311 .....rarely will you ever find a band that people are so passionate about loving/hating. I personally like the band, but I go on spells of 6 months to a year that I can not hear their music. I don't know what it is....P-nut, Chad Sexton, & Tim Mahoney are all good musicians. They really put on a great live show, but something about their music can be reaaallly annoying.**cough, cough...SA!There is no doubt in my mind that they have gone downhill as their albums have...

It's 2:05 a.m as I write this. I recently discovered 311, despite the fact that I had heard about them for quite some time, I'm just now getting to listen to them. I'm a little backed up, music-wise. So much that I was beginning to feel overwhelmed. My collection's stashed away for a few months, so...without my cds, I'm at the mercy of MOG, of you, my trusted mogs, my dear friends and anyone who stumbled upon my rambling. I love the night and I feel refreshed and content a... MORE
It started with pop music. Those annoying, catchy songs everyone has heard that cling to the inside of your cranium like crazy glue. For those of you who do not radio, I hope you never know this type of torture. Growing up in my teens, I latched onto the idea that if a song was super pop-y and catchy, I would not like it - you all know the whole teenage rebellion ways. This is why I initially despised rap & hip hop (although I was diggin' Bob Marley and a few of my par... MORE
Unfortunately I will not be going to 311 day any longer. My husband started a wonderful new job and is unable to attend the concert. Ofcourse he would not mind if I went without him but I would rather stay at home and steal happy hours with him...besides 311 always stops in to our town and throws down. No worries....
this is a special day. it is a day dedicated to one band, a band that rocks harder than most with a positive message. 311 day is held in new orleans, LA, it is a all day groove and a six hour concert. This will be my first time attending this great show. I will report back with more details as they come.
so im getting closer, its like 5 days now til i board the plane for NOLA. excited!!!!!
My friends brother , Chris Sweeney, died tragically back in July. He planned on going to the upcoming 311 show about a week later 7/29/07 at the Tweeter Center. One of Chris's friends got in contact with 311 and they dedicated "Dont Tread On Me" to Chris. If anyone has a video or sound recording of that song at that concert please let me know because, I would like to give it to Chris's Sister. RIP
...i was still in my teenage years when i listened to this. Dont really mean much to me til now, after listening to the lyrics...
So, last week I had the amazing opportunity (thanks to my brother for the tickets) to see 311 and Matisyahu!!The cool thing is, I've been a pretty big 311 fan for years ... probably about 11 or 12 ... and this was my first time seeing them in concert. And they were, comepletely, amazing! I was so impressed at their undeniable musical prowess - not that I had any real doubts, mind you. But quite often bands sound loads better on their albums than they do live. Thankfully, 3... MORE
...of The Cure's Love Song. Im still not sure which one i like better. This one has a certain lilt to the rhythm, im liable to dance with someone to it than to Robert Smith's rendition, but its all good...
Music is an art that I relate to but don't have the creativity or ability to create myself. I love the lyrics that are placed together to create emotion that the creator related to at one point in his/her life and it just so happens that many many others also relate to those exact words. The music that enthralls the lyrics is amazing on another level. The music puts more emotion and emphasis into the meaning and actually sets the mood for the song. There are many songs... MORE
they do suck. i stole a bunch of music off of Dj's computer and 311 accidentally slipped in. i will delete as soon as i can.
thank you.
