ok, all you need to know about this wack band is that this is the tagline for their website: "Pop punk/emo-rock band from Chicago." that, and maybe this promo shot:

Lyor Cohen: sign pop-punk band -> Sum41 -> done...
Jay-Z: lookin' to sign pop-punk band -> ?
I never realized he was so short...
Or so chubby...
Or so sweaty.
first Linkin Park & now this??
---
Then he's lookin' out for his assets and lettin' 'em know that he @ least knows who they are...
Actually ..He has that Coach look going right there. Like "Come on emo kid go in there and get me the paper!"
I don't think Jay is that tall, they are just some emo little dudes!
Lucky!
Jay is pretty tall, he's about 6' 2"
You know maybe Beyonce is a big fan and she was like "Come on Jay you are the boss....I wanna go backstage.....and I wann get a picture!" Jay was like "Damn...now I gotta go talk to these barley going gold emo suckas that I'm gonna drop next year...and take a photo that is gonna get ridiculed up on the uberhip soulstrut board....or else Beyonce ain't gonna let me poke it out tongiht." All boyfriends have been in this position b4...not at this magnitude..but
Naw he's like "Dammmmm you a fine little shirtless white boy. Hey, I heard about a party in Williamsburg where we can grind and get freaky with any hardcore brothers making us scared. You wanna get jiggy?"
So that's the thanks I get for asking Hove where he keeps his yacht so you can "accidentally" run into him when you're on "Me-Time"? Fine. Next time you're down at Baller's Pier, casually (but no, never intentionally) strolling by Jay to ask him "So what do you deem to be the highest quality amaretto almond liqueur on the market, Shawnny my good man?" you can remind yourself that you are officially x'd out of my life.
Jeez, dude, must the language of the emo poptart creep into everything you say?
No, I guess I should've read the earlier posts. The band are signed to Island.
I doubt Nelly is going to just randomly meet a band like The Gloryholes.
I know this fool all the way on the left. that dude was a staight up straight edge gang banger. He got his ass beat by a house full of frat boys when they caught his ass going out the back door with a DVD player. on the real, he's a pretty rad dude....but his band is horrible.
Seriously. Now I'm not really in the know (but not in the altogether) regarding Indie Rock To-day, but when I hear "Chicago" and "indie," I generally think of labels like Touch and Go, shops like Reckless Records, and groups like Tortoise or Pelican. I was aware of this "Fall Out Boy" act being popular (or, perhaps more appropriately, well-promoted), but I hadn't actually heard their music until today, on the communal work radio station. Jesus, what passes for "hot shit" these days. It's on some "younger-cousin-wearing-your-old-jeans" thing. Third rate second generation emo. Just like when Candlebox came out with "Lucy" and you were a high schooler, thinking: "I was just starting to really hate Pearl Jam, when something even worse came along to make me long to hear them on the radio instead of 'Cumbersome.'"
And even then, all this was all pre-Scott-Stapp.
WHO WILL BE THE SCOTT STAPP OF THE NEXT EMO GENERATION? WHO WILL ASSUME THE MANTLE?
I must say, though: the "white-guy-with-wireframe-glasses = smart independent rock music" stereotype is just as faulty as the "afro on cover = mad funk braeks" stereotype. Don't believe the hype.
Over, out.
WE GOT THE BAND BACK TOGETHER MAN
