So I'm faced with a dilemma. Franz Ferdinand are coming to Texas which they very rarely do and I'd love to see them but they is a catch they're opening for Green Day. How could a band like Franz Ferdinand that has headlined the Bonnaroo festival and played at Glastonbury be an opening act for a mediocre band like Green Day? A group of faux punk rockers, men in their late 30's that still wear eyeliner. And for any of you willing to protest me calling them faux punk I told my mother about wanting to see Franz Ferdinand but how I didn't want to watch Green Day to which she replied "what's wrong with Green Day I like them?" yes she apparently likes Green Day, for me that takes away all their creditability as a punk band. But anyway I really want to see Franz Ferdinand (I thought Tonight was pretty good but neither it or it's predecessor come close to the greatness of their debut album) but I don't wanna pay $100 to see them play for 30 mins and there is no way I'd stick around for Green Day. I can understand a band like Franz Ferdinand having trouble filling a 12000 seat arena in a state like Texas but there are much better bands to open for, also I'm sure smaller venues would welcome you with open arms. Franz, You Could Have Had It So Much Better
