Rough Draft

(Not a) Red Letter Day

The Get Up Kids are releasing a final live CD and then moving on. Saw this coming for a while what with Matt's second band The New Amsterdams, and James fronting Reggie and the Full Effect and playing keyboard with New Found Glory, but nonetheless it's pretty sad. Their album Something to Write Home About was what got me into punk/emo music back in high school when Mike first sent me some of their mp3s, and it remains one of my favorite all time albums. And so I say, so long to TGUK and good luck.
