Some of these people are so close-minded that they can't just accept a difference in opinion and leave it at that. The debates are interesting, but I can literally imagine some blood pressures rising just by reading the comments. It's pretty funny, I wonder if anyone else catches the humor in that?
Death Cab has definitely been the biggest musical influence in my life. I get what they're saying in a way that Pink Floyd or the Beatles or whoever has effected other people's lives... and you don't hear me talking shit about how wrong anyone else is that doesn't agree with me, it just baffles me that they don't know how to communicate like civilized human beings. Listen to what other people say and you might learn something.
Guys- can't wait to see you again next month! Loves it.
