good luck to them they deserve it.

Couldn't have said it better! I can't wait to see where they go from here. They deserve all the success they can get!

What's your point? Gaslight fans will suddenly stop buying their records just because their president isn't the biggest fan?

Nope. I built a statue in the president's honor. I offer it Pomade and high top sneakers every day.

I don't think he said anything wrong. My guess is Sink or Swim did not sell a ton of copies, so he is referencing the two with sales worth noting. Regardless, you spazzes need to calm down.

Helluva first post there. Over a year in the making too, wonder how profound your next comment will be...

My bet is on either "Jews caused 9/11" or "The Gaslight Anthem is a corporate conspiracy to increase the sales of Levi's products, much like Nirvana for flannel shirts".

meh...

im not commenting on whether or not this guy should have known of the existence of SOS but..."referencing the two with sales worth noting" meehhh SOS will most likely always be the best record so i personally dont five a guck about the records with sales most noting i guess.

I wonder how the new CD will do in sales.

I am sure that the boys wil make the prez glad he signed them to Mercury
