Thanks for leaving my band out of 11/1/03.
Comment Poster's Reaction: Negative.
uh, look again Mr. Lo. I think you'll be quite surprised.
Just because I'm the last entry on your list doesn't mean you get to blame this on me.
Pretty crazy to look back and see when you went to, say, a five-day run of shows. What is like whoa
thats a lot of concerts. i like rock n roll concerts. will you come to my concert tomorrow?
there's a couple where I did 3 in one night too...those were the good ol' days. Stv, it was you...you turned me against the list. Pete, I might come to your show...if there's some trayzure in it for me.
