    I love this song and it's like my 3rd favorite on the album...Knights of Shame, Jump on My Shoulders, Sail, Not Your Fault, All I Need, and Kill Your Heroes are all excellent songs

    October is going to be a good month. Pearl Jam in Philly 2 and Bmore, and AWOLNATION is headlining Towson's homecoming. With my connections I should be able to get backstage to meet the band. Could be cool. Either way I get to see two bands that I really like.

    someone wanted to hear some 'trap' version of that sail song in my car (I have decent system) a few months ago. I kind of liked it because it sounded sweet....I bought the whole album and yeah, I love it pretty much front to back. Some songs are a little too ....hrmmm bubblegummy? "Burn it down" and "Soul Wars" gets me fricking amped when I get in the car and blast it and make up for the other poppier songs....I just learned, this album has been out for quite a while. I thought it was new lol


    and yeah the Cat-Sail is the best video
    If a man speaks in a forest and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

    Got a VIP package for the show in Michigan next week! finally get to meet these dudes after 4 years, 5 shows, and many lineup changes later! Lucky for me, they are playing a short acoustic set at a bar not far from the venue before the show!

    they have done some acoustic performances before... they arent really always acoustic, because they have so many electronic elements. Im excited because i hear they are learning new songs for this tour.

    here are a few "stripped down" "acoustic" shows:

    Saw them recently, awesome energy! But I was probably the oldest person in the crowd by like 10 years lol. Only realized after the show that Zach Irons (son of Jack) is now touring with them.

    Zach just recently joined them last year after their guitarist of 6 years, Drew Stewart, left the band to spend time with his family. Before being in Awolnation, Zach was and still is in a band called Irontom that opened for them last summer on tour, and will open for them this summer as well. Singer Aaron Bruno of Awolnation is helping produce Irontoms next record
