modest mouse is an excellent band!
!
1. If Modest Mouse wasn't on MTV, I bet you will like the music then. Can't you see how stupid this concept is [Thrice]? No, fool, you can;t like a band's music because of how popular the band is. It's like saying "I LIKE APPLES BECAUSE I EAT SOCKS".
2. "I want Modest Mouse to be all mine....It's about performing in front of six little people at a bar,. WWWAAAAAAAHHHHHHH ITS MY BAND!!!!"
Let's say [austin] you started a band, and you want to get a lot of money, but you are a real "man" and you refuse any major record labels or anything that will give you a lot of publicity and money, because you "want the 'fun' of performing in a local bar". Eventually a fire starts in your old cheap messy trailer, and all your equipment gets messed up. Guess what...YOU REALLY SUCK!!! Your band is over, and it was FUN!!!!!
3. The people who keep saying that Modest Mouse is a sellout, or that they suck, or that they have too much fame, or too much money, or too much happiness, or too many fans, or any other vague, unjustified, useless, and insignificant comments might as well start their own band, see how "good" it feels NOT to go in a major record label. ---------
BOTTOM LINE: It's really annoying that all over the internet, I see all kind of idiots crying about how Modest Mouse is too famous. You can't be too famous! You can't be too lucky, or too happy, or whatever. You got to take it while it's lying there, if it isn't already running away. If you "indie" fools always have this attitude, you're in for some bad news. Life will not let you say "I think that I won't make any progress because I love sitting at the bottom of the pyramid."
Yes, perhaps this statement will save your life, indie fools: YOU HAVE TO TAKE IT WHILE ITS THERE, THERE IS NO GOING UP IF YOU TRY TO FALL DOWN.
I wish all the best for Modest Mouse and their musical career.
