Hey jroddy! How are you? Think you can have a couple of posts about the Features under your belt before plugging your own stuff?

Do it CarlW... DO IT!

Sorry Peace Frog, but joining this forum for the express purpose of promoting nonFeatures stuff is not prohibited-- it's just frowned upon by many of the members.

Plus, I hear Mr. Pelham is a big JRoddy fan.

I remember this band from several Features shows anyway. One from Chat town and another from a show @ The Boro. They were very energetic and probably one of my favorite openers. They spoke very kindly of The Features both times and even stuck around in the crowd when the Features began playing at The Boro show.

Unfortunately, I hear the guy who played about 6 different instruments (and walked through the crowd with his trombone) is no longer in the band...

FWIW, The Features are big J. Roddy fans. Go see this band. I'll prolly be there.

I'm sure they are a fine band... and I do recall the guys mentioning them. I do find it quite humrous though that Carl would have been the first jump this guy, but because they are favorites of the band they get a pass. Something tells me if this was the infamous band Nemesis, we wouldn't even be having this discussion.

I had a burr in my ass yesterday, and what the hell? Why not vent on here... I still think its just plain old bad form to make your first post on any board you belong to a self promotion piece.

My two cents. Now ya damn kids, get off my lawn!

I agree with you, PF.

Maybe why they're letting it slide now is that the FISTers, working on the Features' behalf, are doing this very thing on other bands' message boards?

Good point JC.... like I said before, I wasn't trying to put down the band. I guess I'm just longing for the good ol' days when you'd hit refresh and if somebody posted something, it was worthwhile, or at least had a solid attempt at proper spelling and punctuation. If someone plugged something, they were almost putting their rep on the line, so you knew it was relevant.

The board is starting to accumulate a bunch of absolutely worthless posts. I guess it just goes with the territory as The Features start to pick up new fans.

Monotooth/jroddy, please accept my apology. You more or less walked into my line of fire, versus me actually seeking you out. I just hope to see you contribute to the community. Welcome!

Doesn't anyone else want to discuss the other band in the topic? Monotooth's faux pas pales in comparison.
