Relient K Band • Page 32

Going to their CD release show in Akron next Saturday. So excited.

 

Someone on the subreddit said Relient k gets 75 minutes for their set at least. And I don't think it's been said who's playing first and second so they could be the closer for shows on the tour with Switchfoot

 

with it being "looking for america" tour and that being one of switchfoot's songs, i'm not too hopeful. maybe they'll alternate? we shall see.

 

Hoopes said Switchfoot would play last, but Relient k would still get a full set.

 

Here are the CDs someone was whining about, oops, wondering about.

 

Yeah, fuck that guy, right?

 

Sarcasm is legit

 

Maybe one day we'll grow out of AP forums. one can dream.

 

i personally dont care about cds for this album cause i dont like this album. but usually yeah im on team cd

 

Yeah cuz 100 CDs is so much

 

what is going on

 

That's part of the whole jokey joke

 

Sorry, my internet sarcasm detector is off I guess

 

It's cool. I think this band just keeps being ridiculous.

"We have a CD release show tonight"
"We don't have any CD's though."
"I'll go burn some, probably not enough for everyone attending if they would like it. But, Problem solved. We are a professional band."

Just absurd.

 

Yeah as much as I love the new album and the fact that they are happy to be playing shows they have been seriously dropping the ball on album cycles, haha.

 

I mean, I guess it works for them or they would change. But man is it just incredibly odd to see happen.

 

YUP.

 

Maybe they're just trying to add an intimate, exclusive touch to the release show. I don't know, definitely don't think any lesser of the band because of it. Kind of silly TO have any issue with it, if I'm being totally honest.

But whatever, not why I'm here. Listening to FANSD for the first time in a couple years right now. This album is breathtakingly great. Fuck. I don't know if there's a song on here that misses for me. Particularly blown away by "Savannah," which I didn't remember from my initial listens.

 

I agree to a certain extent, I don't particularly care that there are no CDs. That said, I think that people's issue is that the band said there would be and there aren't.

 

Oh, I guess I didn't realize they had promised actual cds and then they backed out. That's super sketchy, then.

 

Savannah is easily my favorite song by them. It's pretty much perfect

 

Mike at SMLXL said there would be CDs "soon" and RK tweeted the same thing. I know everyone wants everything right now and they wanna know what's going on, but I trust that they'll actually have them at some point.

 

I guess I'm in the minority in thinking getting to experience the release show and leave with a limited, burnt/hand-signed cd is awesome and not annoying.

 

I loved it and got one. One of the best shows I've ever been to. Ha

 

The vocal melody in the verses of "Savannah" is so impressively fucking challenging to nail down/replicate.
