[Clairy]

yeahh oops.

boys got taste though.

[ianthefox]

I remember getting pissed off at how ridulously shit he sounded. But that was aaaaaggggessss ago. I think Hanley recommended him to me...

[nelly]

haha BRYCE.

[Daphne]

I DID NOT ABUSE THE ROCKET SUMMER, GAV.

[Panda]

When he played last, myself and Gav were talking to him, and apologising on behalf of the Planes Mistaken for Stars fans who were throwing stuff at him.

Also, the dude is ridiculously cool. And his music is class.

[xGavx]

You well did, Brian. You dick.

[Daphne]

How did you even know what I looked like. This was before I became world famous

[Panda]

He remembered everyones face, so he could beat down every one of you over the course of his life.

[Daphne]

well then, he best go after the drummer from trackline and not me.

[Zachary]

BRATPACK, whopper stuff, loved the set in TBMC with The Ataris, class class class

[Reuben]

New song up: http://www.myspace.com/therocketsummer

Very fun and catchy.. I'm into it.

[Sam]

That's been around for a while, hasn't it? Good song though.

And that's the new iTunes EP if anyone wants it. It's in m4a.

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

i like them.

anyone else??

yes

[Dee]

I wasn't into them when they played here ages ago!!

[xGavx]

HIM!

[Daphne]

I DID NOT ABUSE THE ROCKET SUMMER, GAV.

[xGavx]

I'll fucking fight you.

[Daphne]

Ill beat you as bad as I abused the rocket summer

[xCiaránx]

I've been listening to the iTunes EP a lot recently. I'm stoked for the new album. So Much Love is such a good tune.

[Zachary]

The Rocket Summer is class. Brat Pack is whopper.

[Sam]

I've been listening to the iTunes EP a lot recently. I'm stoked for the new album. So Much Love is such a good tune.

Can't stop listening to the whole EP. So fucking good. Those three new tunes and the cover are better than the whole old album.

[xCiaránx]

Which one?

[Sam]

The most recent older one. Lots of things are better than Calendar Days.

[xCiaránx]

Ha, true. I don't know, Hello, Good Friend is a fucking incredible record. I'll judge when I've listened to the full length of the new full length a few times.

[xCiaránx]

OMFG FULL ALBUM STREAM @ MYSPACE (http://www.myspace.com/therocketsummer)!!1

[Sam]

FUCK YES. KNEW I SHOULD HAVE COME STRAIGHT HOME LAST NIGHT.

[ianthefox]

Meh.

[Sam]

I think this is pretty class after one listen. I didn't think all the tracks from the EP would be on this too though. It's kinda a pity to have already heard So, In This Hour outside the context of the album.

[xCiaránx]

That was always going to be the case, you joker.

[Sam]

Someone definitely should have told me that. Who puts the last track of their album on a sampler EP?!

[xCiaránx]

The Rocket Summer, it seems.

[xCiaránx]

I just got it now.
That's about 3 hours of clicking right there.

[Sam]

You've no idea what I went through...

Hahah.

For any other CD, I probably would have given up on that link.

[Sam]

Hmm. I might be up for this.

[ralphatron]

I'd like to go, dunno if I can though.

[ianthefox]

No thanks.

[Panda]

I'd be interested Ciarán, but my contract in work ends on the 6th of Feb.
I'd be up for thee 7th or 9th.

[xGlennx]

If there's only a few of you you can go to the Cardiff show and stay here.

[Emmie!]

I'd like to go, dunno if I can though.

[Sam]

I'm so so excited for this.

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

Ugh school.

Somebody make him come over here.

[xGavx]

Or somebody invent a time machine.

[xCiaránx]

I'm so so excited for this.

[Gajb]

Had a chance to see this lad in a venue called The Social in Florida during the summer but I didn't go.

[ralphatron]

Bad move.

[Gajb]

That weekend in the city:

The Rocket Summer headline gig
Motion City Soundtrack headline gig
Warped Tour

I wanna fucking move over there.

Pity he's not playing here now.

[xGavx]

He said he'd come back some day. I'm still waiting.

[Panda]

We should have invented a time machine, Gav, then got Demented to do the show.

[charizard]

These guys supported The Ataris a few years back, they were okay I thaught, their bassist couldnt play for some reason though, it was wired.

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

This guy supported The Ataris a few years back, he was okay I thaught, his bassist couldnt play for some reason though, it was wired.
Fixed

[xGavx]

You didn't fix it much...

