i saw them play w/dashboard, mxpx and vendetta red. What a HUGE dissapointment. What is so good about this Jesse, when he wasn't busy muttering his solom lyrics he was mumbling some incoherant message that nobody could hear. Although he looked tortured, his voice was really weak, the crowd was singing louder than him and sort of drowned this guy out. I am of course very dissapointed esp since everyone here loves them. I am not looking for an argument, I just thought I'd share my opinion.

Theres your reason right there buddy. If the crowd is singing loud enough to drown the band out, then that means that they are damn good.

I've seen Brand New a fews times live and they were amazing each time. One of the times I saw them Jesse was sick, so his singing sounded a little bit off, but they still kicked ass.

I think Brand New recieves way too much hype. Yes, they're very talented and I am a fan of some of their stuff, but in all honesty I just don't think they deserve as near as much as what they're getting. But im happy for them I guess.

At least that's when you know that they're dedicated.

And I don't think they recieve too much hype. They're a great band, and deserve the hype. It's cool to see an LI band get that big, a la TBS.

brand new is a great band, and i think they deserve the hype their gettin. although i dont approve of it. this time next year (RIP the movielife by the way) all the lil mtv freaks will be screaming for the quiet things or sic transit gloria. and of course jesse will become an obcession for all those lil 12 year old girls who prolly wouldnt kno what 'your favorite weapon' is if you asked em.

bottom line, brand new rocks, but i hope to god they dont get their own fucking tv show. *cough* good charlotte *cough*

Oh man, Brand New is so great. I've only seen them once during Warped tour so I can't say much about them live since it's hard to judge from Warped.But musically...oh my! and whats this about Crappy (good haha) charlotte getting a TV show!?!?! PLEASE GOD TELL ME YOU ARE JUST KIDDING

those damn annoying twins have a show called 'all things rock' on mtv. some of the videos are ok, but its just a sign as to how quickly they sold out. and i thought blink was bad. (even tho i hear good things about the upcoming cd)

but good charlotte makes blink look like chumbawumba.

Deja Entendu sounds like Brand New is trying to be something they're not...

The new album has some decent lyrics, but the music is incredibly lame. They're getting so much hype these days because Jesse is trying to be Morissey...

Brand New's live show has suffered too... Definitely not as cool as it used to be...

thats my point..it was made to show how bad good charlotte actually did sell out. i personally have been a blink fan for a long time, and i was quite irked when i learned that they sold out. and i like them a hell of alot better than good charlotte. personally, i hope GC dies in a tour bus accident....

has anyone seen that commercial on mtv, how GC will come to your school and do a concert and tell you all the facts about STDs and sex?

If I won, my life would be complete. ;)

Oh wonderful, another failed attempt to target and reach out to teens, try to be their friends, and try to teach them about sex and diseases, which very few will listen to. This may be the most ridiculous approach that I've ever heard.

I'm bitchy today :p ;)

im entitled to my opinion dumbass. god knows if it actually happened id feel bad fer saying it. i was merely trying to emphasize my disliking for them.
i was once sadly a gc fan myself. it wasnt until i realized what they were that i stopped respecting them. give me a break here you cant possibly tell me youve never wished death upon someone even if you didnt remotely mean it...

but meanwhile back in the BRAND NEW topic....

I could completely rip apart your post, but it isn't worth the time. You've already demonstrated your level of intelligence.

jesus christ man, this isnt supposed to be an argument. this is all because i stated an opinion. if i offended you im sorry, but then again, what right did you have to tell me to shutup for stating my opinion?

the opinion of which by the way that wasnt meant to be taken literally...

Ok, I don't care if they hate GC or not. It was the fact that they wish death upon them that I was attacking, as were many other people but you've all seemed to overlook that. :rolleyes:

I have plenty of friends, thanks.
