I'll second that.  But my threshold is thru after that.

i agree that a good majority of there fans are teens but i have liked them since way before they ever "made it big" and being 21 myself will say that i just don't think its right that as soon as i posted this topic i was automaticly shut out because i liked FOB no one asked me what other bands i like or the music i listen to...just because you don't like them doesn't mean that everyone that does is mindless teenybopper...

Personally I think FOB are shit, but don't confuse eclectic or non-mainstream music tastes with being open minded.  C'mon folks, I figured that one out when I was 17 or 18.

 speaking of which - julian, isn't it time that we resurrect that thread?  shows are this weekend.

I think Distance and myself are the only ones going, so there's really no need. Wait, were you and the GF heading down one of the nights? [/b]

i thought we took it upon ourselves to make that "rumor: SP @ 9:30?" thread the one that never dies....
 
 anyhoo, i'm there on sunday night.  the GF had to bail - so i have a spare ticket for sale at face price if anybody is interested.  center orchestra row PP.  PM me.  
 
 i'll be at the bar on the north side-street before the show, having a burger and beer (although open to other meet-up locations, should you guys want to meet up).

PM me a phone number, I'll meet up. I'm staying at some hostel that's a pile on Bank and Market Street and am willing to go eat somewhere before or something.

Amen.  I don't consider myself a mindless teenybopper and I love Fall Out Boy.  My Chemical Romance, too.
 
 There's no accounting for bad taste or hipster snobs, Calyn.  Just ignore them.  They'll go away soon enough.  Don't let them bring you down.  They're too busy masturbating over the new Radiohead album.

Is it really 'hipster' to like Radiohead?  I actually think it sounds hipster to be over 25 and into FOB or MCR - its like the musical equivalent of wearing an ironic t-shirt.

[azaghal1981]

Hahaha...Completely agree.

I haven't -heard- of probably 70-80% of the music on this board, I go, download it, don't like it, delete it, and go back to listening to stuff I do listen to.
 
 With that said, there are bands that are in the same Genre as FOB, that were doing it years before them (and have since broken up), and never got the acclaim. That's the stuff people that like FOB should be listening to, not the fed MTV pap they pass off as music.
 
 I'm also fairly sure that I'm fair in saying I have some intensely eclectic tastes, like most of you.
 
 Despite mine.. you know, differing wildly, I still enjoy the banter of the board. And I've picked up a couple bands I have since downloaded some more stuff from, and even bought a CD. Just think of it as expanding your mind without the illegality of drugs. Yum. (or with, depending on your preference.)

so did we ever find out about the FOB secret show?  let me know, I want to go.

[nkotb]

You know, if there was a secret show, and it was free, I'd totally go.  Why not?

I'd go, wearing my American Idol® anthropology professor sportcoat, the one with the elbow patches.
