Updatification for your Face(TBS, UO, AFS)

Ok so, it looks like that the list of people who are going looks like this:

Amanda Camarena, Felicia Camarena, Ricky Cummings, Shannon Devine, Kamilla Moore, and Mariah Moore.

The people who are possiblities(haven't received permission yet, haven't ordered their tickets yet, etc.) are as follows: Matt Nichols, Rebekah Barker, Shayla Hamilton, and MAYBE David Wirsig(but he can get his own ride, considering he drives).

The rides are my Tahoe, and either Amanda's car or Mariah's Suburban.

To buy tickets, click on the link and scroll all the way down to March 15th in SLO, and click on the little shopping cart whatever-it-is on the left.

TBS, UO, & AFS *UPDATE*

Ok, so I'm assuming almost everyone here is going.

Shannon: I'm pretty sure you're living off my extra ticket. And no, you don't have to pay me.

Amanda: Um, my mom decided if she DOESN'T HAVE TO DRIVE, she won't. So...I guess that's her way of saying if there's room, can I please come with you guys? But if not, it's cool.

Quick poll: please name everyone in your family(including yourself) who is going so we can arrange rides and so forth.

If you want tickets, click on the link.

Spoken


Spoken, an alternative outfit that sounds like Anberlin, signed to Tooth & Nail. Spoken continues to bring alternative and modern worship to the mix, and I suggest checking them out. Especially you fans of Anberlin, Dead Poetic, and other artists in that genre.

Recommended listens: "Falling Further," "Bitter Taste," and "Wind in My Sails."

Video Spotlight: Five Iron Frenzy / "A Flowery Song"

Before everyone gets on to me, WATCH THE VIDEO. Not the best as far as quality, and not the most unique. However, to quote directly from the title of FIF's very first release - "it's funny, but not very creative." But, hey, we're talking the greatest band of all-time now. Pay due props.

Video Spotlight: The Aquabats / "Super Rad!"

Hilarious. Simply gutbusting. Appreciate, I say! Ska is on its last limb! Hark! The end is near! Or here, if you still think Less Than Jake is "true ska."

Video Spotlight: Weird Al / "White and Nerdy"

"Whiter than sour cream." Seems to fit my description, eh?

Video Spotlight: Bear Vs Shark / "Catamaran"

Mindnumbing song. Mindnumbing band. Mindnumbing vid. BVS may be dead. But that don't mean nothing when it comes to the pit.

Dustin Kensrue

Thrice's lead singer and guitarist, Dustin Kensrue, hasn't actually left the band, but decided to do his own solo project/experiment. He has a new album coming out in January, titled Please Come Home. He isn't making the same sound as Thrice; rather, he's made his own acoustic/folk sound of his own.
Recommendation: "I Knew You Before," and "Nebraska." Please Come Home is in stores January 23rd. Enjoy.

August Burns Red

"Unassuming may just be the perfect word to describe Pennsylvania-born August Burns Red. It’s no wonder with boy-next-door looks and ages ranging from 18-21 that audiences tend to be perplexed by ABR’s musical style, which makes their metal onslaught all the more captivating. Formed in March of 2003, ABR almost instantly began turning heads with their undeniable talent and knack for writing catchy licks with a tight rhythm section to match."

Well that's what's been written about them anyway.
Recommended: "Your Little Suburbia is in Ruins," "Barbarian," and "Consumer." Check out their new album Thrill Seeker also. Well, if you want.
