seeing as there hasn't been a thread about them in over a year, I figured I'd start one up. just wondering what everybody thinks of the extremely talented and creative trio from Milwaukee. personally, there one of my favorite bands, definately in the top 5.

When my dad was a woodshop teacher, he was singing to Blister in the Sun and the students boo'ed him because he was making up his own lyrics. :lol:

so my buddy let me borrow one of their cd's. he's never getting it back. i've heard them before a little bit (blister in the sun obviously) but this whole cd is pretty awesome. add it up is my new favorite song

so are these guys still around? do they tour at all?

WHY CAN'T I GET JUST ONE FUCK?!

I don't know what they've been doing. I seen them about 3 years ago and they were a fucking blast.

High school smiles, oh, yes.

VF is one of the first rock bands I was ever exposed to. I've always liked them.

I seen them at the electric factory. ever been there? It was awesome, it was the only show I been to where they had tables and chairs on the floor. Not a ton of them, but maybe like 7-10 little round tables that would seat like 3 or 4 people around them, so you could sit there with your drink. I don't remember any of their fans bothering me. A lot of peaceful/hippy type people like the femmes. It was a fun show.
