A Day to remember, Have they changed?

I know, I know. This topic has probably been covered before. By many other people much cooler than I. But that's where you're wrong. I'm the coolest person you'll meet today.

In all seriousness, I enjoy this song. Seeing all the stuff I've been going through recently. It kind of hits home with me. I think as a fan, and a weirdo (not exactly in that order) I use songs as a form of expression. If you looked at my 125(currently) video playlist on the youtubes you'll see the random ways I've found to either make me feel better or even think about certain things.

Hey! I have an idea, I'll do a blog about EVERY single one of those videos. No? Ok fair enough. Hell, I don't even have the patience to do that.

Back on topic.  ADTR was probably one of the very first(fun fact I almost spelled farts there, if you needed a laugh) post-hardcore pop-punk bands I ever listened too. They've always had a good rhythm and the sound has always been pretty sick. My Sister and I have yet to go see them, and we will. WE WILL FIND A WAY! So yeah they've changed but let's look at this in a retrospective. I'm currently 25. I first heard ADTR when I was 14. That's eleven years of music. ELEVEN. What does that tell you? They were probably kids when I was. Just a bit older(and much cooler, but I'm fuckin' awesome now. So I think we're on a level playing field.) I act like I can't look stuff up while I'm typing, so after I looked it up, Jeremey McKinnon, my sister's future husband(keep dreaming child) is currently 33. Six years older than me. Think about when you were 14. Now look at yourself now (alright, you old fucks time is up)  Things have changed haven't they? You've grown. Some for the better. Some for the worse. They've all grown up. Want to know proof? The only member of the group to leave, Tom Denney(besides that drummer who I'm pretty sure we forget about)  left to spend more time with his family. Now I think that's what we call growing up, isn't it?  Most bands I listen to a couple to name a few don't even have any of the original members. Dance Gavin Dance and Ice Nine Kills(they have a few and I mean no disrespect still pretty awesome)

So let's not plot to bomb the panhandle (See what I did there?) They're still the same old guys, singing the same old songs. Just now, they're writing with experience and hearts. How about we act like the real fans and Just enjoy the music of the moment.
