    yeah but to my ears radio song is a rip off of the vines. its the first and only thing i think of upon hearing it.

    how about timothy? what do you think of that one?

    and has anyone heard sgt major? holy hell, tell me that doesn't sound like a certain mancunian band.
    ha. I think everyone had this exact same thought when they first heard sgt major. Jet does Oasis.
    I only lied because it was the easiest way to get what I wanted.

    I like that they don't sound trendy. Black Sabbath meets Zeppelin.. very retro. I like em enough.
    Black Sabbath meets Zeppelin not trendy?

    Anyway, Jet rock out, don't think they are the saviors of rock, and frankly don't give a fuck if you think that they're derivative of their influences, because what band isn't?

    JET rule. A band of drunks a la Oasis who simply don't care what anyone (my guess this includes message board people) thinks and just do what they do.

    An Oasis/Jet/Buckcherry bill would just slay. They could call it the "You're All A Bunch Of Bloody Fookin' Wankas!" tour. ANd I'd definitely go.

    Discuss.

    Smoke another doobie because you're really high. Jet blows. (No pun intended)

    What a ridiculous thread.

    That being said, I've seen Jet twice this year. Enjoyed the hell out of them.

    Why? Because they put on an entertaining show that consists of straightforward, riffy, Rolling Stones-esque, rock and roll 101. The brothers can sing, Nic is a good frontman who could easily pass for the Gallagher brothers better-looking and much less annoying cousin on their father's side, and who says music has to be deep and meaningful, anti-this or pro-that to give you a good time?

    Sometimes you just want/need the music to be fun and to rock you. Jet fills that want/need.

    The question is: Did they open with "Round and Round"? I saw them open for Helix a couple of years ago.

    Speaking of Helix:

    Jet has a magazine? How do they devote 50+ pages every week to Jet? They don't exactly have much "new stuff" going on.

    JET Magazine has endless pages about how the band wishes that talented writer from the Synergy Message Pit would write a drunken review about GET BORN and SHINE ON.

    it's a picture magazine. it also contains a crossword, a find-a-word and a quiz where you can find out which member of JET is your perfect match. plus a blog by chris cester bitching from behind his kit about why his brother won't let him sing more songs :D:p
