O.C Supertones
 

Just came across an album called - For the Glory... released 2012

Anyone else heard this?

Yeah, I saw them at a festival when they released this album. I was actually kind of pissed off because they played before Five Iron Frenzy and went over their allotted time so Five Iron had to do a shortened set list.

That said, some of their stuff post 2000 was pretty good. They delved back into some old school ska, rocksteady, punk stuff that was great. I did notice, though, that the studio albums started to sound much better than they did live - especially towards the end.

Kind of a side note, but Ethan Luck - the dude that played on their live album in 2002 has since played with some pretty big acts. I think recently he was touring with Kings of Leon. He played with Relient K for a while, too.

They're still a thing?!

Nope. I'm pretty sure they just recently did their final farewell show. Sold some special tickets and stuff and did it in their hometown.

Well... this has gotten me on the downbeat...

I was also at this show, and it caused me to have rage. But not bad rage, because, you know, at least I got to see them again.

He played with a pretty big Christian group before the Supertones, too. I can't remember which one.

He has played either guitar, drums, or bass with the following:

Pax217
Project 86
The Dingees
Value Pac
Demon Hunter
Relient K

That's not a complete list.

I was a fan of each and every one of those bands to some degree at some point in the last 20 years. I still like a couple of them. That explains it.

Speaking of which....

I pledged. He's had his hands in enough of my favorite music over the years that I would enjoy a solo album I think.

Looks like he has heaps.
