Hellllllo friends

[MaybeOneDay]

What's going on ?

I just thought i'd stop by and see how things are holding up on this end ? In case any of you have wondered where I have been..let me explain. I've recently started a ska band with some good friends of mine and we're doing quite well. We're likely going to be touring through the entire summer. Aside form that, i've been really busy. With summer finally coming around theres been tons of parties and awesome shows and stuff around here. So, in conclusion, I likely won't be around for much of the summer, if any of it at all. Just wanted to say hey to all of you though, and that hopefully I find you all well. Anayways, I gotta get going, i'll see you's around.

[aurora]

You're in a band? Do you have a website or any MP3's or stuff of that nature to share with us all?

Well, congrats on all that stuff. I've just recently been back so I dont really know "what's going on" but I think everything is the way it always is... Um, have a good summer!

[nicholai]

I quit reading after I saw "ska".

[Lueda Alia]

I miss you around here :(

and yes... @ what Katy said... are there any mp3's that we can listen to...?

[Lueda Alia]

oh and... are you coming to London with your band? lol

[Patrick]

I quit reading after I saw "ska".

[MaybeOneDay]

haha fuuuuuck that. ska is the shit. it's all about having fun, and giving some people some quality music they can dance too. ska > you.

[Lueda Alia]

awesome :D

[aurora]

hey, you never know ;)

DO IT!

:D <3

By the way, what is the name of your band?

[boysdontcry]

people forget what real ska is. ska isn't the bosstones, less than jake, or reel big fish.

[Thomas Sway]

Damn Bran, how are you getting shows booked in London already?

[MaybeOneDay]

I've got alot of connections with tons of different venues, labels, producers, management companies and booking agents. I've worked with alot of bands before so booking shows isn't really that hard for me. :)

[MaybeOneDay]

people forget what real ska is. ska isn't the bosstones, less than jake, or reel big fish.
You're right, but that's a type of ska. Ska can be anything you want it to be.

[Patrick]

and nah, no mp3's quite yet. soon though. and yes, we'll probably make a stop in london. hope to see you at the show! :)
ska > summer 99

[MaybeOneDay]

I'm hoping you're aware that didn't make any sense.

[Lueda Alia]

Damn Bran, how are you getting shows booked in London already?


hmm London is like 1 hour and a half away from Toronto. just so you know.

[The Bled 13]

Goodluck with your band dude, have you talked to any labels?

[Patrick]

I'm hoping you're aware that didn't make any sense.
Im hoping you're aware it did make sense... ska was so 99

[The Bled 13]

Hey dude lets limit the assholishness towards Brandon. Beyond what you think that kid is probably the coolest kid on here, or was on here.

[MaybeOneDay]

Well, then shouldn't you have put Ska = Summer of 99 and not Ska > Summer of 99 ? If ska was so 1999, how can ska be greater than 1999 ?

Yeah, think about it.

And thanks The_Bled_13 (i'm terribly sorry, but its been a while and i forget your actual name..my bad) for the kind words.

About record labels, we've tlaked to a few small local ones, but its all just in the works.

[aurora]

Brandon love, come to PA.

[StartingLine182]

I always thought you would be in an Emo band. Knowing your taste in music I think your band will be very good though. Tell us when you get some mp3s or something. Good luck too..maybe someday you can tour with Blink.

[MaybeOneDay]

Brandon love, come to PA.
Once we schedule some american dates i'm sure we'll come to PA. :)

[MaybeOneDay]

I'll let you know for sure.

Touring with Blink is my all-time dream. I would die to do that. :)

[Patrick]

Well, then shouldn't you have put Ska = Summer of 99 and not Ska > Summer of 99 ? If ska was so 1999, how can ska be greater than 1999 ?

it cant... because ska was never good.

[aurora]

Yay. :D


I dont remember if I asked this yet, but what is the name of your band?

[boysdontcry]

Brandond, Congrats.
Just some advice from another person on here whos in a band.. Im sure you already know this, but touring without and album or a recorded EP is insane. There you go, thats my advice. Good luck with everything. Oh also, try to get on the afternoon radio show in whatever city youre playing in, it really brings out the crowds.

[MaybeOneDay]

it cant... because ska was never good.
Then how was ska so 1999 ?

Seriously Patrick, you don't make any logical sense what-so-ever.

Katy, as for our band name, we thought we'd go with something completely unserious. We're called "Jimmy And The Citrus". That won't mean anything to any of you, but it's an inside joke with about 200 people from my town. So the name is actually very funny to people around here. We're just all about having fun. :)

[MaybeOneDay]

dude, give the guy a break. even if you don't like ska you should be happy for him.
Meh, it's all good. I've grown to learn that Patrick is a douche bag.

