ok well the if I were gay song has pretty much been played at every Battle of the bands.  we are in no way homophobes trust me you are talking to one of the leaders of the gay straight alliance at my school.  when I talked to one of my gay friends after the show he said I made his day by singing that song.  I guess it was something that only the students at NCS and STA would get.

and the whole tsunami thing was an afterthought for everyone involved.  we first found out that the Walkmen we're coming to play and than we decided to give the money to tsunami relief, because every show done at STA is a charity show.  the whole Wave of relief thing just snow balled and was hyped up by Ham's mom and other administrators at the school, who in all honesty mostly have sticks up there asses. but thats an entirely different subject.

hey, just thought I'd give my word on this.  BEtty, we're not trying to post you up as a bitch or anything, and despite how it was a high school show that message might not have been conveyed clearly enough.  I am the guy who did ALL the lights, sound and set for that show, and trust me, I know that there was a shit load of stuff wrong with the sound and other things.  I'm not a guy to make excuses but I'd like you to know we tried our very best depsite consequences i.e. Ham's Mom, and our having finals 3 days after the concert.  We raised about $15,000 is the unofficial count.
 
 And by the way I am not at all offended by what you said because I work in the entertainment business and our job is to entertain and if the show sucks then there is something wrong with what I am doing, so I am glad that you let us know.  But in the futue I suggest you possible lay it on easier and be careful because there are a lot of people like me who come on these forms and are actually working many of the concerts in the DC area.

i go to whitman.  
 not exactly sure what was implyed with that u2 remark, please clarify...?
 
 and if you were saying what i think you were saying; i already have tickets.  wouldn't miss it for the world  :)
 
 
 i also just realized that my thick, thick, unfortunate sarcasm probably makes everything i say on a message board sound like i am laying it on worse than i am.  sarcastic people + internet consisting of people that are unaware of said sarcasm=not a good combination
