Popularity rank 1 #17. After the breakup

April 5, 2005

JOHN: It's like, she was such a huge part of my life, so it's not just like my girlfriend left me, but my whole life.

JOHN: And so now it's like, what now? Where do I go? It's all gone, my future, I don't even... it's all gone.

DAN: I hear ya, man. It's... you know, it's tough. And whenever you wanna talk, you just let me know.

DAN: We should probably finish this set first though maybe.

Popularity rank 2 #135. Friendship is based on trust

August 2, 2006

STEWART: John? Hey, man. What's... up?
JOHN: "What's up?" I had a show last night, Stewart. Where the hell were you?
STEWART: Oh... I...

JOHN: A friendship is based on trust, Stewart. I loan you my friendship, and I trust you will repay me by coming to my shows, but you've been missing payments, man!

STEWART: And I'm foreclosing on our friendship, Stewart!
JOHN: Whoa.

STEWART: Can I have my Newsradio DVDs back, then?
JOHN: No, Stewart! No! Those DVDs were... "friendship collateral."

Popularity rank 3 #31. Time estimates for the concert tonight

July 19, 2005

GREG: OK. So. Doors open at 7. Opening band starts at 8.
BRETT: They're done at 9:30. The main band goes on at 10.

GREG: They play all the crappy songs off their new album for an hour.
BRETT: They play old, crowd-pleasing radio hits until 11:30.

GREG: We get there at midnight, to catch the encore with the heartfelt acoustic number.
BRETT: ...and the showstopping cover of some Kinks' song.

GREG: OK, great... hey, which band are we seeing again?
BRETT: I forget. I think they were big in the 90's. Or 80's.

Popularity rank 4 #16. First time at North 6th

March 29, 2005

JOHN: Wow... our first show at North 6th! Man, this rules.
DAN: Hey look! Someone's scalping tickets!

JOHN: Hey man, how much are these going for?
BEN: I dunno, at this point, I guess like $3 each.

BEN: They're been kinda hard to unload. People just don't wanna pay to see one good band and one crappy little local band.

JOHN: Hey... we are that crappy little local band, man.
BEN: OK... well, I could knock it down to $4 for both, but that's about it...

February 3, 2009

KEVIN EDO: Did you see this fucking BONNAROO POSTER? We're in fucking 14pt, man!
TONY THE AGENT: Looks... the same as other bands.

KEVIN EDO: NO, Springsteen, Phish, and fucking NIN are 14.25pt, but we're down in 14pt with the God damned STEERAGE! We're the same damned font as God damned GOMEZ, Tony!

A pause.

TONY THE AGENT: You can eyeball a .25pt font difference?
KEVIN EDO: I took a typography class in Junior College!!!
