jonny, chicago 02/12/04
artist: all fuckers and pop punkers
Review: i don't really give a flying fuck. i am geting old to the point of "punk." now its just all about the music to me. i am 21 i dont give a shit about "sell outs" and "posers" fuck! sorry for the swearing, but honestly i like listning to these bands, hell i have listened to mxpx since i was 13 and i have loved them since. this music is what has strengthened my life and brought me to who i am today. thanks you! pop punk will live in my heart for ever. i dont listen to critics or fucks telling me the band has the same sound as a pop chick on trl. i dont care! play your music like you do and i will listen like i have. thats for all the years pop punk and all the years we still have.


Tony Balogna, Los Angeles 02/12/04

Review: I think Tony Bonyata is retarded, and when I say, "retarded" I mean down syndrome.

artist: sugarcult
Review: sugarcult r ace live i saw them support gc, i wud have lovd to seen all three acts play together in one place!!airins a god, i lv bass!


Emma, England 02/12/04
artist: Blink 182
Review: This article is crap because Blink182 are really good and there lyrics are about stuff that has happened to them. I have seen them live and there very good!!! I think that you should't say all of that cuz it's just your opinion!
And in my opinion this article is shit!

Review: it's the best punk group forever


Beverly Sea, Corona 02/12/04
artist: Blood Brothers
Review: Well I just recently saw the Blood Brothers and they really put up a show. It was well worth the money. As to Cursive I can't really say much but I'm sure there just as good I've been meaning to spark a incounter with them but there never down in Califorina.Sooo I can't say much which really bothers me they have more fans in Califorina then any other state I have been fortunate to set foot in. And you'd figure they would pay attention to where there real fans are. They have such die hard fans here that it hurts them to even speak of them.
So Cursive should pull there head out of there ass and come down here to play befor gimps like Avril listeners encounter there music from some internet .com thing and by the time they actually decide to come down here. None of there real fans will be able to see them because they would hane sold out with a poor bitch of a audiance.
Sincerly the girl from the Zine.


Joe Birch, St. Petersburg FL 02/12/04
artist: Mxpx
Review: I saw mxpx the first time in 1996 at the state theatre in ST. Pete Fl with Ninety Pound Wuss and Value pack ever since I have been hooked on their music. They keep getting better with their new material I am looking forward to the show at Jannus Landing this Fri Feb 13th it's going to rock.

KBaxterson, Tbay 02/12/04
artist: mxpx

Jim, Chicago, IL 02/11/04
artist: Statistics / Conor Oberst / The Omaha "BOY BAND SCENE"
Review: Is anyone else getting sick of the whole Omaha, Nebraska "BOY BAND SCENE" thats been going down as of late. I mean Bright Eyes, Cursive, Desaparecidos, Statistics, Conor Oberst etc. etc. etc. They all sound exactly the same in one way or another. They all cry just like the backstreet boys and n'sync. But at least that group of boy bands can actually sing on key. Someone please kill the whiny bitches and lets get back to what rock and roll is all about. Whatever happened to originality? These shit bands are the reason rock is dying. If they have nothing innovative to bring to the table then please stay in your basements.

artist: Incubus
Review: Incubus rocked the hell out of Lollapalooza 2003 in Detroit!!! They amaze me, the one and only band I can listen to every song on every cd and LOVE every minute of it!!! And Brandon Boyd is soooo yummy!!!! Its kind of a tie though because MATTHEW GOOD rocked soooo much at the Drink in April!!!! I met him WA HOOOO!


Bud, Columbus Ohio 02/09/04
artist: Chris Isaak
Review: First time I ever heard or saw Chris Isaak was last night on WOSU (PBS). What a voice; what a performer and I'm not even a country fan...... Feels good to hear and hopes he does some Ray Orbison re-plays although he can easily stand on his own.


Andrew S. Anthony, Las Vegas, Nevada 02/09/04
artist: Static-X
City & State: Review: Static-X is the best band and music in the entire world!

Review: Karen, your review makes me want to see this band live!! You've whetted my appetite.


Breana 02/08/04
artist: Lifehouse
Review: What the heck is wrong with you guys? Do you not even read the lyrics? "Sound's all the same"? Well that just proves what dumb people you are. Can't you understand that it is the lyrics that are what's important? Even one little concert that ran out of energy isn't going to send them "falling". I hope that someday you people that believe Lifehouse is no longer good will realize your mistake and if you don't- well may you never burden the rest of the world with your despicable foolishness. It is people like you all that don't understand the real meaning of life and make life so hard. It is the people that ruin the world.


Michael, Chicago 02/07/04
Review: Musicurmudgeon your writing is refreshing in a landscape littered with mediocrity and safeness. I'm a devoted reader. May your pen and wit remain sharp.

