....
Why?
That's horrible.

Seriously, what the fuck, it's bad enough that 12 year olds are listening, now my kid brother will ask me for their CD. Honestly...

Seriously, what the fuck, it's bad enough that 12 year olds are listening, now my kid brother will ask me for their CD. Honestly... I don't understand all of the fuss over younger kids listening to the music 'we' do. I'd rather have my little brother listening to Cartel or some band of the sort than have him listening to crap. I think it's awesome that kids are starting out young listening to good music. Meh, maybe it's just me.

Wierd

[MusicOrMisery]

When I read that, my face did this: :blink:

However, I can understand getting their music to a wider audience, but Cartoon Network viewers...really?

Nice directive post there.

[gonfreaks]

It's a bit strange, but I guess the publicity will be good for them...

[phoenixinflames]

i really dont understand why people are bothered by this. They are one of the catchiest band on the planet and the kind of pop music kids seem to be into these days, thanks to the Fall Out Boy craze. This band will probably get huge, but not cause of something like this...I'm still waiting for their TRL spot.

Cartoon network was better back in da day

It doesn't bother me in the slightest, but you have to admit, that is some strange news. And why the hell is Cartoon Network doing all these live action things recently?

Case and point.

[cahrishurr]

thats odd....but it doesnt bother me

[Ruggiero2oo8]

hmm, okay.

I totaly agree

[TBS70x7]

Cartoon network was better back in da day

Back in the days of Dexter's Lab and when they played Looney Tunes for like 8 hours every night.

I think this is actually cool, I mean at least my younger brother may get a better taste in music now.

[mikeyystyles]

yea but, we obviously all new that something like this would happen. they have the catchiest sound out there and can be marketed to any audience. too bad they couldnt stay our little secret.

[LilRyan732]

That's cool. I don't have Fuse or Havoc Music or anything like that, and it's hard pressed to find any good music on MTV, BET, or VH1. I'm glad some of "our" bands can get the exposure they deserve.

when i was 12, i was listening to korn and limp bizkit. i wish i had an older sibling to give me some good shit to listen to...

[StandMyBrothers]

meaaa, I can watch Cartoon Network for once again

[ticklemyfancy]

at least kids will start listening to good stuff instead listening to garbage thats only available to them

[crazycatlady]

ha. my brother doesn't watch anything but cartoon network. maybe this will be of some good 'cause i most likely won't miss it. =D

[leftstranded]

wait time out. the cartoon network has a concert series?

[1.8Nate]

Don't forget that the Cartoon Network isn't JUST targeted at little kids. This could be on Adult Swim couldn't it?

[Cue the Sun]

haha dexter's lab forever!!

[*crying stars*]

i was just thinking that.

it's probably going to be around that late night time.

[BehindACamera]

yeah thats what I was thinking, Cartoon Network and Adult Swim are completely different and have very different audiences.

And how is Cartoon network doing a concert series when all of their programming is cartoons? Are they going to animate the bands? That would be crazy

[quixotic]

Actually, I think Cartoon Network has played the movie Dumb and Dumber at least once so they don't stick to just cartoons all the time.. I bet it will be on Adult Swim though.

[Loch_Doun]

adult swim possibly??

[joeshmoe909]

Hahah exposure is exposure, congrats.

[permanentdan]

i look forward to it. maybe then they wont put on peewees playhouse like they keep saying they are haha. they do do some live action stuff, like saved by the bell was on for a while, but i feel that any exposure these boys get, good for them. they deserve to be heard. i also think its good for younger kids to hear too

[MotionIsntMeaning]

wait time out. the cartoon network has a concert series?

yeh I found that strange too.

[TgE ARTdamage]

hmmm.

too bad i'm not a HUGE cartel fan, but just an AVERAGE cartel fan.

i'm not gonna go nuts if i miss this.

[iihungrieii]

i find that very awkward.. but its good that theyre getting bigger!

[phtmatt8]

i really don't see cartel not taking any offers that come their way. i remember will in an interview said they wanted to be huge. i think they'll do it any way possible.

[Julia Conny]

Aww, I think that's kinda cute.

[Julia Conny]

adult swim possibly??

Haha, I think Adult Swim is almost too cool for Cartel.

[cahrishurr]

adult swim and cartel doesnt make much sense

cartel could be played on nick jr they are so family friendly

that doesnt take away from how good there music is..or to make them seem childish
they just arent explicit in anyway

[J4xoR]

LOL? Too strange... but cool in a sense. :rolleyes:

[Chris Fallon]

Okay, so it's a bit of an odd promotion, but if they were on Nickelodeon, I'd be more worried, in all honesty.

My 10-year old brother is in love with "Honestly" though, and I couldn't be happier. I don't want him to like the awful pop-sugary shit out there. He's like me, and digs on Fall Out Boy and Cartel, and even the Format! As long as the Cartoon Network's viewers aren't standing next to me at the next Cartel show, struggling to hold up devil horns and crying...I'm fine with this.

[CorporateFish]

I think they should use a different plan to get big and populer, but whatever, either way it's going to happen.

[Loch_Doun]

taking back sunday was on Noggin, the teen nickelodeon network...
