dreamover Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 i never got into brand new, but my roommate used to really like them. my favorite (and only) brand new memory, was in '08 when we were at lollapalooza. i went to go see explosions in the sky (whom my roommate had never listened to) and my roommate went to see brand new. after their first song they said "thanks for coming, but what the fuck are you guys doing here? explosions in the sky is playing right now." my roommate and (he said) thousands of the crowd, then left and headed over to explosions.

seangj Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Best Brand New moment: Denver concert in January 2010. They had to cancel the previous October Denver show because Jesse was sick, so this was the make up show. My friends and I, and some strangers we met in line, were speculating what they'd open with. I think Vices was the consensus. They opened with Jesse on stage, alone, playing Soco Amaretto Lime. It was incredible. That show was awesome!

jimmyg Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I never really enjoyed anything after 'Deja' to be honest. It's all a little bit up it's own arse for me. Few of my friends are the complete opposite though, like everything after 'Deja'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chamb117 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Favorite band. Best band ever. Want so badly a TDAG repress, and a Deja repress. Make it happen. patience, friend, patience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dashhax Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I would go and visit my girlfriend( at the time) at UMASS Dartmouth every week and on the Monday I was going to see her I got a package in the mail. It was TDAG a week or so before the actual release date. So on my drive down to see her I listened to it the whole way, when #6 came on You Won't Know it hit me so hard I had to pull over on I-195 East. I sat there for 3 repeats of the song and then listened to the rest of the cd on my drive to see her. Maybe it's more sentimental for me but "You Won't Know " always brings up good memories for me.

PC Music Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I got D&G I think 3-4 days early and I was so psyched about that because I had refrained from listening to any leak. Luca scared the crap out of me the very first time I heard it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 One and only time I ever saw brand new was in 07. we got there very early to be front row. I remember looking at jesse and thinking “this man is insane”. He just lost it on stage. In a good way. Also, hearing him the story behind limousine was haunting.

TheMoosen Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Im sure I dont know all the details. But from what I think I remember it is absolutely horrific. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 there was one night a couple years ago when i was coming home from dinner with my family. my street is right off a main road that almost immediately turns into a small strip of state highway. and as we were driving along, someone started driving the wrong way coming directly at us. the entire song, every news report, every time jesse has told the story.. it all played in my head in about a split second. fortunately, crisis was averted, but it was terrifying.

Guest Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 there's something so haunting about the ~3 minute mark of that song. which almost feels shallow to bring up, because in the scheme of things, it just makes me emotional over the breakup that i had like a week or two after this came out. i forgot all about the dashcam. the second it popped up, i could remember the exact sound of that collision.

Dashhax Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 The story is very saddening, it's actually one of the only songs I don't like on the album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unwound Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 In a VW interview, Jesse said that Mike Sapone actually put explosions in loumisine..can anyone tell which part(s) it's at? And I also think Mike Sapone is extremely underrated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrrom92 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I live on the island, so when that accident happened, it was big news. And it affected everyone here greatly. I knew people on the jury for the trial. It was just a sick and disgusting accident. Terrible in every way. I can't even use words to describe it. I'm not at all surprised that Jesse wrote a song about it. What does the MS Rebridge signify in the title? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zuck Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 So I never knew this was what Limousine was about, it makes the song that much more haunting. I got chills watching that video. I don't think I'll ever be able to listen to the song again without picturing that dash cam footage. HOLY SHIT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stayed and watched Brand New. I am confident I made the right decision, he may have been moody but it was sure fun to watch Jesse flip out, throw his guitar, and walk off stage. Epic raw energy.
