fucking sucks.... all the magazines and shit trying to make Ska all
popular and stuff... I am not talking about selling out, but I am
talking about how the only reason they want ska to be big is cause most
is still in the DIY spirit, and to them, that means $$$

Hrm, well actually...I think the Bosstones are one of the few bands that
could get really really huge and I wouldn't like them less for it.
They're talented as hell, and they deserve to be popular. Of course, the
main reason I think this is I've already seen them play small clubs, so I
wouldn't feel like I missed anything like I have with some other bands I
was unfortuantely enough to start listening to *after* they got popular
(R.E.M., namely). I think the only way they would lose me as a fan would
be if they got popular after putting out a really shitty album (like Nine
Inch Nails, for example). Just my thoughts...honestly, I'm just trying to
add to this newsgroup because the Bosstones kick ass. Later.

I think she may have her own show, now. I saw the dating game a while ago with
someone other than Jenny McCarthy...

That kind of bothers me.. I mean I would probably still listen to it if
everyone else did and I would still love going to shows and stuff
cause I like ska cause of how it makes me feel not how big it is
anyway.. but that bothers me the bosstones and suicide machines being
on MTV. Punk and ska scenes are kind of about expressing yourself and
going out and finding new bands and screwing the industry and doing it
yourself but how would you be doing any of that when some big time
corperation is spoon feeding you your music?

No, That's Singled Out, the dating game that jenny was the cohost of. Now
she has her own show on MTV, during which she sometimes hosts musical
acts, such as the bosstones. I think the show is on Tues. nights at
10:30, but I'm not sure.
Hey,
I agree, I think that the Bosstones have been around for so long and
they seem to work really hard and they kick ass and there is no reason
why they shouldn't get a lot of money back for it. I don't see them
being on MTV as selling out. Because they deserve it.. And I think it's
good they would finally be getting something back for being so
awesome.
ok talk to ya later,
Emily
HEY can anyone tell me if the bosstones were already on the jenny
mccarthy show? or are they gonna be on this wednesday or what? call me
crazy, i'm a girl and i LUV jenny. she's sexy as hell. it would be
interesting to see the btones on the show.......
Hey, did anybody else notice that this didn't use any punctuation? I
scoff at people who don't use punctuation. Scoff! Scoff! It's hard to
take someone seriously when they don't even know when it's appropriate to
use a period or comma. My guess is this guy is a big fan of TV and CD's,
since those are the only words (I guess you could call them words;
acronyms maybe?) that he capitalized. Maybe it's his mouth that has a
fat dick in it, or if not, it should, cuz that would shut him up
(although when you're typing, I don't see how not being able to talk will
keep him from driveling on the keyboard). Well, that and he's talking
out of his ass anyway. Maybe that's why there's no punctuation. Last I
knew, asses weren't very smart.

Its not that they go mainstream it's the fact that "selling out" means
they change their musical style to sell more albums....too many
examples to cite on that one.......
how can you even mention DK in that post, they never sold out
and to have them on Nash Bridges is hysterical.
Wondering if youv'e ever heard DK-

People care about a band they like if it becomes big because not of
sentimentality, but also when you put so much effort in purchasing,
searching and taking everything that comes with enjoying an independent
and/or a smaller band and when the spoon-fed masses who care more about
what's cutting edge rather than the actual music sinking their teeth into
the latest trend there is a sense of hopelessness and also a feeling of
loss.

Look if you don't care who likes the stuff you listen too, Why do you
bitch about them being on MTV? You totally contradicted yourself...
We should ALL realize that the Bosstones are finally getting the
success they deserve. Of course the people in videos lip-sync......
It's (almost) always been that way (with few exceptions- NIN, concert
footage, Soundgarden, some others....)
The fact remains that people need to learn how to think for
themselves, and listen to what THEY THEMSELVES like. DON'T let others
try to change your listening habits. I admit that eMpTyV trys to force
unwilling watchers to just listen to the "buzz" at the moment, but you
and all others need to decide for YERSELF what YOU like. C'mon!

Oh, GOD!! Another shitty fucking post from that whiner Emily. It is any
person's dream to be able to make a good living at what they love
doing. Do you think that Goldfinger is being spoonfed? You are
fuckin'bonkers.
darkivan
ugh! I was outta town. Anyway, my point was simple, the fucking
COMPANIES want to make the cash, and our so loved bands can fuck
themselves. That's pretty much what's happening.
