If you have never seen them live, they are one of the best I have ever heard so you should check out the show.

splendid.

so I take it they're the only band you've ever heard live?

This is pretty awesome

I saw them live a loooong time ago at House of Blues in Myrtle and seriously still is one of the most memorable (in a good way) shows I've ever seen. Sure, it's no U2 concert, but I really liked 'em.

I'd go, but I'm getting married that same day

I remember the thread back when they broke up and hoping that jump little children would follow suit.

The only time I saw Far Too Jones was at the free show in the student health center parking lot in 2001. They were sandwiched somewhere between the Beatnuts, Naughty by Nature and De La Soul. I guess it was the UAB's attempt to diversify the entertainment a little bit but no one was feeling it because they were so out of place. Good show otherwise.

Far too jones is incredible.

Julianna is one of my favorite songs.

First of all, what is "emo-tastic?" What would qualify a band as such a thing?



And no, I bash them because they're not that good. I was mainly bashing the person who said "It is no U2 Concert..." anyway.

say what you want, there's nothing like watching "The Edge" play the same chord in 16th notes all night long

8/10/2006 6:17:00 PM

^ Finally, one who agrees with me.

Jullianna (sp?) is indeed a great some, their whole 1st album was solid as well

This thread is hilarious on so many levels.

Didn't they keep having their "last show ever" over and over again for about a year?

I still to this day regret wasting my time on Brent Road and missing that show.
