 Post subject: in this thread, i will distribute cool points.Posted: Mon Oct 31, 2005 5:23 am 
okay, so i was at the show last night in philly. it was good show, i saw some cool people, blah, etc.. what i'm really here to do is take care of some business. 1. garron i had never met garron before, but he proved himself to be a truly worthy succesor to jon wilson. we threw down for 5 minutes or so about necks and pickups and such. anyone who can keep up with a gear geek such as myself in an equipment discussion gets cool points in my book. +5 cool points 2. mark i told him he looked like philo from uhf. he said that was the nicest thing anyone ever said to him about his appearance. definite cool points there for having such fine taste in movies. +5 cool points 3. weston after the show, weston was taking some pictures of himself on his camera phone "in case he ever forgot his identity." the lighting was bad, so he shined a flashlight on himself to make up for it. cool points there for his photographic sensibilities. +5 cool points 4. luke luke was supposed to remind me to by a t-shirt before i left. he forgot. bummer. -5 cool points 5. john he's a swell guy. that's all i got. +5 cool points 6. chauntelle two words: breathing fire. +10 cool points 7. boyd boyd didn't know "optimistic" off the top of his head...i had to sing a few lines to get him to pick up on it. however, it's sort of excusable since it was late and he was running off about an hour of sleep. -5 cool points however, i was wearing my frodus t-shirt, and not only did he know frodus, but he also had one of their records. face it kids, boyd has better taste than you. +10000 cool points 8. sherri and stacy okay, so i had seen a few comments about "many funerals" being a cool song. however, NOBODY MENTIONED IT CHANGES TIME SIGNATURES SOMETHING LIKE 6 FREAKIN TIMES!!! since when was eisley a math rock band? that's beyond awesome. if the new record has more songs like that, i'm probably just going to give up listening to non-eisley bands altogether. +999999999 cool points so there you have it. and if you're not on this list, you're obviously not cool

i used to distribute cool points. but it got tiresome. everybody wanted them, and for the dumbest things, but being the nice person i am, i distributed them. and then ... i gave a cool point for someone using the proper form of "there/their/they're" and i realized it had gone too far. that is something every sane, intelligent person should do automatically! so i stopped with the cool points. but i like yours. they're grand. _________________ Facebook & Twitter & Blog(ish)-type thing |

[quote="ryan fisher"] 8. sherri and stacy okay, so i had seen a few comments about "many funerals" being a cool song. however, NOBODY MENTIONED IT CHANGES TIME SIGNATURES SOMETHING LIKE 6 FREAKIN TIMES!!! since when was eisley a math rock band? that's beyond awesome. [/l quote] that was one of the first things i noticed about that song. amazing. i hope there are others like that on the new record _________________ Flutter girl killing me with her sunshine... she's so unaware that she's my melpomene. hi www.myspace.com/musicislove |

Well, maybe not quite as cool, but almost. If I could become a cross between Philo and Martin Van Buren, I would be the coolest guy ever. Oh yeah, Many Funerals is the best song ever, supplanting Sunfeet. -Mark |

But yes, Many Funerals is just plain incredible. If I've ever heard perfection, that is probably it. _________________ Thistledown |

Changing time signatures? Best news ever. And could anybody be as big a gearhead as me? _________________ Scriptozoology, a screenwriting blog .. Facebook |

to me all songs are technically in 1/1 time( my piano teacher would probably reject this theory.) |
