Mr. Musicface Posted November 25, 2004 Report Share Posted November 25, 2004 Hah, it's cool that Not By Choice are playing in both London and Toronto! I'm gonna be at Healey's but this does sound like fun.- M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AD Posted November 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2004 And Kudos to Not By Choice. Even though they suck they'll be playing both the Toronto and London shows on the same night...ADEdit - Damn you MusicFace for beating me to it :: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamH Posted November 25, 2004 Report Share Posted November 25, 2004 Hmm...That website looks faux-cool so would I be crazy to think this anti-smoking tour is funded by Tobacco companies?Exhibit A: "It's gonna be big. It's gonna be stupid" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skelter Posted November 25, 2004 Report Share Posted November 25, 2004 The idea behind the campaign is "If you're under 18, and you smoke, you're stupid" ... it's aimed at kids 12 - 18. I'm producing the Kingston show ... the buzz is HUGE here ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollie Posted November 25, 2004 Report Share Posted November 25, 2004 I take it that no one in these bands smokes?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skelter Posted November 25, 2004 Report Share Posted November 25, 2004 nor do they drink, fornicate, or receive fellatio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoodRev Posted November 25, 2004 Report Share Posted November 25, 2004 I take it that no one in these bands smokes?! That was my first thought and I bet you it's not true! Stupid establishment and their stupid stupidity. When organizations or corporations try to make something appeal to the 12-18 set by trying to make it look 'cool', it is often so painfully wrong that it's, well, painful. "I'm Lovin' It!"
