Old 97's roll call

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

You're welcome.
 
 Really? Recher on a Saturday and 9:30 on a Sunday is the best possible situation for me, a Virginia dweller.

I hope the new dates are accurate -- I got a wedding on the 25th!

would make sense to play Towson first, as they are headed southward on that leg of tour. Though it's not that much of a difference when you're talking length of the east coast.

oops...was under the impression that it was friday and saturday!  nevermind my complaints--seems like the pollstar version of the dates would be perfectly convenient.

The New West website is in agreement with pollstar.

Did anyone else catch Fox's use of Old 97's songs during the All-Star game last night as they cut to commercials? Heard "W. TX Teardrops" and "Streets of Where I'm From", both off of Too Far To Care. They may have used more songs, I but we went to bed early.

yes I caught it, and was fairly sure you would catch it as well, I only watched the first inning so i could see the 3 cardinals hit, but i think i heard the song while checking the score later

I read that they also played "Barrier Reef" as well. Must have been after I snoozed.

They've been playing this one on WOXY.  Sounds like the Strokes.

I like Ken's surf guitar-esque solo on that one.
 
 Ironic that one of the tunes Murry sings would get the airplay.

I have to admit, these two posts on the Old 97's website guestbook are pretty funny
 
 "hello. i saw the 0ld 97's at summerfest. and i have to say that they are by far the worst band i have ever seen in my life. their songs are not only morally and immorrally retarded, but they are pointless. i find no point or value in any of the songs. the way they acted on stage was so stupid that it was entertaining, but i have to say that i couldnt have been more glad for them to get offstage and for switchfoot to get on stage. this music was the worst music i have ever heard in my life and i pray to the dear Lord above that i never have to hear it again. if i do i bet i will cry because i was onthe verge of tears when i saw you anyways. thank you" (allison)
 
 
 i agree with allison, the leader singer looks like Hansons dad with the moves of elvis, Murray looks likes an aged 40 yr old harry potter with way too tight pants, the base player is one chromosome from having down syndrom, and the drummer looks like a rapist. not that looks matter, but your songs suck my asshole, and i pity your children. you are old men. grow up.

I had the same exact thought when I read that. I guess great minds think alike. (Flawd and Allison, that is.)

What's laughable is that you will probably say this and mean it in a few years.
