Yeah so I'm seeing Yellowcard tonight.

[Smitty]

I friend I know has free tickets, so I'm gonna go. Not my cup of tea but whatever; should be a good time.

[road doggy dogg]

They are pritty awesome. The man, you might say. Have fun.

[MoRcHeEbA]

yeah, they do a pretty good live show.

[el fregadero]

Look out for their crazy violinist, I hear he does backflips during the show!

Yeah he did two when I went :|

Yeah, they're pretty good live, it will be a good show.

[Outsider]

I heard they're confirmed for the Sunday at Reading

Almost made me do a backflip

I like the idea of violin in punk rock. Pretty unique, I think.

[Bad Company]

I hate the idea of violin in a punk band. Fortunately Yellowcard are Pop-Punk, so it's all acceptable.

[Joeleosis]

I like the idea of bagpipes in a punk band, better. See: Mudmen

WE'RE GONNA DRINK AND FIGHT AND DRINK AND FIGHT AND DRINK AND FIGHT SOME MORE

hahaha pathetic

[Bad Company]

hahaha pathetic

What's Pathetic? The fact I have an opinion?
The way Yellowcard has been portrayed in New Zealand has been as a pop punk bullshit band that 12 year old girls scream over.
You may refer to it as punk, I refer to it as bullshit.
If you have seen a different side, then that's your own business.

Nobody forces you to listen to "pop punk."

[El Capitano Gatisto]

Nobody forces you to listen to people calling it shite either.

We have ourselves a Mexican Stand-Off.

[Bad Company]

Nobody forces you to listen to "pop punk."
exactly, and that's why I choose not to.
So whats the problem?

[road doggy dogg]

No no, I was just laughing because if it's a "punk band with a violeniist", it is blasphemous. When it's a "pop-punk band with a violenist" it is fine because it is shit. Just another one of those silly arguments over the 4-letter word that means nothing. I find stuff like that amusing is all.

Uh, what? That made no sense.

If I knew he was going to bash it, I wouldn't have read his post.

It makes as much sense as your post did. I make no effort to listen to shit pop-punk at all, but I still seem to hear quite alot of it unintentionally.

However, I only make it an issue if I complain about it, and you only make it an issue if you respond to the complaint. There is nothing here to say that you cannot criticise a band or music that you do not like, which is lucky because we all do it.

Yellowcard are derivative bollocks.

[road doggy dogg]

That's cool. Meanwhile, Yellowcard is the man.

[Bad Company]

So Besides alot of the new stuff I occasionally hear over the pop radio stations here, does anyone have any recommendations to some of their other stuff that I may not of heard?
I am open to suggestions, just nothing I have heard from them has been that impressive :)

[Penner]

Only One, Believe, Avondale, Breathing, Life of a Salesman

[TheNamelessOne]

I heard somewhere that Yellowcard had been kicked off the Less Than Jake UK tour and replaced with Capdown. Unfortunatly that didn't happen.

[fonzy]

<center><font color="#0080FF" face="Arial" Size="2">yellowcard aren't playing the cardiff and portsmouth shows, i think, and capdown are

luckily, i'm going to the wolverhampton show, and yellowcard are playing. :love:</font>

[Ska-Wars]

I was actually really disappointed that Capdown weren't doing all the LTJ dates, I'd much much rather see them than Yellowcard. I don't particularly lke them.