It was the drummer that wouldn't play anyway. He did like two songs and went off.

[xGlennx]

I bought my ticket for this on Friday.

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

You didn't fix it much...

It was the drummer that wouldn't play anyway. He did like two songs and went off.
I thaught I did.

[charizard]

You didn't fix it much...

It was the drummer that wouldn't play anyway. He did like two songs and went off.

Looking back now, that gig kinda sucked.

[Reuben]

I was at that but I wasn't familiar with The Rocket Summer at all then, or Planes Mistaken For Stars, who sounded nothing like the songs I have now, because if they did I would have liked them..and I hated them. Anyway, well looking forward to the Rocket Summer next month!

[xGlennx]

It's in February.

[Sam]

Jesus Reuben... I called Reuben up a while ago and asked him if he wanted Ciarán to get him a ticket to the Cardiff show. He said yes. The next day, I mentioned the Rocket Summer, and he was like "Oh, so are we gonna go to that?!"

[xCiaránx]

He probably actually has plans and I've bought a ticket for nothing.

[Sam]

I just told him I was booking flights. Who will we give his ticket to when he doesn't show up?

Glenn, Evie wants to know if she can crash at yours...

[Black Richie]

Don't let her Glenn... She's Jewish!

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

NO I DON'T.

[ianthefox]

What's wrong with Glenn, Evie?

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

What's wrong with Sam, Evie?
Many, many things.

[xGlennx]

Glenn, Evie wants to know if she can crash at yours...
Sure...
NO I DON'T.
Fair enough.

[xGavx]

Yo, Glenn. Can I take Evie's place at yours? I'm twice as Jewish. And ten times as easy.

[xGlennx]

Definitely.

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

Hahaha.

I hate everyone especially Sam.

[ralphatron]

Yo, Glenn. Can I take Evie's place at yours? I'm twice as Jewish. And ten times as easy.

Hahaha.

[Sam]

I just checked in online. See you tomorrow, Glenn.

[ralphatron]

Take my camera to take vids.

[Sam]

Bring it to my house before half 8 tomorrow.

[ralphatron]

Posting from the airport.

[xGlennx]

If Between The Trees have any merch can you pick up everything for me?

[xGavx]

Say what?

[xGlennx]

inside joke lolz

[Sam]

This band and the last two days ruled.

[Black Richie]

This band and the last two days ruled.

Tuthpaste!

[Reuben]

The two supporting bands made me start to feel a little old for pop punk but I felt okay by the end of the night. Phew.

[Black Richie]

Between the trees were amazing. Pity they didn't have any merch though.

[xCiaránx]

The Rocket Summer set was so good. Considering the fact that he'd cancelled the two previous shows, Bryce was bang on form.

[eeeeehhhhhh]

http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e136/a_m_y_156/Spiderpig__spiderpiiiig____by_felfl.jpg

Between the Trees really want people to buy their merch. The other support band were just Hellogoodbye minues good lyrics and Saul. Rocket Summer were amazing.

[Sam]

Haha, g'wan Percy.

[xGavx]

Was the Secret Handshake the other support band? If you seriously just compared him to Hellogoodbye, I'm going to cut your head off.

[eeeeehhhhhh]

He just wants a bitta merch like.

[eeeeehhhhhh]

Was the Secret Handshake the other support band? If you seriously just compared him to Hellogoodbye, I'm going to cut your head off.

he sounded like hellogoodbye. in fairness. on one song i could fit all of your love in exactly.

[xGlennx]

The Secret Handshake was the worst thing ever.

[xGavx]

Dude's straight up legit and original. He's way better than The Rocket Summer and Between The Trees anyway.

[Sam]

Summer of '98 is still incredible. Even if the dude had never heard Fall Out Boy.

[xGlennx]

He looked like he listens to Bury Your Dead or something. When the soundguy accidentally played a Fall Out Boy song during his set he was like "Dude what the fuck? You turned on the music." and then started saying things like he didn't know if he should carry on playing or not. And then said "What was that, like Say Anything or something?" And he didn't say thanks when some dude gave him a Kit Kat.

[xGavx]

Summer of '98 is still incredible. Even if the dude had never heard Fall Out Boy.
I mosh daily to that song in my room.

[Sam]

He changes the melody live. Learning that nearly killed me.

You can't seriously think he's better than the Rocket Summer though...

[xGlennx]

The Rocket Summer are my new favourite band.

