Tonight we feel alive.

I feel that I should speak about a lot of things the people seem to be confused about in terms of last nights civil war on facebook.

First thing I would like to say, before I start dismissing the nonsense that has been used in the defense of Set in Color and Stereo Skyline, thank you all for the overwhelming support. It means a lot to myself and the other guys in Bellwether that people actually do care.

Next, you're welcome. Call me a narcissistic, condescending prick, but we got you all fired up, something I haven't seen in a long time. It was great to see so many people voice their opinion for what I am assuming is the first time publicly. Let us hope that this emotion carries over to live shows, cause the bands need it, and would appreciate it greatly.

Now, the part that no one wants to hear, because it makes their arguments null and void.

First claim: Bellwether is jealous of Set In Color because they are successful.
Reality: No where in the song did we mention success or jealousy. In case you missed it, go back to the site and read the lyrics.

What we are sick of, are bands being fake. Bands that don't write, record or perform their own music. Believe it or not, Set In Color and Stereo Skyline fit into that category.

Which brings me to

Claim #2: That you are sticking up for your friends/ boys.
Reality: They are not your boys. They were MY boys before the term "boys" was even a term of endearment.

Chris and I go further back than anyone seems to realize because he has basically erased me from his life. But the truth is if it weren't for myself and Matt Lags, Chris would of never been in a band; Set In Color would never have existed.

Kevin Bard is another person who I have a history with. In fact, he was the camera guy for MY old band Valet Parking. He even tried out for guitar once, and we ultimately decided it wouldn't work do to severe lack of ability to play the guitar (not being mean or an asshole, this is the truth).

I can go on, but will choose to stop because I will just wind up going on rants that will never end. So I will leave it at this.

There is more to the story than you will ever know! Quit pretending that you do, because you don't.

Heres my evidence, enjoy:

I will admit that Kevin isn't tagged in the next one, because he doesn't have a facebook.
