Popularity rank 1 #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...

October 6, 2005

KEVIN EDO: Don't take that the wrong way, Gordon, I just--
GORDON CRANWICK: Excuse me?! I can't believe-- I want that in writing, Kevin.

KEVIN EDO: Come on, look--
GORDON CRANWICK: No, here: "I, Kevin Edo, state that Gordon Cranwick's songwriting lacks heart." Sign it!

KEVIN EDO: (sigh) I'm not signing this, Gordon, when, when....

KEVIN EDO: You know, it's not so much "heart" as it is "emotion."
GORDON CRANWICK: Make whatever changes you like! I'll initial them!

Popularity rank 3 #20. Never took guitar lessons

April 26, 2005

JOHN: You ever take guitar lessons?
DAN: Nah, dude. Well... I was going to once....

JOHN: Yeah?
DAN: Yeah, but the night before I was up really late and this show about Keith Richards was on.

DAN: He talked about how rock is just in you, or it isn't. And you can't force it, it's just nature... it really make me think....

DAN: Anyway, I slept through the lesson and my mom said she wouldn't pay for any more.
JOHN: Man, your mom is a Grade A jerk, dude.
