"The band that shall not be named"

[Phantom-mario]

great band!

[Matthew]

"The band that shall not be named" is currently my favorite band

[angelbear425]

I saw "The band that shall not be named" twice before this summer. Once when they were on Ozzfest back in 2002 and I just heard them and didn't realize it. The other time was last summer in Camden and I didn't think they were that great because the sound in the place sucked. Needless to say when i found out SP was playing with them I was less than enthused. Seeing them in Poughkeepsie I could care less, but was dancing around by the end. Weedsport was a horrible experience in itself haha, but I did get to meet the band when they were done with their set. Atlantic City I again didn't care if I saw them or not. Buffalo I was actually rocking out and had a fabu time.

Umm.. after seeing them 4 times in a week I was completely hooked and liked them much more than I thought I did. I generally hung towards the back by the time "The band that shall not be named" went on so I was never in the front. So last month I went to see "The band that shall not be named" in Johnson City, NY, about 10 min outside Binghamton. I was FINALLY in the front and the place was super small. It was FANTASTIC!! I honestly had such an amazing time, got some amazing pics, was given Dale's guitar pic by their manager (who's name escapes me at the moment), and then was able to hang out and talk to Dale and Shaun at the end of the night. UNBELIEVABLE!!

Now every time they are close to me I harrass Matt to go. I'm actually still trying to talk him into going when they are in Reading, Asbury Park, or NYC next month.

New video for their latest single "Breakdown"

[nicolenice]

I saw this video the first day it came out and I love "The band that shall not be named" and Shauns hair looks awesome here but I just not into this video, I was anticipating this video for weeks and weeks and its just not my cup of tea. But it is still a brilliant song

[Sheila]

I know what you mean... I was expecting more. I like the idea.. but something was missing

Honestly.... I wanted to see more Troy

[nicolenice]

^^^^^^ More of everyone would have been nice and they built up the suspense to this video like crazy style and its a rubik's cube i get its of their head but there was that flare missing

[SweetPandemonium]

I thought the video was ok. I like the concept of it. But all the spinning kind of made me nauseous

Oh, and in case anyone hasn't heard "The band that shall not be named" will be on tour with Nickelback and Saving Abel in Feb. I don't like either band really but I guess I will still go if they come around me lol.

[nicolenice]

[Pwneress]

if they come to CA, any CA people willing to get together and enjoy?!?!

[SweetPandemonium]

[Sheila]

strange combination....but if they come to Montreal, I shall be there

[nicolenice]

I is a stange combo it is a great combo. I miss "The band that shall not be named" and I have only seen Nickelback once but I just went to the wrong people so it was the worst show ever. But Me if me and Nikki can make this one it will be awesome.

[solacematt]

I don't know, I thought this was their best video since "Fine Again." I guess you have to really look at the video for "Breakdown," and kind of pick at it to figure it out.
Them going out on tour with Nickelback though seems uhm, f*ck up. I like Nickelback but, one, Nickelback is an insanely good band live that makes everyone look amature (SP could open though and possibly do ok). Also, Shaun has voiced A LOT how much he hates Nickelback and thinks they suck. Serge can vouche for that one too. So, I don't see why they would do the tour other than the fact that it's playing in arenas to a lot of people.

I need a new Finding Beauty In Negative Spaces album. Mines scratched like there is no tomorrow. Shaun is such a great singer. ^^ Its weird how Nickelback and "The band that shall not be named" are going on tour together but oh well. =/

[SweetPandemonium]

Yeah, and I think it's bogus how the tickets are $72 a piece! lame.

[Cassandra]

WHAT?!!

[ampskeeter22]

^Yeah $75 plus the $10 service charge they tack on. I really planned on seeing them on this tour but is gonna be an easy $100 i don't have, but if i don't buy a ticket i think i'm gonna get the SP hoodie.

[SweetPandemonium]

Yeah, it's ridiculous. I was really hoping to see them too. But there is just no way I can afford that

[Cassandra]

I hate being broke.
