Hey, I'm Jamie and I'm from Minnesota... Twin Cities, yeah! And I enjoy just playing a bunch of songs on guitar/ piano and having a bunch of fun while singing them I guess I was asked to come here because of my covers, But I probably would have found this eventually...
but any way
I like art... We charge into danger riding on a black panther! music animals staying up late No drinking No drugs No drama I'm silly I just got braces on Thursday I'm nice.... supposedly I'm not all that tall But not short either... Last concert I went to was Against Me! October 16th....
But anyway I'm too tired to think of anything else about me, so just ask
---rest in peace to my cat who died on Halloween on Friday, Pretty epic to be a black cat and go out on Halloween almost like it was supposed to be that way---
Peace forum dwellers,
Jamie

I'm going down to Minneapolis in a few weeks to do some shopping, and I'm usually down there when AM! makes a stop for a show ( I was there last year, Nov.23 ). Maybe I'll bump into you at one point or another.
I'm from Winnipeg, by the way, hah.
Oh, and welcome here.

Welcome to the forum! I can't say anything along the lines of having been to Minnesota or intending on going their in the near future as the last two posts stated, but Minnesota is a pretty awesome sounding word.
Oh, and I'm pretty sure we would like to hear some covers. Right, everyone?

People generally really enjoy my Unsubstantiated rumors cover
Just search "against me! cover" on youtube and it should be the first one...
if all else fails just go to www.youtube.com/redflufflykins
to watch any of my (not the best) AM! covers

you're 17?
I like your Miami cover and your Joy cover best.
Would this work on you? Hypothetically if my name was Josh?

lol I wasn't asking you, I was just curious if it would work on you, if it was a guy you knew.
I was looking for a girl's opinion.

ahhh I really need to listen to other peoples covers a lot more and just watch more stuff in general, I probably won't be on the internet that often after sunday because that's when I leave Wisconsin and go back to Saint Paul Minnesota.

Oi!
I'm just a half hour (ish) bus ride from you on the U of M campus. And I was at that show on the 16th, btw. You may have heard me screaming along whenever possible
I'm headed to youtube to watch your covers...

HAHA! I was on the right literally RIGHT in front of James against the restraining bar thing that crushed my lungs... I was wearing this black and teal striped shirt that looks more like a dress... and then really skinny black pants
One of my friends in another state who talks to Tom a lot asked him to say hi to me from my friend, and so yeah... did you hear tom say "this song's for Jamie" before he sang joy? I can't help but think that that was Tom's "hi" from my friend... And then I think, he might have seen the first video I did of Joy and then I was thinking... that's embarrassing if he saw it...but still the concert and that whole awesomeness surrounding it was amazingly fun....I couldn't believe it... it was all awesome. Except for that weird cartoon on that screen before they went on that was going on for too long than I could handle...yuck

I LOVE YOU
because you are the reason he played Joy and that was the highlight of the concert -- and maybe my overall concerting experiences thus far. I'm sure I heard him say that, but I don't remember the show in detail........ except freaking out when they played the Energizer and then again when Tom played Joy and then screaming my lungs out and getting weird looks during "We Laugh at Danger."
I was about to puke at that cartoon........ it was unnecessary. I looked away for the most part.
I didn't see you, sorry. I was dealing with some drunk guys with strong elbows and a voice that liked to go out frequently. I was wearing black pants and a blue and black striped polo shirt. I'm about 6'0'' and skinny as shit, so the center of gravity is high and the arms are skinny and shows are a battle, but WAY too much fun to stay in back!
Ted Leo was very impressive at that concert, too. It was one of those things where I didn't like them before, but after seeing them, I had to start listening to them.

haha! I said "that's me!" and "thank you so much!" but my girl voice was not overheard, heard you yell though! It's nice to hear about the concert from someone I've never met being at the same place. I was like "He's singing it for me!" to someone I knew at the concert, and he was all like "oh right" Like he didn't believe me... But I know it was for me. AH! Just talking about it again makes me so excited. That whole show was great. I can't hear so good in my right ear because of it but, whatever! I got to meet them for the first time at Warped in Shakopee, so I got to show Tom the drawing I did of him in person, and it was awesome... I didn't really talk to James, and Warren was so awesome, I talked to him for a bit and then he asked me if I had anything to sign and I had him sign my camera battery... Then Andrew wanted to sign it for some reason! But it's pretty neat. I saw them at the target center too but those were not good seats... Lets just say they looked like ants, and we got there half-way through their set, and they didn't have long to play in the first place...
haha my posts also seem to be long winded.
well, nice to (kind of) meet you any way. And actually you should be loving ian, he was the one who asked tom to say something to me at the show.

I love Ian, too. Tom played Joy, that's all that matters, haha!
I'm currently enjoying your covers, mostly because of the random faces/comments you make to the camera. Your voice and guitar playing are great, too Oh, and the swinging during The Ocean makes me laugh as well.
It's fucking 3:17 a.m., so I'm going to bed. Nice to (kind of) meet you as well. Maybe I'll see you at the Triple Rock or First Ave some time.
