HAHA your joke last time was better!! The scooters sounds really fun..my boss got one for him and his wife and he totally crashed his the first time he got on it but he was okay. Have a great time in Florida..wish I was there!! Much love...

Posted by: Alyssa on April 27, 2004 03:16 AMHeh.. just thought i'd say that my band's name is Special Guest. We thought it would confuse people. See, say we were lucky enough to go on tour with you guys one day ^__^ and the tour pages and whatnot would say:
Smile Empty Soul and Special Guest
Great, huh?
Posted by: Autumn on April 27, 2004 03:21 AMThat cookie joke is CRUMMY. HAHAHAHAHA But no, really, it sucked. :P Your others were better!!
Anywho! Weird thing happened to me today ( and Thursday, actually )! Some guy from my school sang Silhouttes to me because he knows I like Smile Empty Soul ( probably 'cause I wear my SES shirt all the time ). It was... odd. But it was cool to know that SOMEONE at my school has heard of a different song by you guys other than Bottom of a Bottle! So yes, just thought I'd share that.
Hmm, so Derek... You say that you read EVERY ONE of these, 'eh? That means you saw my drawing, right? Because, you know, if you DIDN'T... I'd have to hurt you! :P My character I drew has your freakin' LAST NAME for HIS NAME so you BETTER have looked at it!!!
Hehehe, I'll leave you alone now. :)
Posted by: - Samantha S. on April 27, 2004 03:22 AMhey guys! its jenny from detroit. do you remember the 3 sisters and Ann from the bus at Harpos? well anyways we thank you all again! hope you guys come back soon!!!Also, i hope you remember me derek...hmmm.. and yeah,i told ya you wouldnt call, lol. anyways, you made a new fan! you are all great!

Posted by: Devyn on April 27, 2004 03:36 AMso, i've been thinking. what happens if you're in the middle of a song and someone happens to choke on his spit? just curious. i think about stuff like that.
Stefani
Hey guys,
ya'll rock! believe me, ya'll will get the viewers pick. i mean ya'll deserve it. I've been voting like crazy, i even got my mom voting too. good luck guys, cant wait to see ya'll play at city fest in Charlotte!
Hey Derek, Ryan, Sean...

I am glad you came out Derek to go to the Finger Eleven bus because my friends and I would have been waiting all night for you all. It ment a lot. Thanks for letting the other guys know that we were outside waiting to meet them. Not even 5 mins after talking to you, they came out and walked right to us. Awesome guys!!! You have to be one of the nicest bands to your fans. Thanks so much. I can't wait to see you all again really soon. Keep rockin!
PS.

Hey guys! Just wanted to say hey and thank you for an awesome show at Bonzai in West Palm Beach, FL. The only reason why my friends and I went was to see your band. Wish I could have seen a longer set, shitty radio concert rules. Your music has effected our lives guys. There is so much that I relate to. I have so much respect for you as artists, but something better happened after that show. We waited to see if maybe there was a chance to meet you guys after the show. After a while it was looking shaky, but then... Derek walked out and talked with us and took pics. Thank you! After Derek asked us who else were we waiting to meet? Our response... the rest of your band. Ah-ha! Not even 5 min. later out comes Ryan and Sean walking right towards us. They said what's up and took pics too. I thought that was so nice. I have never met a band like that before. A band that cares about making good music, standing up for what they believe in, and most of all THEIR FANS! You all rock! Can't wait till the next Smile show...

P.S. I have some jokes for you Derek...
Since you are always entertaining us:
*What's the difference between chopped beef and pea soup?
Everyone can chop beef, but not everyone can pea soup!
*What do you get when you cross an elephant and a rhino?
el-if-i-no
*Why don't aliens eat clowns?
Because they taste funny.
*Two peanuts walk into a bar.
One was a salted.

Posted by: Tanya on April 27, 2004 04:51 AMHey... I'm sure you've heard like 50 million of these "types" of messages before but I just wanna say that I really want you guys to come back to Dewey, DE at the Baycenter. All my friends (to this day) say that concert was the best one they've been to and they've been to really big concerts, like the Vans Warped Tour but they stil say your's was the best. It def kicked major ass AND it was my first crowd-surfing debut :-D totally kool... but I dont wanna sound like a broken record to you guys... I just want another kickass performance like the one we had on July 27th... I know you can't really help where u go but def mention to your record company that you've still got some fans waiting for you to come bak and kick ass again in Dewey! Later Guys!

