Fawk! No i didn't know that ZB2000. I knew there was something good about Modest Mouse, but I couldn't put my finger on it exactly. and wham.. there you go.. Johnny Marr is the link. Way cool.

thanks man for the info. :D

[zombie boy 2000]

I've been a Modest Mouse fan for ages... I've been a Smiths fan for even longer.

When this news hit, I was riding high for weeks. I couldn't have wished for a better collaboration... (except maybe Marr and the Moz:D )

[Lsi9]

I wish I could say the new single is great but I 'm not catching it yet, Modest mouse takes time usually for me to get, I hope this is the case with the single

[danger boy]

some really good indie rock... with the lead singer from the Shins also lending his vocals on a few of the songs..

Sun, 04/15/07 8:00 PM Modest Mouse

if they were playing on saturday.. i could do it. damn it. :mad:

[phipiper10]

I'll be seeing them in Boston next month!

[zombie boy 2000]

Modest Mouse is really ifffy live. Sometimes they sound phenomenal and other times they sound like garbage. It really has to do with how much liquid courage Brock and the rest of the boys have chosen to taken in pre-show.

[Demiurge]

They also used to like to wank a lot rather than play the songs as people know them from their CD. I'm sure that changed when they got all contractural with Sony/Epic. :cool:

[zombie boy 2000]

I've seen Isaac Brock so shat-faced on stage that he could barely stand-up. This is a band that has never denied their addictions. It makes for great song-writing. Performances, on the other hand...

They have those in t-shirt form. :eek:

[zombie boy 2000]

It takes one to know one:D

[cstpeter]

I recently read this interview (which is pretty funny, btw) about Brock "cleaning up" and not partying as much...then a few days later he cuts himself up in South Dakota. Good stuff.

[danger boy]

don't rock stars know that to much partying kills a person's career? or at the very least makes you look like Keith Richards, who is legally dead. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! :p :D

[zombie boy 2000]

Well Brock has pretty much doubled in size since the band started.

[danger boy]

the days of muscian's staying up for days and doing drugs and drinking is so 1970's... if a bad truely wants to be successful now, they have to stay somewhat clean and give up some of that shite. seriously, how much would it suck if Modest Mouse made it big, then a year later blow their career because of to much partying. I doubt Johnny Marr is going to stick around if Brock doesn't clean himself up.

[zombie boy 2000]

I agree... but then again Brock is the exact opposite of Morrissey. So maybe there's a connection.

[danger boy]

but Marr is not the partying rock star.. i don't think he ever was that type of musician.

[zombie boy 2000]

You're right... Andy Rourke and Mike Joyce were. It does seem a bit destined for failure -- though not creatively.

The problem is that is how they were doing it for a decade before they ever made it big. Drugs and alcohol is what fuels a lot of these bands, for better or worse.

Ok, I called it.. way back in Jan.. that the new Modest Mouse CD would going to be awesome.. it's currently the number 1 album in the country.. ;) :D

just tooting my own horn.. since no one else will. :p

[danger boy]

it's time.. tomorrow I go see Modest Mouse live... should be a great concert. :)

[phipiper10]

Awesome, should be a blast! Enjoy!

[zombie boy 2000]

Let us know whether you got "Drunk Brock" or "Sober Brock". Both versions are fun in their own right.

[danger boy]

so i ordered a ticket from a guy on Ebay for the Modest Mouse concert which was tonight.. well the tix won't get here till tomorrow. a day AFTER the concert.

Now i'm trying to get my money back from the seller.. he was suppose to overnight the tix. i bought them on Monday. and it's now Wed night. They were only coming from Portland, OR to Spokane, WA which is only about 300 miles away. overnight should have been here in time. but no.. now I gotta see if he's willing to work with me and refund the tix. UGH!!! :mad::mad::mad:

[phipiper10]

That's bogus, sorry to hear that....

Well a fake Jamaican took every last dime with a scam
It was worth it just to learn some sleightof hand
Bad news comes don't you worry even when it lands
Good news will work its way to all them plans

[audiobliss]

Hahaha, I just discovered Modest Mouse a few months ago. A friend played Dashboard for me. Wow, what a crazy song. But I do like it! :p
