every time this makes the rounds, i like to point out that while say anything made an explicit point to censor himself with an inserted censor where the original song used the n word, scary kids scaring kids went all in on it
this is a great time to bring up a specific cultural compass i don’t see talked about too frequently which is how i found this and a bunch of other bands: music choice free on demand
joyce manor really does start to hit more in the latter half of yr 20s. like yeah dawg i’ve also had a crisis at a karaoke bar while my friends were high.
this sucks but i can’t help but find the guy lovable. dude is just soaking up being the villain for the evening. like probably the funniest mf you’ll ever meet.
i bought the first pressing hot topic variant of this record when i was 17 and i sold it for scratch to buy weed that i went on to hot box my 2004 honda civic with after a 10 hour customer service shift at a grocery store, very likely listening to this or snowing on a burned cd.

“how do we get on _________”
emailing. you email somebody. don’t know who exactly to email? email somebody who’s played at the venue politely asking for a more direct contact. how do you do that? taking 3 secs to look online to see who has played.
congrats, you’re an agent now.
when i was failing math when i was in 3rd grade and i called math stupid, my dad made me write a letter to bam margera to ask him how important math is. i think about that a lot bc i don’t know where he was going with that but i’ll tell you one thing; it really pissed me off.
one time i said that i mentally file modern baseball as good in the same way that i call ‘500 days of summer’ good as in ‘i liked it when i was younger but it doesn’t serve me the same way anymore and thats fine’ and a 39 year old man married man told me to kill myself
boy i sure am glad we all JUST found out that sxsw fucking sucks TODAY and not last year or the year before that or the year before that or the year before that or the year before that or the year before that or the year before that or the year before that or the year before that
most anybody who gets on here to argue abt the inner mechanisms and ethics of touring and the music industry at large couldn’t name 3 charting rappers if you asked them to

if you thought making a pb&j on the floor at the gig was bad, wait til you see my set where i drink 6-7 beers and insult everybody between 2 minute spurts of playing my instrument
thinking abt how old school rockers used to stab and poke holes in their amp speakers for distortion as i debate pulling the trigger on a 12 month payment plan with 20% interest on a pedal that will make your guitar sound like a c. 2008 240p youtube upload
in terms of the “bands getting big and becoming cool to not like them discourse”, i would like to remind everyone that everyone, including yourself, are scared of everything and numbers on the internet don’t mean anything. i really do think everyone should be nicer to each other.
hey everyone.
tonight’s gonna be my last gig with ogbert the nerd. this has been a very difficult decision, but it should come as no surprise to any longtime fan of our band that i am not good at singing. thanks for all the memories and keep on rocking in the free world 🤘
attn bands: i literally sleep next to the person who runs philth media, so if you use me as a reference, they typically immediately ask me if i know you.
i have not talked to these ppl in 4 years. i can tell bc they refer to me with a nickname of my deadname. very awesome.
this drunk girl on a not show night
fell out of the tree in front of our house (easily 15-20 feet up) directly onto her side and onto the sidewalk and just laid there for like 10 minutes repeating “ i’m good. just need a sec” before getting back up like nothing happened
as of today i officially paid off the loan i took out for an emergency surgery on my cat, artie. she passed a few weeks after as the operation was unsuccessful. i’ve been slammed with reminders of this for a few days now, but it’s over.
here’s a picture of us from better days.
ways to make your album or ep better:
-sequence it as a full listening experience, not just which songs sound good after the other.
-think about the timbre of the full mix
-hooks and riffs
-tambourine
-rickenbacker guitars
-be british
-release it 50+ years ago
you’re welcome
call me gay or whatever but mayhaps the website that puts a cap on how much you can say at once was never a good place to have a nuanced conversation about anything ever and should primarily be used to call pictures of animals gay and shit like that
that being said, this is not a current reflection of any current politics either of these artists / groups hold. bush was president. it was a wild world to grow up in.
i’ve talked abt this with a few ppl about the “cds are back” convo and this is how i see it: cds are the new obsolete yet accessible tech you can grab at a thrift store, the same way cassette/vhs tech was for me when i started getting really into music
🧵
it’s insane the only thing from this that holds up is forever the sickest kids covering men in black bc it just sounds like a forever the sickest kids song
one more thing and i’ll drop it:
fuck you for disrespecting my partner’s intelligence and fuck you for trying to use my (dead) name for yr gain without so much as a word to me, bc tbch, i fucked with y’all til this. the name is madison. get it right or get fucked.

anytime there’s mobo news i like to recant the time i sold my first pressing of this record for $50 on pop punk merch wall in 2016, which was spent on weed and a shitty fuzz pedal i cannot remember the name of. it kind of looked like a those nickelodeon cameras tho

if it makes anybody feel better, rich kids in alt scenes aren’t as much of a problem as mid to upper middle class kids who grew up sheltered but abundantly supported by the adults in their life going away for school in some capacity and facing conflict without a visible net
if any of you are aspiring sociologists, please refer to this as a case study in that being funny on twitter is enough to get 10 offers to do a split, 3 tape label bites, and (at this time) 15 show offers
i just finished my first solo tour. i’m 650 miles from home and feel more at home than i have anywhere and everywhere. i fucking love diy. i got a lot to say but i got 650 miles to go. see y’all on the other side.
i hesitated on saying something but a few nights ago i watched somebody steal my merch off the table. it was a cd and some of the bumper stickers. i haven’t had that happen to me before and i’m kinda just sitting with it now confused more than anything else.
teenagers with laptops have been running the world for close to two decades but guitar bands will get on here to yell at each other about t-shirts and a responsible amount of food to eat on tour bc we’re all fucking idiots