Judith Pruess-Mellow 02/05/04
artist: Lee Jimmie Skinner
Review: Does anyone remember Haggard's Lead guitar and organizer of the Strangers, Lee Jimmie Skinner Mellow? He retired from country music in 1993, but he is not dead. Some think he is, since the Jimmie Skinner born in 1909 died in 1979. Lee Jimmie is retired and alive in Grass Valley. I am married to him.

virginia, Lake forest CA 02/05/04
artist: Arroyo
Review: I love Bowies music, when i first herd his song i fell in love with it. the next day i told my friends about the music, and how its great. they thought i was crazy because the only listen to rap and rmb its good and all but now one can relate to Bowies art.


Connie harris, leeds, uk 02/05/04
artist: Super Bowl haltime
Review: I agree with you Musicurmugeon - why do americans get so freaked out over a boob while they raise their hands in celebration over all the deaths in Iraq. I'm sorry but I'll never understand your country. You offer the best the world has to offer and certainly the worst.


Larry, So CA 02/05/04
artist: John Rzeznik
Review: joh plays from his heart. Saw him in Vegas Sep 0,2002 and it was the best concert Ihave ever seen. He connected with the crowd totally and was great after hearing a screaching 3rd eye blind before the Goo's came on stage. Awesome band


Lee, canada 02/05/04
Review: SOAD: Steal this album
One of the best discs Ive ever heard, whoever wrote this review is a fucking crackhead and doesnt know shit about good music.

alan, leeds 02/04/04
artist: blink 182
Review: i think bottom line is you dont like blink 182 which is fair enough, but to make a page about it....well if u ask me thats sad. maybe they had a one off night but it hasnt done them bad really to say there the biggest punk/rock band in the world


Liz G, Brookfield WI 02/03/04
artist: Counting Crows
Review: I am a major Counting Crows fan so when i heard they were coming to town i was estatic. I was upset to find that they were only opening for John Mayer. they haven't played in Wisconsin in forever, they've been around for a very long time and they deserve to be the main performance. People only knew the songs of john mayer that were played on the radio. but i didn't mind as long as i got to see them. Needless to say i was in complete awe as i stood and swayed to adam's esquistite vocals. And when he sang Long december i was left in tears. After their performance we watched about 20 minutes of john mayer, then left in disgust. We were definately not impressed, he couldn't even compare to the energy and pure talent of the Counting Crows. To me it was an amazing show, before john mayer came out.


Rahnishia, Fairview, Kansas 02/03/04
artist: John Mayer
Review: Every since late one night and i couldn't find anything on t.v. I stumbled upon a John Mayer preview for his Any Give Thursday DVD. It was magic. Magnificent. It opened my eyes. John Mayer is an amazing performer, musician, and song writer. Everything I want to be. I've seen him live and believe me, he makes sure you're apart of the show. He talks to the crowd as if we're all his good friends. We're a sea of voices sining along literally. I'm 13 years old and I have an idol....John Mayer. What more can I say.
Rahnishia Day

Peter, UK 02/03/04
artist: Misfits
Review: Jerry Only Rocks no-one could keep the Misfits alive for as long as he did there are a lot of people on the net who critisise Jerry for keeping the misfits alive saying that all he wants is money, but it never seems like that Jerry is a Laugh and it would be brill to meet him again but it's unfortuante i can't make it to london theis month to see him PEACE


Lisa, Laguna, NM 02/03/04
artist: Static-x
Review: Static-X is Fucking Awesome!! Wayne and TRipp you guys are so hot! CAn't wait to see you in Albuquerque again!


Jon, Virginia 02/03/04
Review: I dont know what the fuck you are talking about. Blink 182 kicks ass in live concerts. And maybe if you take the time to pay attention in the concert, you can understand whats going on. The mosh pits are perfect and the show at the MCI center in DC kicked major ass. You do not give Blink the credit they deserve.


Dana Richardson, LA California 02/02/04
artist: David Bowie
Review: Excellent concert by Bowie last night at the Shrine! He's still great. Friends and I wondering if anyone knows who the man in the yellow shirt and the white cowboy hat with front row center seat was. He and the lady with him in the red dress were quite entertaining as well and were escorted out while waving as the concert ended.


??? 02/02/04
Review: Yes maybe they do suck live but hey there making money better then you are if ur even making money. Next time u get ur life savings up to the cost of a concert ticket and go see the best band in the world preform for u i hope u get the hell kicked out of u cuz if ur gonna diss blink then u can go straight to hell.


??? 02/02/04
Review: yup, you're a fuckin reatard. Blink 182 is a better band than you would expect to be talked about on a shitbox website like yours, do shut the fuck up, and go fingerbang yourself..... reatarded monkeys? Aren't you creative,

artist: Merle Haggard
Review: Here are my thoughts,this was one of the best interviews that I have ever read on his. Merle Is a wonderful person a great American and very wise.I love his type of honesty, and how he see's things.he is the best Damn musician/song writer/intertainer in the world. Thanks Hag

Benji, Ottawa 02/01/04
artist: Singer/Misguided Minds
Review: I think what you just said there was a bunch of pathetic none sense. Blink have their ups and down and even admitted it on their Urethra Chornicles 2 dvd. So I think that your totaly wrong saying blink 182 sounds bad live. Cause they can actully sound pretty fawking rad some times anyways that my opinion.
