The Early November Band • Page 35

So many great fall tours.. will have hard decisions to make.. it's sad I'm not getting tickets to this bc in my mind I still need to save money for a brand new tour

 

that $25-30 is really gonna set you back that much? ha

 

It adds up when you think brand new and thrice are doing tours, and then I'm going to two Manchester orchestra dates, kevin devine, menzingers, hotelier.. at some point I have to draw the line lol.. this may or may not be it.

 

I got American Football, Dashboard/AAR, Touche Amore, Julien Baker and now this so far this fall. Gonna be a good one.

 

all get out, waxahatchee, etid, mayday parade (uk), nfg (uk), touch amore, the maine. and now I'm considering fly back from England via salt lake or Denver to go to this. pretty sure my wallet hates me

 

Yea I'll probably end up going to all get out too lol

 

Damn, I was reallyyyyy hoping for a song. Or that the tour would be near me. Oh well, i'll wait

 

I'm dead because there's nothing left for me since they'll never tour near me it looks like

 

so is the idea at the end of A Bigger Meaning that there was no psychiatrist? that Dean/Ace has just been talking to himself this whole time?

 

I believe so

 

ive been trying to get a better grasp of the actual storyline of that album. im guessing all 3 discs are about Dean with him being the "narrator" in all 3 albums. i figured The Mechanic was him recalling what his dad was like, The Mother recalling his mom, and then The Path is his story and how similar and cyclical his life is compared to his dads.

 

I think I read an interview once where Ace says the Mechanic is the father's story, then The Mother is the son's, then The Path is what ties them together. I could be remembering wrong. Your interpretation sounds pretty accurate.

 

Yeah, there's no therapist, only Dean. Hence the pitch effect on the vocals starting to fall apart and just end up being Ace. At least that's how I saw it.

 

ahhh i wanna go to thisss

 

This band is just so phenomenal yet so underrated. It's weird though because they get a lot of praise and respect from some big heavy hitters in our scene like Geoff Rickly, Jim Adkins, even Chris Conley

 

I didn't even realize they got praise from those folks

 

I think it's funny that FOB opened for TEN back in 2002-2003. By 2007 TEN was supporting FOB on their Infinity On High tour.

 

Jims said before he really likes their sound and how they use really vintage instruments and tones to make their music. They've toured with Thursday and STD before and Geoffs mentioned them in a couple interviews as being a band he felt were ahead of their peers.

Same thing happened with Thursday lol. Pete wanted to open for Thursday since he loved Full Collapse then all of a sudden Geoff opened for FOB one show. MCR had the same thing happen

 

Some working song titles

Needle In My Hand
Make My Bed
13 Years
You Own

With it being a double album, I'm hoping it's another concept album

 

double album??

 

if 13 Years isn't a Five Years sequel

 

wait its a double album oh shit

lets go

Daddy Ace always delivers

 

They've been saying they're recording two albums

 

"you own" is the best title

 

it still makes me so happy that they're even making another record (or two?)
