I didn't realise that was the same Matt Squire! Good for him that he
is getting that sort of exposure; shame it has to be with a band like
Panic! at the Disco!
TJ, you are so right about radio standards. I think bands like Panic!
typify the notion that catchy tunes sell. But once you delve deeper
you realise how shallow the music is and why it will never live long
in one's memory; unlike Chamberlain of course ;)
Excellent choice in seeking out Descendents and All records again. It
feels comforting to return to records of old and realise they're still
cool to listen to!