Posted by: ((JesiKa)) frOm»TeNnEsSeE« on April 27, 2004 05:16 AMHey guys! Glad u r having so much fun in Sunny FLA! CAn't wait till next Tuesday at the NorVA! I'm pretty sure the show is going to be sold out. I'ts been beautiful here for most of the past two weeks, but we just had a helluva rainstorm, and it's only supposed to be in the 60's tomorrow. Maybe we'll get lucky and it'll warm up for next Tuesday! WE can only hope! ONly a few more weeks and you guys will be home. How anxious are you?! I bet you can't wait for a little R & R at home. I know a few people there can't wait till you're there! I have also been voting and trying to spread the word. A few "newbies" will be with me on the 4th. Renee is VERY excited! WEll I'm gonna run. Just a few more days! Enjoy the trip back northward.

*~.:Stacie:.~*
Posted by: Stacie on April 27, 2004 08:13 PMThanks for the update. Little crazy to be doing a post, this is the first time. Anyway, probably one of your older fans, but that is cool right? Really excited that you all will be in Colorado in a couple of week. My friend and I first saw the band when you opened for Seether and Trapt in Boulder last year. We had no idea who you were but thought the music was cool, crazy that even though we were probably two of the older fans in the crowd we could still relate to some of the music. This will be the third time we will go to see you and we recuit new people to come with us every time. You are lucky you will be in Denver during the weekday. Right now the trend is to be warm and sunny during the week and snowing on the weekend, just my luck being that I spend my week behind a lovely computer at work. Speaking of which I better get back to doing some. Have a good tour and see you in Denver.

Hey you guys again it's me Kathrine again and I am bored again. I love you guys so much and I'm glad that my friend finally likes you guys. I'm so happy and our band is getting along great but I still don't have a drumset I'm too poor to buy one but I won't be soon. I was eating a pop tart and I burnt my lip I almost just spelt "poop tart" I'm weird anyways. I'm gonna go in my room in a little bit to blast my music untill someone calls the policce but hell they won't even get me to turn down my music. I heard this urban legend at my school it was that a girl was getting married and she wanted to be tan so she went to the tanning booth everyday of the week so when she came home after the second week her fiance said that he smelt something cooking so she went over and checked in the oven to see if anything was cooking and she found that there wasn't anything then she got a strong scent from her skin so she smelt her hand and noticed that the smell was coming from her so she ran into the shower and tried to wash it off but the smell never went away. So she went to the hospital and the doctors took an x-ray and they came back and told her that she had cooked her internal organs and that she only had one week to live. So she never got to go to her wedding I guess. But I don't think that's true because if you cooked your organs I would imagine that they would stop working and that she would die instantly. Well yeah I better go I love you guys have fun!!!
Love always Kathrine (Squee: the drummer from a band called Mis-Understood Children) Also the #1 fan in Upland California
Hey guys, what's up? Aw, I'm jealous, I really wish I were at the beach right now, lol. Sounds like you're having a great time. The weather in Missouri sucks.

Posted by: SpiffyShannon on April 28, 2004 02:16 AMDEREK ,You probably will not read this since its like the 110th post but anyway. Do you think its weird or stupid to get band tattoos?, because I have tattoos of bands that really mean a lot too me and so far all I have is AFI but I really want a SES tattoo. Just not sure what to get. So yeah, I love you guys so much.Your music is like Therapy for me as weird as that may sound.

Posted by: ALEXIA on April 28, 2004 04:03 AMSo this guy walks into a bar and says, "Gve me two beers." The bartender obliges him. The guy looks into his wallet and says, "Give me two more beers." So the bartender gives him two more beers. The man went on like this until he had put down ten beers, and keeps on going in his wallet and asking for two more beers. So the bartender asks, "What's in your wallet that you keep looking at?" So the man opens his wallet and says,
"The more I drink, the prettier my wife gets."
when you played at teco(Ft. Myers), we waited in line for over 4 hours just to see you guys. It was well worth it. Next time you are down here we will be front row again, I promise!

