Sucking @ life.

We suck @ life. I'm not sure if anyone reads this other than Brentlee and I, and a few of our friends, but we definitely need to step up our game, or get out of it.

Sincerely Me

Well. I am happy to announce that the fan site Sincerely Me NFG is back up and running. I started this blog shortly after it went down, so my entries may be few and far between for little while. Check out the stuff on Sincerely Me NFG. Contribute to the photo albums and forum. That's what I will be doing. I will continue to post some downloads if I come across anything new. That is all for now.

Honda Civic Tour

It looks like New Found Glory will be supporting Paramore on the Honda Civic Tour.

Media Update

I updated the Media page. I haven't checked to see if the torrents work yet. I believe they do, but I did them in a little different way this time. I will check them today. I also added RapidShare direct download links for those that don't download torrents. I added some album art to the page too. Some are real, some I whipped together last night. Don't judge me to harshly. Thanks.

No work and all play make me a poor boy.

Its a slow work day week month so I thought I would post a little update.

The Purple and Dark Green copies of Swiss Army Bro-mance are still available. The Pink pressing has been sold out for a while, so that is the only copy you should try to buy off eBay.

The band just finished a short Japanese tour and started their Australian tour. I am personally hoping that they begin the record writing process shortly after they return to the states. I am starving for some new music.

I will be fixing the media section tonight. Hurray! I will most likely make it look prettier and possibly add a download. I just am not sure what I am going to add yet. So yeah.

Sloth.

Due to laziness I have not posted anything for a while. Sorry, person that reads this blog.

The Swiss Army Bro-mance 7" is up for sale at the Dashboard Confessional Store.

It should be a green color if the rumors are correct

Edit: The color is black.

Edit 2: The color is maybe be dark green. It is possible the who ever was looking at the records when they posted them on the DC store was looking at them in the dark, and they looked black. I don't really know. A source from Epitaph had said it was to be dark green. The DC store says black. I will let the world know when I get my copy. I hope it turns out to be picture disc with my face on it.

Edit 3: It is mos def Dark Green

proof

I put it by a Tip of the Iceberg black pressing.

Something I call Shenanigans!

Here are a couple more videos from Steve's Tumblr page.

Chad, Jordan and Cyrus playing an acoustic rendition of "Something I call Personality"


Also some more tour bus shenanigans:

"I'm gonna be on tv one day."

I know it's a little late, but Steve put together a video of footage from the tour thus far. Check it.

Juno what I'm talkin' about.

Chad posted a cover he and Hayley recorded of the song "Anyone Else But You" by the Moldy Peaches. Go check it out here.

Media Down

Other than the Swiss Army Bro-mance in the Media section. All other downloads are down for right now. I had to change my Torrent client. I will have those uploads up again soon.

Help Mend a Heart

Jordan and his family have set up a website, helpmendaheart.com, to help his mom out. Maureen caught a virus that attacked her heart around Thanksgiving time and since then has been in the hospital. She is without health insurance and is in need of a heart transplant. Please donate if you can, I know I will be.

New Songs In March

Me and Reidzor will not say anymore about the drama. We gave our 2 cents. No more.

Chad posted on the What's Eating Gilbert site that more new music will be available March 9th. I can't wait.

"It's all about the He said she said bullshit."

Ugh. I know that Brentlee has already posted on this, but I have to weigh in too. I've been with my girlfriend for 5 years, and I've heard people talk shit about our relationship, and I've told them off. So I get where Max is coming from, but, he should have just left it at the fucking tweet. Seriously. Dude, okay we get it. You're pissed about what another person wrote. It's not like he said, "Sherri you twat, you broke my heart and did nothing but make me miserable." He said, "I keep thinking 'bout her, how she hated, everything about me..." This could have been about any single chick he's dated. I understand that you feel your wife is perfect and that she could "do no wrong." But let's face it, this had nothing to do with Chad to begin with, it was about you and your wanting to make a big deal out of nothing. Have fun in the lime light, I hope this is all worth it for you in the end.

I gotta say something.

I just posted Chad's response to everyone giving him a hard time about the content of his songs. I decided that I have to say something about Say Anything front man Max's novel of a response. I have never read something more whiny, trite, and self indulgent in my life. I wonder if he realizes what a hypocrite he is. It gave me a migraine headache reading the rubish. I am married, and I completely understand getting upset if someone says something bad about your wife. But Come On! Maybe all the women Max has written angry songs about should have their husbands or boyfriends or significant others write 5 page essays on why Max Bemis is a douche bag. Just make sure you keep saying that Max isn't the reason why you are writing it. That's what Max would do, and apparently that makes it OK. I'm gonna end my opinion here. I don't want to end up in Max Bemis land. What a dick.

P.S. Say Anything is mediocre at best.

From AP.net

Chad sent this message to AP.net to calm down the shit storm.

Dear AP.net readers,

This post is just to clean the air. Yesterday I released 3 solo songs on my new blog/music website. One of them called "Thinkin bout her" is a silly exaggerated love song about my past relationships. I want to stress the word "relationshipSSSSS". The other member of my band even wrote some of the words to this song. It was just a fun song singing about learning self confidence and celebrating it. In no way was it geared as an attack to any one person or to anyone at all. It was just a song. The people that have been hating on it and writing mega long posts have put a name to the song. Not I. You can write about anything in songs. Cannibal Corpse sing about eating people. The Decemberists sing about being stuck in the belly of a whale. I wrote a song about past LoveSSSSSS. A very common topic in songs. I never said it was about one person in particular. I haven't and still won't air dirty laundry and lash out to anyone. Life is too short and fragile, which I was recently reminded of after having a tumor removed from my neck a month ago.

I have been receiving amazing support from so many artists and fellow musicians and fans. This was blown way out of proportion for no reason. I feel sad for all parties involved. People jumped the gun and need to be happier in life.

Love,
Chad

P.S. Check out the song that started this whole thing at www.whatseatinggilbert.com haha!

Keep up the good work Chad.

Whats Eating Gilbert

3 of Chad's songs are up for download. Go to Here to listen and get the songs.

Update: I gave the songs a listen. I think they are great. I can't wait for more. I also decided not to upload then to the media section yet.

Chad Valentines Day Gift

If all goes well. Chad will be making some of his solo stuff available on Feb 14th. I can't wait. I will do my best to keep you informed, otherwise just obsessivly follow chads tweets like I do.

Get'em While Supplies Last!

The Purple Swiss Army Bromance 7" is up on NFG Stuff right now. Hurry. I am sure they will disappear soon.

New Media

I uploaded the Swiss Army Bro-mance 7" to the media section. I am trying Rapidshare instead of torrents. I guess I will see how it works. I had found some already uploaded copies of it a few days ago, but they wouldn't work on my iPod. I figured others may have had the same problem as me. The download includes MP3 and FLAC versions along with scans of the record.

For those that are a little behind

You can go to Kings Road Merch and pick up a vinyl bundle that includes what is pictured here.

So don't buy a pink copy of Swiss Army Bromance from those assholes on eBay charging 40 bucks.
