Rancid is on the Warped Tour this year, as with most years. I might put some stuff on by them, but as I'm a huge rancid fan, I've got several picked songs picked out to use as filler, if I can't get anything else.

Rancid is sort of second wave, admittedly the bouncing souls and nofx and those other bands are too, so I'd like to save their involvement for the second cd, or like I said, if we can't get enough old school punk to fill the first one. Bloodclot is a great song. I mean, let's face it, pretty much everything by Rancid is fucking great. Out Come the Wolves was (and still is) my favorite cd of all time. I guess my real problem with Rancid is which song do you pick? I mean, how about Salvation, but if we're gonna go there, then why not St. Mary, or Avenues and Alleyways, or even Maxwell Murders. And if we're into Rancid, then what about Op Ivy, there's no way I can keep Smiling, Knowledge, Unity or Here We Go Again off the list. So Rancid just sort of opens up the metaphorical can of worms you know?

EDIT

Actually I'm listening to Bloodclot right now, it's been awhile, and it's exactly the kind of song we're looking for. Totally high energy!

Good pick, it's definitely on.

EDIT

As far as the Transplants go, they're cool, but (and maybe I'm a punk snob) but their sound, although punk, is really different from anything else we've been talking about.

I hope I don't kill this whole idea by being a snob, it would just be great if we could get some old school shit on here, and unfortunately, I'm not old enough to remember enough of this to fill it by myself, it might be a problem that there aren't many around that are.

Oh, and I think All "The World's on Heroin" is a great choice, that's definitely on, I haven't heard the Misfits song you're talking about, D/Ling now, but I definitely think the Misfits belong, I considered "Where Eagles Dare" but will wait to see "Last Caress".
