True Story: In 2000 I was in 9th grade and, having decided the previous summer that I liked blink-182 better than Limp Bizkit, I was trying to establish myself as a punk rocker, but all I listened to were blink, Green Day, and MXPX. I didn't know anything, but neither did anybody else it seemed. Music was something on the radio and MTV, and we know what kind of variety exists there. Anyway, I ate this song up because I thought it was a new exciting punk band. I remember stopping whatever I was doing and paying attention when that video came on. I was so deprived of anything that seemed sincere that those hair cuts, snotty lyrics, and crunchy guitars seemed like something. At least it wasn't "Nookie." I didn't buy the cd because I didn't have any money, but I held it my hand at the mall once. It had a robot or some sort of schematic or something on the cover.

By the end of that year I saw somebody wearing a Dead Kennedys t-shirt and then I got napster and the world became a more interesting place.

Waiting for the No Age or Japandroids or someone's 'ironic' cover version. Yea, it's just carbon-copy Blink with bad haircuts and lyrics, but I'm always happy to hear groups sounding like that on commercial radio and video channels rather than like grunge-lite (or pompous and non-rocking like some current NPR/Pitchfork indie).

SR-71 are from Baltimore, they just played a reunion show here last week. the singer is now a semi-big pop producer/songwriter, does stuff with a lot of American Idol alums, I tried to get an interview w/ him but never heard back.

it's a crazy college where you come from (some dude), Sunday, 29 November 2009 22:12 (sixteen years ago)

^I did not know that. I grew up 40 minutes from Baltimore. they could have been my local heroes.

According to wikipedia, they also wrote "1985," the song that made Bowling for Soup famous

Is that what he's actually saying? I assumed I was mishearing it. What does that even mean?