[xGavx]

I haven't listened to The Rocket Summer in years. I like to listen to The Secret Handshake's One Full Year CD sometimes. And he's sponsored by Johnny Cupcakes. The Rocket Summer's probably sponsored by some company that makes rosary beads.

[Sam]

Glenn was moshing hard at the show. When the confetti cannons went off, so did he.

[eeeeehhhhhh]

Glenn was moshing hard at the show. When the confetti cannons went off, so did he.

He sure did. I forgot about those confetti cannons. Wowzers.

[xGavx]

I would have gotten inside one and been thrown across the venue.

[Sam]

If you haven't listened to the newest Rocket Summer album Gav, your life is incomplete. It's about one million times better than One Full Year. It has more than one class song on it like.

[xGavx]

I don't think I ever got his last CD. I'll check it out now.

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

It's like one million times better than most things ever.

[xMac Kellx]

Like, totally.

[xGavx]

There's no way it's better than his first full length. You can't beat those classics.

This sounds alright though. I hope he doesn't say Jesus any time soon.

[Sam]

It's class. And pretty much Jesus free, as far as I remember. Unlike his first one.

[xCiaránx]

The second album's clearly the best thing he's done. And everything he's done is better than The Secret Handshake. By miles.

[xGavx]

Calendar Days would be the best album ever if it wasn't for that.

I take back what I said about The Secret Handshake being better than The Rocket Summer. He still rules though.

[Sam]

Good man. We're in complete agreement.

Except the third CD is definitely his best.

[Sean-Lugsy]

3 years late getting into this.

I only have Do You Feel. What else should I be getting?

[Sam]

Hello, Good Friend. And then everything else he's ever done.

[Sean-Lugsy]

Haha. Ok. I hate starting to like all these bands so close to seeing them play.

[Sean-Lugsy]

I can't find Hello, Good Friend anywhere. Any chance of upping it?

[eeeeehhhhhh]

Just listen to Between the Trees instead.

[Sam]

Look on the bright side, we'll probably miss them from tiredness or something. Or if Between the Trees are playing at the same time or something.

Anyway, http://rapidshare.com/files/29876087/Hello_Good_Friend__2005_.rar. The password's www.alternative2punk.com, let me know if it doesn't work.

[ianthefox]

I think this dude is terrible.

[Black Richie]

He looks like a girl. An attractive girl at that.

[Sam]

I think this dude is terrible.

Leave this thread and never return.

[xCiaránx]

For real, Fox. Get the fuck.

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

Leave this thread and never return.

For real, Fox. Get the fuck.

[GOC]

Heard about these in San D. Late pass I know but I can't believe how good they are...or he is...whatever.

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

...

Seriously, only now?

[GOC]

I know. I'm pretty sure I'm still allowed to like it.

[KevArchitecture]

Did this dude support the ataris like 3/4 years ago?

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

Yeah

[KevArchitecture]

knew i heard the name somewhere before.

[Fry]

yeah but the bass amp wasn't working or something, loads of technical difficulties, so he just played on his own

it was pretty funny, felt so bad for him!

[KevArchitecture]

Yeah, i remember know, some metal band were supporting aswell, if i remember right they were shit.

[Reuben]

Planes Mistaken For Stars, they're not a metal band really but yeah, they weren't particularly good.

[xGavx]

yeah but the bass amp wasn't working or something, loads of technical difficulties, so he just played on his own

it was pretty funny, felt so bad for him!
The drummer just stopped playing after two songs and left the stage for some reason, making it go from a two piece to a one piece. Brian from Emily made fun of him.

[ianthefox]

Worst thread.

[Sean-Lugsy]

Hahaha. Best thread. Especially that thing about Brian. Where's he gone, actually?

[xCiaránx]

It has been a while since somebody slagged Blast or Man Utd did anything spectacular.

[Sean-Lugsy]

Fuck!

[xCiaránx]

That was in jest, I swear. Wow, Gav started this thread. Gav hasn't heard a Rocket Summer album since Calendar Days.

[Sean-Lugsy]

Hopefully he'll be back in a fit of rage defending that HSR flyer...

Did I not read in this thread Gav saying he hates TRS? Might have been someone else.

[xCiaránx]

is real good.

[Sean-Lugsy]

Nought Five. He could have hated the new album or something.

[xCiaránx]

I haven't listened to The Rocket Summer in years.

[Sean-Lugsy]

Here, I dunno, he likes Underoath, as far as I'm concerned, the lad's fucking crazy. Who knows what he really thinks...

