I think its interesting how many people I saw at Irving Plaza that didn't know any songs from TAYF except Cute Without E. Seriously, though, because that CD is so much better, and you'd think if these kids liked WWTB they'd check out TAYF.

i dont' get why if you like one album better than the other that means the other album is bad. when a band puts out a new album, does that mean ou have to trhow out the old one or never listen to it ever again?

then why the constant fight, it's really silly.. why can;t you just decide if you like louder now regardless of wether it's better or worse than another record you have? the ghost song is better than head club.. there.. what the heck does tha tprove or matter?

TAYF was so good I still like TBS despite the facts that a) TAYF is the only good TBS album and b) TAYF came out like 5 years ago. I've never given a band a bigger pass.

Still, good for them.

see what happens when you prepare before your album comes out and play ball? TBS worked their asses off to get the awareness of this record out there and it paid off. good for them. to those bands who think that the record sales will magically appear, let this be a lesson. have everything in place before your record comes out....tends to help situations.
