Breakdowns and Bro-downs galore. So many Broseph Stalins are gonna be up in this bitch!

I can see minor league hockey arenas picking up this tour package.

Glad Rise Against loves what they do, but I feel like my time with them is kind of over. I never listened to End Game. The record before that was just okay to me. I hate to be that guy that lives in the past, but Revolutions per Minute is still one of my all-time favorite punk records. I am glad they are seeing some success, but I am just not into their sound anymore.

Sad, but true.

I'm extremely excited as well.

omg so stoked...

everyone knows that Rise Against will be the headliner right? ADTR will most likely be direct support.

Bros, Mtv kids, Radio Rockers, Scene kids and some more but that alone is awful.


Hahah this is true. At least it's easy to ignore such crowds. I've been to enough Mayhems, Uproars, and Ozzfests to know how to deal with it. If you like the music, you shouldn't let a godawful crowd affect your fun.

I really don't get the hate for new RA. Endgame is EASILY better than Appeal to Reason.

I'm assuming it was meant to be a joke. And while I agree it's not entirely true--there's certainly a whole mess of truth in the matter. If they didn't attract that element, they wouldn't be able to be as big as they are.

Either way: I wish they would stop touring with all of these "happycore" or whatever the shit they call 'em bands. My life doesn't need any A Day To Remember or Four Year Strong in it.

I'm stoked these are two of my all time favorite bands. i hope it comes to so cal.

marsvoltamcr 10/13/11 01:35 PM

And how could you be mad that radio listeners are into a certain band? I've been into ADTR since FTWHH, and I think it's beyond awesome that they've gotten so popular. It's very cool when a band you like starts getting major recognition.

Yeah. Most RA fans actually don't strike me as that, but what do I know? I don't go to shows as often as I used to so maybe times change.

I don't get the hate or jokes against RA at all. They do some really respectable things and they had a pretty good catalog. I haven't listened to anything recently.
