That is a possibility. We had a ton of submissions from staff. 2003 was a good year.

I sure hope your username is a Rocko reference.

Anyway, this list makes me feel old. So many of the first records I loved. Best live band out of these is SOTY but I prefer In the Wake and Black Swan to Page Avenue.

If I had my choice, these would be the reunion tours:
Rise Against - Revolutions Per Minute
Brand New - Deja Entendu
Lucero - That Much Further West
Frenzal Rhomb - Sans Souci
Blink-182 - Blink-182
The Mars Volta - De-Loused in the Comatorium

Glad to see Sing The Sorrow on the list. I don't think it'll happen since AFI is keeping a pretty low profile these days. They haven't really done anything cool for the fans lately either. If it happens though, it will be the coolest musical experience ever for me. Those songs are why I'm into music, and nothing would ever top hearing it in it's entirety. I'm also hoping Adeline does a vinyl repressing (with the silver cover would be awesome) since it's so long out of print, but that's also pretty doubtful, I'd say.

Tours I'd also enjoy:
Coheed and Cambria - In Keeping Secrets (even though I've seen this happen already)
Alkaline Trio - Good Mourning
The Lawrence Arms - The Greatest Story Ever Told
Rise Against - Revolutions Per Minute
Rufio - MCMLXXXV
The Mars Volta - Deloused In The Comatorium

(Broken up bands:)
From Autumn To Ashes - The Fiction We Live

I would die for an Armor for sleep - wtdwyd and a matchbook romance tour.

afi haven't done much cuz half of afi is doing Blaqk Audio right now

Would be incredibly excited for Yellowcard, SOTY, Brand New, or FOB.. I'm sure I'll at least get to see a couple of those happen.

lol

So late to this, but I'm really pleased to see Billy Talent made the cut.
