poor... good charlotte... i like one guy's hair... that is their ONLY forgiving quality... busted... too... poppy... and way to ch*****asing jumping all over... they're somewhat musically tallented BUT... they've probably got people doing all that stuff for them... And just my general benchmark for "Pop-rock" anything that makes you cringe... and should you find yourself at a gig with them on... you wish to find a daaaaark corner... or the bar.
Haven't seen Des Moines in a few years, and sorry - never been to Java Joes, though coffee sounds really good about now. Interesting seeing someone post about this boring state without using cuss words to describe their experience.
