Can I still call title this blog "Warped Wednesday" even though it's 2:45 a.m. on Thursday?

Warped Wednesday- 3oh!3

Of all the bands I'm looking forward to seeing on this year's Warped Tour, the band I'm most excited for is probably 3oh!3. Although I'm not really sure that former male models with an iPod and microphones can qualify as a band, I know that 3oh!3 is a show that should not be missed.

I'm a lyrics and beat person. I know I should care more about the musicality of a song, but I just don't. I'm perfectly capable of appreciating musical talent, but if the lyrics mean nothing and if the song doesn't draw me in, musical talent is irrelevant. And if a song is entertaining and makes me want to dance, but the band doesn't even play instruments-- I just put it in the "guilty pleasure" category.

And so I am a 3oh!3 fan. Call it a guilty pleasure if you will, but they're worth listening to. Especially because they're touring the AP tour with a live band, and rumor has it that they will be playing this way on Warped.

Last year I missed out on 3oh!3 because it wasn't until I got home from Warped and popped in my newly-purchased compilation CD that I discovered the beauty that is "Punk Bitch." Soon after, I listened to "Don't Trust Me" and, like many before me, I fell in love. Not only does the song have the line, "do the Helen Keller, and talk with your hips," but it sticks in your head for weeks at a time... in a good way.

3oh!3- Don't Trust Me

Once again the WMG/YouTube battle has forced me to embed an edited MTV music video rather than a complete version... Sorry!

PS: I'm now Tweeting for the Warped Tour Documentary, so check it out and follow me!

LMAO! 3oh!3 crack me up. I listen to "Punkbitch" a lot more than any person should.

Congrats on your new status in the world of twitter-dom.

And don't forget, "Don't Trust Me" and the Micheal Jackson/Eddy Murphy video line up so perfectly together. xD

Hey, I think I saw you today walking from Nelson! Ha-ha! I may have been hallucinating, but-- I thought I did.
