1. Lots of good artists today, but I agree

They are too emo-ish for me.

2. I hate to say this, but I thought the same thing

I'm open to everyone's music, but they were pretty bad.

3. Yeah, they sound dumbed down for radio

They've even done it with Regina Spektor - her song "Better" is a beautiful power pop song, but on the radio recut single, they stripped the song of the rock.

4. Hey here comes Fallout Boy, and they're trying to challenge for the SUCKINESS title....

At least they can (sort of) play their instruments, unlike the other losers, but whoever told this dweeb he could sing deserves to be fired from whichever of the 4 multinational corporations puts their albums out.

5. I actually kinda like them, but that performance was really bad.

The sound for most of the New York show that I saw was really bad too.

6. I'm a pop fan, but...

I just can't get myself to enjoy them. What was that new band you mentioned lately to try out?

7. Never mind - found it

Against Me! does sound good - but all the songs on their MySpace won't play.

8. I've only listened to Taking Back Sunday in passing, I have friends who dig them

They don't immediately bring out feelings of hatred in me, haha. But their performance today blew.

9. I don't think 2 Million people are watching that or any other part of LiveEarth much less 2 Billion

This has been so poorly promoted and produced, expect an avalanche of ratings dissapointments.
