phantom planet and rocket summer


Phantom Planet was one of my favourite bands. 
I was a fan of them when they were just a local band from Los Angeles,
When jason schwartzman was in the band.
Heck, I saw them with Rooney at CBGB!
I've seen them in LA, before they ever went on a proper united states tour.

I saw them tonight..
and it brought back happy memories.
Because when the guest came out, I was attached to the hip with it, just like i was with Is missing.
Then that california song became big.. years after I knew about the song.
The funny this is their current single is do the panic. 
I don't like the shoodoobie doo addition one bit. why the remake?
I don't get it. It was on the guest.

Why do they release songs as the hit single years after its release?
It's quite strange.
anyway, they did anthem.
And seth from the rocket summer played with them on Big Brat. 
Always on my mind.. i think i reverted when they played that.

I will always love them.
Maybe not as much as I did, but I'll go see them live. 

It was shocking to see them open for the Rocket Summer, another band I love.
Those are two bands I would never think would tour together. 
The Rocket summer really reminded me of Something Corporate, and that's why I really fell in love with them. It's piano acoustic rock at its best. 

It's so weird how now they attact such a YOUNG fanbase. 
their crowd makes me feel OLD. 
i loved calander days. and Hello good friend..
I have yet to pick up the new album..I'll get it.
I still love saturday and cross my heart live.

Me and my friend hung out with Seth before the show. 
He's a cool guy and I told him about all this random stuff I knew about the Phantom Planet.
lolz,
It was a good night.

Peter's going to koa. I wonder if he'll survive that 12 hour bus ride.   Hope hes not drunk on mangolassi + vodka.