HEY GUYS!!! How are things? I just wanted to drop a quick line and thank you for everything last night...I feel like I may have been a pain making you guys sign like everything I own, but of course you guys did it b/c you are the greatest and so super nice! Thanks so much!! I also must say kick ass set last night...I was so pumped to be right in the front for the whole time, minus the fact that my head got slammed into the guard rail...I have a big ass bruise on my head today. Looks real cute! But totally worth it! I must say probably the best night of my life!
Ashley and Valerie, great to meet you guys at the show...I had a blast hanging w/you guys! I didn't make it back to Orlando until like 3am and had to be at work at fuckin' 7am!!! I am pooped!
Well, I guess I should probaly work.

Posted by: Brenda on April 28, 2004 08:31 PMHey SES!!
Shit, im jealous, i've been dying to hit the beach! right now im bored out of my mind! i stayed home from school because im sick, been sick all week, missed some gorgeuos weather. I could of played in the rain on monday, splashed in the puddles on tuesday, and took some sick pictures today...damn i hate being sick!
i cant wait until you guys come back to ny, i promised myself i wouldnt miss another show, i already missed like 4 really good ones this year.
my friends uncle is getting us free tickets to ozzfest this summer, we're syked. Especially with the rumors of a black sabbath reunion!
I have to admit, im in love with your music, its one of my few ways of therapy to keep me sane, the #1 therapy is playin my guitar, but listenin to music is #2 and your cd is in the top 3, in tie w/ a few others.
You guys fricken rock! Keep on rocking!! Well i think i've wasted enough of your time, peace!
Posted by: Kate, NY on April 28, 2004 08:43 PMsince all the fans are voting now we should start trying to get Smile Empty Soul to do one of the late nite shows! huh?

Go to college and not have to worry about all these bad people trying really hard to get me to bad stuff and I can feel safe and live up a really good oppurtunity, or stay in H.S. and take 4 good classes and be misserable around people?

<3 Kelley
Posted by: Kelley on April 28, 2004 11:38 PMAhhhhhh! My mom took my SES CD last night so she could listen to it at work today. And you know what that means?? It means I didn't have it to listen to right before I went to bed!!!! OH IT SUCKED. But to make up for it, I listened to Finding Myself on repeat because that song is just so awesome. Hmm yeah, you see, I usually listen to my Smile Empty Soul CD before I go to bed every night. It's a habit now, so it's all weird if I don't. BUT NOW I HAVE IT BACK yay. I shall listen to it tonight!
Heh. My mom and I share some of the same intrests in music. Like you guys, for example, and Rob Zombie and Lynard Skynard. :P Yes, we're a bit odd ( or atleast I am )!
HEY GUESS WHAT I smell dinner cooking. HAHAHA I'm hungry...
Ooo, hey, I have a cool question!! When you guys were younger, what cartoons did you used to watch ( or even STILL watch )? My brother and I watch cartoons all the time ( he's 20, by the way ) and I think it'd be cool if I found out that one of you three used to watch GI Joe or something. GI JOE ROCKS!! So does The Fantastic Four! YEAH. And Spiderman, X-Men, Sonic X, Family Guy, The Simpsons ( those count as cartoons :P ), and I could go on and on! But dinner's done, so I have to go eat.
ANWSER MY QUESTION, PLEASE. If you don't, o'well! Just thought it'd be cool, though. BYE

Hey! I havn't posted in a while. Read me! Whoo!
Well, seeing as how Sean or Ryan seem NEVER to post a dang thing, Derek, how's it going? Man, I went and saw you guys I didn't meet you Derek. I met Sean and Ryan but not you.
I must see you guys again and atleast meet you. My Smile Empty Soul life would be fulfilled. Unless I could date you!! yeah but that won't happen.
I havn't bought the Punisher soundtrack yet. I need to do that.
Well, I love the shit outta you guys. You fucking rock. I cannot wait to hear a second album.

You guys rock, I'm listening to 'with this kinfe' as I type, and there are only 14 tracks on the cd not 16, like you wrote in.
