myLot Discussions on Less Than Jake Music | | Anyone going to see Less Than Jake at Summerfest in Milwaukee on the 4th of July | | I am so excited for Summerfest in Milwaukee this year thanks to two of my favorite bands playing on free stages on the Fourth of July!!! Less Than Jake plays at 8 on one stage and then Plain White T's plays at 10 on another. The first time I saw Less Than Jake was on their tour with Linkin Park, Korn, Snoop Dogg and The Used. I had never even heard of them, they were the first band to play and they have been my favorite band ever since. I can't think of a better way to celebrate our countries independence. I love the United States and I love Less Than Jake!!! | |

| | should i join | | [edit] Formation and Origin of Name
Jimmy Eat World formed in Mesa, Arizona in 1993. Singer/guitarist Jim Adkins and drummer Zach Lind, who had been friends since kindergarten, joined forces with guitarist Tom Linton and bass player Mitch Porter to try their hand at music. In its early years, the band emulated the style of their punk-rock influences, eventually recording and releasing three singles and a full-length on local label Wooden Blue Records.The name Jimmy Eat World did not refer to lead singer Jim Adkins. Tom Linton's younger siblings, Ed and Jimmy, fought constantly when they were younger. Jimmy, who was stronger and heavier, would usually win. Ed, at 8-years-old, as revenge, drew with crayons a picture of Jimmy shoving the entire world into his gaping mouth with the caption, "Jimmy eat world." The picture, and by extension the band name, may have been inspired by an episode of the cartoon show Tiny Toon Adventures, where the main characters put on a student film festival. Dizzy Devil's film, "Dizzy Eat World", was a 5 second piece drawn crudely in crayon where Dizzy's gaping maw engulfed the Earth.[edit] Static Prevails

| | Earn More or Earn Less in Mylot Does it Matters to you? | | Hello Mylotters, does it matters to you even if you earn more or less in mylot? why and why not? I have seen many members most probably those very active here in mylot that they seems to enjoy exchanging conversation in a discussions but if you will noticed they are just a one liner post so it means they are not paid right? In my part I don't care if they paid me or not for my post as long as I enjoy it but sometimes I think practically too instead that I post one liner why not make at least two or three so that the effort is worth. This is my own point of view, how about you? | |