[boysdontcry]

i want to hear your band, it sounds cool from what you've said.

[Patrick]

dude, give the guy a break. even if you don't like ska you should be happy for him.
he hated on me first... but w/e. good luck

[aurora]

Heh... Jimmy and the Citrus..okay then.

If you get MP3's you should pass them Tate's way, you know if they're good he'd do what he could for you.

Just a thought in case it hasn't crossed your mind. :)

[MaybeOneDay]

Oh yeah, for sure. That's a great idea.

When we get some mp3's finished, we'll be passing them around to anyone and everyone. So be on the look out. ;)

[aurora]

Marvelous... I really want to hear you guys.

So what do you do in the band?
Oh, and how are things with that girl? Any better?

[Patrick]

Meh, it's all good. I've grown to learn that Patrick is a douche bag.
fuck you, you started the shit in the first place, ive been doing well here until you came back, i tried to say good luck to you and call off this shit but you insist to fight.

[MaybeOneDay]

fuck you, you started the shit in the first place, ive been doing well here until you came back, i tried to say good luck to you and call off this shit but you insist to fight.
If you had decided to open your eyes, you would've seen I posted that BEFORE you said good luck and tried to "call off this shit".

[MaybeOneDay]

Marvelous... I really want to hear you guys.

So what do you do in the band?
Oh, and how are things with that girl? Any better?
I play lead guitar, sing back-up vocals, and skank on stage. Haha.

About the girl situation, nah, nothings really changed. I'm just not letting it get to me anymore. If I can't have her, i'm happy being her "best guy friend". Heh. :)

[Patrick]

If you had decided to open your eyes, you would've seen I posted that BEFORE you said good luck and tried to "call off this shit".
When?

Oh yeah, for sure. That's a great idea.
This?, then sorry man, my bad... i thought you refering to her idea about you going to wherever tate is..

[MaybeOneDay]

Ok, now i'm really confused. But, whatever.

Enough of the internet drama. We both lose. Sorry.

[Lueda Alia]

I play lead guitar, sing back-up vocals, and skank on stage. Haha.

awww.. I'm sure some other girl will come around & will make you forget about her. ok not forget about her, but you know, move on. plus you're in a baannnnd. and you play guitar. now that is hottt =)

[MaybeOneDay]

awww.. I'm sure some other girl will come around & will make you forget about her. ok not forget about her, but you know, move on. plus you're in a baannnnd. and you play guitar. now that is hottt =)

[aurora]

Haha, exactly what Eda said.

[Lueda Alia]

haha I'm sure they will. well, the cool ones will anyway. oh and hey? I know exactly how you feel... because I'm in the same situation pretty much, except that he doesn't know. and yeah I know how much it sucks.... but meh, we will both find other people :D

[Lueda Alia]

Haha, exactly what Eda said.

lol seee Brandon, there you go.

Katy's smart =)

[boysdontcry]

drummers get no love.

"you're in a band?"
"yeah."
"what do you play?"
"i'm the drummer."
"cool. i gotta go, bye."

[Lueda Alia]

lol umm I guesss. I mean its cool when a guy plays drums too... as long as he's in a band...

I have a thing for guys who play piano the most. then guys who play guitar/bass guitar come 2nd. but yeah guys who play piano... too hottt for words.. ::coughcoughandrewmcmahoncoughcough :: :D

[boysdontcry]

[Lueda Alia]

all of what?

[boysdontcry]

all of those instruments?

plus violin :)

[aurora]

<33333 for all the drummers out there. ESPECIALLY Enrique. :)


Eda, I feel you there, it is sexy when a guy plays piano. I just like it when a guy is musical period.


And yes, Eda and I are smart, so dont question us!

Haha :D

[Thomas Sway]

hmm London is like 1 hour and a half away from Toronto. just so you know.

Oh Canadian London....lol. sorry.

[Jamison Kane]

Haha, exactly what Eda said.
Dear Lord, I hate ska with all of my being.

[hXc_pwnage]

Aw man, I missed all of it.

Your band needs to come down to Atlanta. No one else does. :(

[ruttless]

haha ska does suck

yeh skas gay

[The Bled 13]

What kind of music do you like Mr. Kane?

[BrandNew20]

Ska is alright at times...mostly during the summer...

[The Bled 13]

To be honest, the only ska band I ever liked was Mustard Plug. Than I sold their CD's.

I don't like ska so much anymore.
