okay, I have to say my name says it all. I love Thursday, I really do. I just don't want to see them get all famous on me. One of the great things about Thursday is that they are not manufactured, that the writing (from the great man Geoff Rickley) comes from somewhere completely untouched upon by any other artists out there, and I could probably go on for years. Okay punkrockntuna, here you go:
They had their debut album titled "waiting" off of Eyeball Records, a little-known record label, mostly emo stuff. They are now signed to Victory Records, according to Geoff because they can get their stuff to reach more people through this new label. This is also why he says it wasn't "selling out" to have signed to a bigger record label. Anyway, their current cd is called "Full Collapse". Oh yeah, and their members are Geoff Rickley on vocals, Steve Pedulla on guitar, Tim Payne on bass, Tom Keeley on guitar, and Tucker Rule on drums. They come from New Jersey and have some incredible stuff. If you want to know more about "Understanding in a Car Crash" then check out what I posted about it earlier. Also, according to Geoff their song "How Long is the Night" is about his battle with insomnia caused by the incident which inspired "Understanding". I hope this gets you started in loving Thursday about as much as I do. If that's even possible... Anyway, Big News!!! Muchmusic now also plays the video for "Understanding in a Car Crash"!!!! I saw it today and thought, "how great for them"! and then I thought "how sad for us." :( To those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, well I'll just put it this way; I would pay millions of dollars to listen to Thursday intimately in a club, live. But on the other hand, if they get too famous and start playing packed arenas, I wouldn't pay nearly as much to see them. Another thing is that on this past tour Geoff, singing at a show every night, almost had a lung collapse. This is not good. Then if they get more of a following and have those fake fans come out to their shows and pay for Thursday merch and crap like that, and they get really big, then I will worry about his health as well as the rest of the bands'. I don't like to worry about my Geoffy. I am WIERD! boy, maybe I'm up too late or something. I haven't slept in the past two days, so if I'm rambling, I'm sorry. Geoffy? Where did that come from? Oh boy. Anyway, hope that helps. Gotta go, bye!
