thank you

i get good mileage out of "tonyage" too. it being my name irl 'n all.

but yeah, they're awesome. milo aukerman is often my punk rock persona when i'm playing "stars of the 80s hardcore underground".

i love that compilation 'somery', essentially a best of, i guess. so many awesome-as-fuck songs: 'good good things', 'sour grapes', 'clean sheets', 'suburban home', 'hope'... waaa! just too great

You don't get played on the radio

That's not the game you play
Well I don't care anyway
I glued your tape in the stereo
So I know every word, every note
And every chord is right - right on
When I feel weak you make me feel strong
Make me feel strong feel like nothing's wrong

I won't say your name
You know who you are
I'll never be the same again now - no way
I just want to say thank you for playing the
Way you play

The instrumental song

after that one is genius! I think that's what makes the later albums almost the equal of the earlier ones - the unique way they play the instruments. Songs like 'Caught' are so weird compared to similar pop-punk or whateveryoucallits!

Such a great band.

descendents *cringe*

"Eunuch Boy, Eunuch Boy
Thought A Lawnmower Was Another Toy
Don'T Laugh At Him Cause He Can'T Piss Straight
He Can'T Even Masturbate
Got No Gonads, Only Two Sockets
Got No Bulge In His Pockets
Eunuch Boy, Eunuch Boy
Thought A Lawnmower Was Another Toy
Can'T Even Make It Through A Day Of School
They Try To Stomp His Shriveled Little Tool
It Must Suck To Know You'Ll Never Fuck"

any band that has songs with lyrics that bad is tragic. i find it quite grim that anybody over the age of 14 could like this stuff!

i dont listen to them as much as i should, but i have massive love for Milo Goes to College.
