my favorite band:
lolz
12 inches per foot two pints per quart why don't
we make it easy? The English system of measurement
must relate to history. We can use units of 10 and
convert with ease like all the other countries. I
am in command yes I am taking a stand from this
disease we must be free. good god! You're drunk
with your tradition that has no validity well I'm
intoxicated with sports in metrics come drink a
deciliter with me we want metrics we want it now
we know we can win I weigh 170 pounds that's 90
kilograms see metrics can even make you thin all
cool things are in metrics for example here's just
one I've got my 9 well that's 9 millimeters,
sounds cooler than my point two seventy inches
gun. The president will not exist and they will
call me communist and call me scum but its worth
it Canadians will think we are smart or at least
they will think we are not as dumb. your tradition
that has no validity well I'm intoxicated with
sports in metrics come drink a deciliter with me
we want metrics we want it now we know we can win
I weigh 170 pounds that's 90 kilograms see metrics
can even make you thin the revolution is here we
must overcome at last as we symbolically stick
their ******* foot up their ******* *** guitar!

Wait, Rise Against was headlining and Bad Religion was not? I am off to see BR on the 29th in Myrtle Beach and might possibly go see them again on Halloween in ATL. They are by far my favorite punk band. Brain and I will literary have conversations only using their song lyrics.
BR is popular here but Rise Against is REALLY popular in western Canada, for some reason. It seems like they play here every six months for the last few years.
You'll love the BR show. It's their 20th Anniversary tour, by the way. Get a T-shirt.

Yeah ... BR was below City and Color (watch as 5,000 people go get a pizza), then Wheezer, then Rise Against headlined.

I've seen BR 3 or 4 times. I remember how I got into them. It was somewhere between 1993-1995, I was like 10, and I was at the county library. They had VHS tapes and CDs so I was browsing CDs and came across BR's "Recipe for Hate". I thought it looked interesting, borrowed it and fell in love with it when I got home and put it in my walkman cd player lol my sister is 8 years older than me and got me into pennywise, offspring, green day, descendents, sunny day real estate etc.
I miss the early-mid 90s. So much.

I saw BR in 04' and was a little unimpressed. They're old now. They dont move around on stage much as if they're going to break a hip.
NoFX was badass. Antiflag has the craziest pit i've ever been in. Watched a kid make a new elbow in the middle of his forearm at my last anti-flag show. The vandals have been badass every time i've seen them.

I'm old now ;-)
When I saw the Circle Jerks a few years ago ... they were about 4 bands down from the headliner, Pennywise ... they didn't move around much either (not like the video above, and not like they were in LA five years before that video).
I've got a buddy who lives in another city north of here ... he's got probably 5,000 punk 45's and EP's ... I feel pretty good when he plays a few and I know every tenth band.
One of the things that is a little sad about the digital age is so much music is gone forever ... 90% of what was out before the first CD arrived in '84 isn't on digital anything, and even with bands that are represented on CD, they pick what the record company considers "hits" and leave the rest in the vault, rotting.
Just off the top of my head, and this is not "punk" but whatever .. we get J. Geils Band's "Centerfold" on CD but not anything from the album "Full House" (which is one of the best party records ever recorded anywhere ... period).
If anyone's not familiar with that album, it's pretty much the same as giving us The Who's "Squeezebox" as a "history" of that band, while burying "Live at Leeds".
