Plans of a Music Festival

[Drew_Kingsley]

I have no idea who Paramore is, so please tell me, if they were to headline a festival, about what size fest are we talking? Bonnaroo? Up North? Something in the middle?

I\'m breaking my silence to answer the question since no one here seems to know.

Paramore sold out 5000 seats at Oakdale (Chevy Theater) on Saturday and probably could have sold more.  They are a very good band in the alternative genre.   They\'ve sold well over 100,000 plus Cd\'s and probably many more.  They\'ve been on the the Rolling Stone/Billboard charts for a long time.  I can\'t see this happening since last night was the last show of a two year tour.  The band is taking a break and going into the studio to write their third CD.  But I do hope that the guys from the Breakfast could hook up with an act like this...it would def expand their fan base and expose young kids to some incredible music (The Breakfast)

To the person who wrote Paramore sucks and then said they\'ve never heard of them.... you\'re an asshole!!!   That\'s a stupid fucking response.  How can you judge a band you\'ve never heard of.  DUH!!

And last,  Freddie YOU\'RE A FUCKING ASSHOLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Oh....I\'ll PM you with an apology like you did to me.
( Slam me publically and apoligize privately = coward!)

Asshole?  Ok dude.  First off, it took me several seconds to assume that they were a shitty modern rock band.  Checked out a few songs and my assumptions were spot on per usual.


For a middle school music teacher (at least I assume you are still) you have piss poor taste in music and I\'m certainly glad I graduated Harborside before you came along.  At least Kendall Alderman tried to explain Coltrane to us.  I can see you bringing in your daughter\'s  X-Box 360 as a month long lesson plan, making them remember the control patterns to Paramore.... lame, I\'m with Wah on this one.

Everyone has different taste in music, so let\'s try to keep this thread positive & constructive for the band...

i told him when the promoters take a  listen, to try to book them the same day/stage has TLG, because when i went to the Ridgefield Playhouse, i said that was one of the best concerts i have ever been to.

^^The Ridgefield Playhouse show was insane!  If these two bands played on the same day, I\'d be a happy girl! :banboogy:

side question since we are on the fest topic:

what would be your choice for a festi name if the breakfast ever put one together where they were headlining?

[Kaliguitar]

Hey Overexjoesure......I\'m sorry for being a dick.  I came home last night with few drinks in me but that\'s no excuse...I was being the "asshole".  I was just trying to make the point that you shouldn\'t judge something without hearing it but instead I made a better point...DON\'T POST AFTER DRINKING.

I hope you accept my apology.

Let\'s hope a festival like this does go through. I would give the band huge exposure.

Oh and by the way....Kendall is an awesome teacher.  That\'s cool that he turned you on to Coltrane.  As far as Xbox lesson plans......that\'s actually not a bad idea.  It would teach the kids listening skills, timing, arrangement, and a lot of other musical elements if presented correctly but I think I\'ll stick to my 30 guitars, 2 electic guitars, a bass, a drumset and 25 keyboards that I have in my class.  Real instruments are way more fun.

Not that this is an original thought on my part, but it would obviously be BreakFest. End of discussion.

I think it should be called The Beer Jubilee

^sounds cool, decribes the fact that most of us fans are drunken idiots, and has an "inside joke, only know if you are in the b-fast fam type of vibe"

of course, there would have to be plenty of good beer available

Yeah, that\'s a good way to earn cooperation from the local police. You may as well set up a DUI check point, drug test and full cavity search at the main entrance.

[ds673488]
