  guys, let me say something.  say anything's debut record is a rarity.  you really have to give it a chance and sit down with it and realize the complete tongue-in-cheek notion that max is giving off.  the guy writes ingenius lyrics.  say anything is one of my favorite bands right now - once you figure them out, they're awesome.

So if you show up, say hi, I should be there I think I will wear my slug shirt...

They sound like The Kinks on acid having spilled chocolate in the Pixies' peanut butter. Simply Saucer coming out of the closet years later after studying yoga. Elliot Smith on uppers, Beck before scientology. Townes Van Zandt playing some Burt Bacharach songs with Camper Van Beethoven. Pavement's Wowee Zowee, Belle & Sebastian, Destroyer, Nick Drake on a Sunday morning.

  You know, you don't think it can be that bad.  UGH.  Don't besmirch the name of "Little Black Backpack" by associating the two.  (I admit to loving that song when it came out, but it aged FAST and not well).  

dont wanna talk about it. [/b]

why not?

Don't wanna talk about it

 Don't wanna think about it

 For your little black backpack

Not too bad a band.  Was actually a pretty good show.  It sold out before the show and the 3 bands played well.  The first two were more aggressive punk (The Bled and The Sleeping) and developed a good little mosh pit action.  Say Anything are pretty tight, their drummer is great, their singer needs to work on belting it out better but the audience was singing so loud that it really didn't matter.  That and I got home by 11pm.
