Yeah so I'm seeing Yellowcard tonight.
 

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

yeah, they do a pretty good live show.

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.

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

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

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

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."

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

We have ourselves a Mexican Stand-Off.

exactly, and that's why I choose not to.
So whats the problem?

Dropkick Murphys. :o

The Pogues.

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.

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 :)

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

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

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

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.
