Oh, good. Another Bright Eyes hate thread. Exactly what we all needed. For a bunch of people who love Justin, you people seriously hate yourselves some kids.

whats gonna be in this box set? rare stuff? conor's recordings of his own bowel movements?

― Bob Shaw (Bob Shaw), Wednesday, 20 August 2003 16:51 (twenty-two years ago)

actually, this thread is about the impending BOX SET.

...hes only been around a few years

Terrible tight T-shirt indie rock, but he has been around since at least 1995.

really? but he looks about 16

― Bob Shaw (Bob Shaw), Wednesday, 20 August 2003 16:57 (twenty-two years ago)

looks like a bit of a repackage-and-resell ripoff to me.

"actually, this thread is about the impending BOX SET."

Oh right, it's not a hate thread at all. My mistake. Don't know what could have led me to think that.

it's remastered vinyl versions of four albums and eps, he's at least 21 now.

― anthony kyle monday (akmonday), Wednesday, 20 August 2003 17:07 (twenty-two years ago)

he's 23, recording since 1993.

― shut up, Wednesday, 20 August 2003 17:21 (twenty-two years ago)

he's 47, but he looks great.

Psh, I've been recording that long too, where's the Nickalicious BOX SET?

(answer: still in "the vault" aka filling 4 shoeboxes and a tupperware bowl in my closet)

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Wednesday, 20 August 2003 17:33 (twenty-two years ago)

have they been previously released on vinyl? if not, then this would make some amount of sense. You know a solid percentage of his fans are down with vinyl and would fork out the money to acquire it..

Hi, Roger, I'm Ben. Nice to meet you. I don't have any of these albums on vinyl, and each one of them has a couple of songs that I like. And it's very reasonably priced, so I'm looking forward to it. Take care!

― Ben Boyer, Wednesday, 20 August 2003 19:55 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't get it. I don't particularly like Bright Eyes. But it seems like fairly harmless music and it's hardly some kind of pervasive top 40 tour de force that is impossible to avoid. Why does anyone care?

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 20 August 2003 20:31 (twenty-two years ago)

I am so forming a band that will cover nothing but Bright Eyes, DMB, and Coldplay.. just for ILx

― Curt1s St3ph3ns, Wednesday, 20 August 2003 20:36 (twenty-two years ago)

i think it's because he's so deadly earnest and pretentious. but i like him!

― amateurist (amateurist), Wednesday, 20 August 2003 20:38 (twenty-two years ago)

Curt1s, will the band sound similar to Good Charlotte?

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 20 August 2003 20:41 (twenty-two years ago)

I think its some kind of sad rallying point for ILM. Most corny indie fuxors I know hate Bright Eyes. So here is where they get to try to tagalong with the ILM mafia.

awwwww, it's cute how you're all jealous of conor.

― reo fordecor, Wednesday, 20 August 2003 20:47 (twenty-two years ago)

b-b-but he's just jealous of dmcb!

― nnnh oh oh nnnh nnnh oh (James Blount), Wednesday, 20 August 2003 20:53 (twenty-two years ago)

This is a bit like asking if I'm jealous of Zac de la Rocha.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 20 August 2003 21:37 (twenty-two years ago)

ARE YOU?

― nnnh oh oh nnnh nnnh oh (James Blount), Wednesday, 20 August 2003 21:39 (twenty-two years ago)

I'll get back to you on that.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 20 August 2003 21:54 (twenty-two years ago)

come wit it now

I desperately want to meet the unfortunate and frivolous idiot who is going to shell out his or her hard-earned money for a Bright Eyes BOX SET

ARE YOU?
