| Lovedrug on Switchfoot: they have "hearts of gold". |
The Switchfoot Wikipedia article has now achieved "Good Article" status. This makes me feel like a proud parent, since I wrote nearly 50% of it (mainly everything from "Influences" to "Other Projects"). *feels accomplished* :$
Wouldn't it be a dream come true for every fan, to have your professor make your class listen to "American Dream"? Well, for some students its a reality.
Audioslave guitarist Tom Morello is friends with Jon Foreman?
There's some Switchfoot stuff being sold on this charity auction for Darfur, I thought someone here might wanna pitch in a buck.
Lovedrug, one of my favourite bands (they have a killer live show), loves our favourite drug. Said Michael Shepard, their lead singer, in an interview:
You've toured with a number of high profile bands like The Killers and The Juliana Theory. What was your favorite tour and who was it with?
Shepard: ... As far as tours are concerned, though, I thoroughly enjoyed the tour we did with Switchfoot. I guess because it was the first tour we did that we were actually treated really well on. The guys in Switchfoot have hearts of gold. It's pretty astounding.
"A heart thats made of gold can't really beat at all"? :-P Sorry, couldn't resist.Labels: news, what people say. |

Hey Phil, its Jacob from the boards. could you please make the links open up a new page instead of loading in this one? It gets rather annoying x-ing out and having to open a new window again. Gracias!

His name is actually Michael. Michael Shephard.
Anyway, I got to talk to him a little bit about Switchfoot and he said what great guys they were and what an awesome time they had on tour with them.

@Hailey
oops, sorry Hailey. corrected it. Morning blues, I guess. Besides, aren't there like a couple Matthews in the band? There was a point when I called every one of them Matthew in my head :D
@Jacob
Hi Jacob, thats a good suggestion, I'll try and find an automated way to do that - so I don't have to type "target=_new" or whatever the code is into every link.

No worries :)
There used to be 2 (3 maybe?) Matthews, but they all left. ha
Now it's just Michael, Korey, David and James.

Hey phil, did you ever think that the "heart of gold" line in Faust could be a reference to Neil Young? I just thought about that the other day. Who knows...

So what is this news I hear that their new cd matches up perfectly to Edward Scissorhands. Someone mentioned that you put the CD/iPod on shuffle and repeat and turn on the movie. That's pretty flippin cool. I think the album is called everything starts where it ends
