View Full Version : Boys Like Girls in Van Accident

Boys Like Girls (http://www.absolutepunk.net/boyslikegirls) were involved (http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=10292269&blogID=236883457&MyToken=3b72e118-fe6d-4c65-82d6-8a45e390b2db) in a van accident over the weekend.
So the other day we were driving through a huge snow storm at about 1 in the morning. John was behind the wheel, I (Paul) was in the passanger's seat starting to fall asleep. We had been driving about 25 mph all night because of the crazy snow and ice, and it looked like we were coming up on dry roads. So john got us back up to about 65/70 mph and it seemed like we were cruisin'. All of a sudden we started fishtailing (for what felt like an eternity) and end up sliding down the highway completely sideways until we ran into a ditch in the left side of the road. Luckily and most importantly everyone (and less importantly everything) was okay.
We all ended up calming down, and recorded a whole bunch of video before we got towed out an hour later.

Well they have all those fancy smancy road cases that costs more than normal bands gear themselves. Those things are supposed to protect from pretty much anything

hahah yeah i thought this comment was funny too, but honestly i'm sick of every person in a half-assed band thinking they're cool coz they went on tour, bands go on tour all the time, congrats.
glad these guys are okay, winter driving is much more dangerous than everyone realizes, not just for bands but for everyone.
did this happen in New Jersey? every band crashes their van in New Jersey.
thanks for crediting me :D

Being in a crappy pop band doesnt make you a "good guy".

if your hacking at that thread he put out in the rec, that band happens to be really tight.
boys like girls is okay. thats all that matters. and if you dont like them like glamour_kills i think it is, dont come in here and say you hate them.
