alex13 Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 I can't wait to get a gator burrito. Scott, remember when we ate that frog? It still creeps me out for some reason. Yeah, I still feel weird about eating frog legs. Live and learn, I guess. As a kid it reminded me of eating my GI Joes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadbeat52 Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 James Montgomery of MTV spoke with now former Against Me! drummer, Warren Oakes, about his departure from the band, made official this week. According to the article: He left Florida agit-punks Against Me! for a reason that is understandable and completely proletarian: He wanted to sell burritos. We talked about the AM! situation, and Oakes wanted it to be known that he wasn't fired, but rather, his leaving the band "was really a mutual decision ... it was really amicable." He said he still considers the guys in the band to be "more than friends — they're family," and added that Boca is already carrying Against Me! guitarist James Bowman's homemade hot sauce on the menu. That Oakes did it does not make him a hero, it makes him like the rest of us. And perhaps that's his lasting legacy ... the everyman former drummer who ditched the dream and walked headlong into the rest of his life with grace and joy. Warren adds: I was feeling a little burnt-out on traveling all the time. It's a full commitment being in Against Me! I mean, it's 365 days a year, touring and working on new songs, and I always wanted to give 110 percent. Being in the band was a full-time job," he said. "But it came to the point where I did have to face facts and realize I was starting to express interest in having some other things going on, and trying to split my time and energy just wasn't going to cut it. So that was it. It was really sad — I was really bummed at first — but then the peace came. It felt really natural and it was a great run.

scottheisel Posted June 10, 2009 Author Share Posted June 10, 2009 Yeah, he should've asked Warren about what Tom blogged. I bet he hasn't seen/read it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baseballhotdog Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 I've got an ORANGE FIRST PRINTING that I'm thinking about flipping. I wonder if people will start collecting Boca Fiesta menus and all the variants.Warren better capitalize on that demand! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
