one of the best shows I saw was OLP in a small club. Raine was like an early Eddie Vedder jumping off balconies.
RIP OLP
i saw them in a small club on the spiritual machines tour. They were excellent

I can't find any discussion about the townhall on Sirius. Did that get captured somewhere?

You can make a decent OLP album if you take the best songs off the last 4

I haven't listened to OLP in a long time. I might load them back on the ipod after lightning bolt starts to recede.
The wonderful future is a great song.

There's a couple. Paper Moon is tremendous. Dreamland is corny as shit lyrically, but I love the music and the delivery.

Paper Moon is worth checking out if you have 4 minutes.

I wish I had the prescription to the drugs you're taking......what a trip.
Pretty trippy that one would mistake a sappy, sentimental ballad whose hook prominently features the phrase "Want you to know" for another sappy, sentimental ballad whose hook prominently features the phrase "Want you to know."

To me this is like hearing you say "I witnessed a newborn being violently torn to bloody shreds by hungry wolves immediately after exiting the womb".

That Hoobastank song is quite nice. But far more calculated than Sirens.
