If I was 15 again and hung posters of rock bands on my wall, I would definitely have the Vines displayed prominently.
The Vines are everything that is right with modern rock; commerically viable yet hip, hard but with good pop-sense, and a charismatic front man who is total eye candy.
So, wow, already there's new Modest Mouse, new Norah Jones, new Vines, and a Rocket From the Tombs record that blew me away and it's just now March.
2004 is turning out to be a very good year already.
p.s. i'm very amused that you called another man eye candy.
but c'mon... that dude from the Vines... the full lips, the big doe-eyes, the haphazard bowl haircut... he's got great skin, too... he's a total rock and roll poster boy...
the kinks
the beatles
the who
the animals
the doors
the zombies
the ramones
the stooges
the vines
the strokes
the hives
of course my personal favorite... The The
hmm
I can't figure out whether I should travel to Chicago or Atlanta to see them, (both considerably long distances from Owensboro)...
Modest Mouse rocks my socks <3
_j-me_
Re: hmm
as for Chicago or Atlanta... it may depend on which you can get tickets for if you don't already have them :)... but as far is distance, it's about the same either way... Chicago might be just a tad closer, but not by much... the trip to Atlanta would be a more interesting drive... :)
hte new modest mouse is REALLY good.... it's supposed to be out all "official" like this month i think...
total crazy bad boy hotness.
luv em!