[xCiaránx]

He actually mentions listening to the new album there after my quote, but all that really matters is that crucial second album.

[xGavx]

I'm so famous in this thread. I definitely got the second CD around the time it came out. I was slow with everything after that.

They're Only Chasing Safety is such a good album.

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

Nought Five. He could have hated the new album or something. Impossible. That album is like the new Batman.

[xrobbedgex]

Dark and hopeless, with stunning set pieces and acted really well by all involved?

Yeah. I doubt very much it's like the The Dark Knight at all.

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

Hahah, in an impossible not to like way.

[Enderrr]

I wouldnt call the new batman hopeless now.

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

I wouldnt call the new batman hopeless now.

:no: all of you are wrong!!

[xrobbedgex]

I wouldnt call the new batman hopeless now.

Yeah, because it ends on such a positive upbeat note...

[John]

Yeah, because it ends on such a positive upbeat note...

You keep it to the Dark Knight thread or Ill fucking end you

[Enderrr]

Yeah, because it ends on such a positive upbeat note...

I wont say anything because it will be hard to talk about without spoilers, but saying its hopeless is definitely wrong.

[xrobbedgex]

I wont say anything because it will be hard to talk about without spoilers, but saying its hopeless is definitely wrong.

DON'T TELL ME WHAT I DO AND DON'T KNOW.

[goo]

I listened to one song by these and hated it. I suppose Robbedge is either too cool or too scary for Ciaran to give out to about spoiling films EHHH?

[xGavx]

Or he just hasn't seen it yet.

[xrobbedgex]

He just hasn't seen it yet. And I've hardly spoiled the film.

[xCiaránx]

I listened to one song by these and hated it. I suppose Robbedge is either too cool or too scary for Ciaran to give out to about spoiling films EHHH?
You clown. The title of this thread doesn't have White Text Spoilers! in it.

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

Haha. Put it in before any more movies are ruined!!

[xCiaránx]

People will think they're not allowed to quote lyrics from the latest Rocket Summer album or something.

[GOC]

BRUCE WILLIS IS A GHOST

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

MUFASA DIES

[GOC]

DARTH VADER IS LUKES FATHER

[Sean-Lugsy]

It would have been funny if any of those posts were shit like, yer man in The Mist kills his kid, or Wall-E dies at the end.

[ianthefox]

I'm going to fucking end you.

[Emmie!]

Wall-E dies at the end.

WHAT?!
Sean you're such a dickhead.
I'm going to fucking end you.
:yes:

[Aidan]

Does Wall-E die??

[ianthefox]

SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT WALL-E

[xGavx]

Wall-E will live forever.

[xrobbedgex]

In our hearts. RIP.

[xCiaránx]

Haha.

[xCiaránx]

New song from upcoming EP (http://media.altpress.com/media/yougottabelieve.mp3).

[iheartciaránparnell4eva]

This sounds like the Rocket Summer...

[ralphatron]

I like that.

[GOC]

It's grand. Nothing special.

[xCiaránx]

http://www.mediafire.com/?yfydgiymwy4

[ralphatron]

Thanks man.

It's kinda mediocre, Light is the best song. The bridge is real good.

[ralphatron]

Nah it's actually all class.

[xCiaránx]

Initially I think the other three songs sound better but I haven't listened to this enough yet.

[ralphatron]

What are the other three? Love that harmony in Hills and Valleys.

[Sam]

I assume Ciarán means the three that aren't You Gotta Believe, and I'd agree that that's the weakest song. Overall I'm not much into this.

[ralphatron]

Oh right yeah.

[Horndog]

Anyone got a working link for that? Can't find it anywhere

Nevermind.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=K8O285GS

[Sam]

http://www.shopaltpress.com/news/8375.htm

Sketch.

[xCiaránx]

Oh cool, it's in stereo.

[xCiaránx]

But yeah, fuck that.

[Sean-Lugsy]

Haha, horse shit.

[Sam]

Not even the title or the massive angel or anything, the whole thing just looks so bad.

[xCiaránx]

Everything about it is a thumbs down. And my excitement for the album was already diminished by that EP. Ho hum.

[Sam]

Webrip (http://www.mediafire.com/?zmffenm3njn)of the new album. Haven't listened to it yet.

[xCiaránx]

Hmmm.

[iPádraig]

This is just regurgitated nonsense. Such a disappointment.
