    • @wokeupinapanic
      @wokeupinapanic 4 года назад +1

      Jabez Gill - Nate only joined after the reunion for LP2, there was no bass recorded on the first EP, only on LP1, and they’ve only ever played with a bassist while touring for LP2 and LP3, which were released within the last 3 years. LP1 released in 1999, and Mike played minimalist bass on it.
      I’ve talked to Mike about this before. I’m a huge AF nerd. You’re wrong about a lot of what you just said.
      Their current incarnation also has another member that plays marimba and auxiliary instruments. That doesn’t mean that they’ve ALWAYS had a marimba player. Hence why I said “didn’t” and not “doesn’t”
      Maybe learn from this interaction to make sure you know wtf you’re talking about before you try and act all high and mighty in a RUclips comments section 😂

    • @wokeupinapanic
      @wokeupinapanic 4 года назад +1

      Jabez Gill -
      "We recorded that album the last weekend two out of three of us were in school," Mike will tell Washed Up Emo. "[We thought] let's just finish these songs in the studio and put out the record." The band only have nine tracks and not all of them are finished when they enter Private Studio in Urbana, IL with producer Brendan Gamble. *"We didn't have a bass player, so we doubled the guitars and that gave it a different sound I guess.* I finished writing some sort of lyrics and melodies to the songs and just screeched them out.”

    I found your other version of this song years ago, and thought “wow, I didn’t know anyone who wasn’t into, you know, American Football, would love American Football like this.” Then I kind of forgot about you for a long time - you know how it is, the sea of content, and I grew up in a smaller world, so I’m often quite adrift.
    Then I saw you on IronMouse’s stream, and I was like - wait! I know this person! They’re amazing, I should look back in on what they’ve been up to.
    It’s good to see you’re still creating, and still improving.
    It’s a weird moment for me, when three of my more, let’s call them “niche” tastes, intersected. Going to be watching a lot of your videos today I think...
    Keep it up! We love it... or, at least I know I do.

    You are so talented. Have you thought of doing a song by Kansas such as Carry on or Icarus?

    I'm just going to go ahead and say it. You are way too talented and your channel is so fuckin underrated.
    So good.
    However, Sorry bro but the vocals here just weren't awful enough to be an American Football cover.
