Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture !Ace Rhythm Player	#1 by !Ace Youngs at Aug 10, 1973 at 11:13 PM EST
	this song is great. nothing much else to say. midtown kicks ass.

No Picture Vinnie Rhythm Player	#2 by Vinnie Valium at Oct 14, 1976 at 11:23 PM EST
	you were pretty close with the lyrics on this one, but this song has great lyrics overall. it's a pretty nifty song with pretty nifty lyrics.

No Picture a Average	#3 by a a at Apr 4, 1982 at 2:30 PM EST
	LOVE THIS SONG!!! This has to be my favorite song from Midtown. I think that these boys rock... I dig them!! I love this song, because the lyrics are awesome and I love the little break down part..."I don't believe in anything......."

No Picture Caitlin Rhythm Player	#4 by Caitlin Carlisle at Aug 7, 1982 at 5:38 PM EST
	I used to like Midtown much much (fanatically) more than I do now. Not because of their increasing popularity, I'm proud of them for that, but because their sound has drastically changed. "Save the World, Lose the Girl" was beautiful and insightful and unique. "Living Well is the Best Revenge" is just a run-of-the-mill, seemingly-less-talented pop punk album.

No Picture Musical Genius	#5 by oh.... THAT guy at Nov 23, 1982 at 9:50 AM EST
	i just saw midtown live at the warped tour in ventura! they kick ass live. i love this song, and i love the band oh so so so much! gabe is damn hot too! oh, and "newfoundfinch" ...i don't know where you read that, but it seems odd to me. i got to meet the band and gabe was incredibly nice. it was so obvious that he totally loved what he was doing...tyler was the bigger asshole. but it doesn't matter, cuz i love them all, and their music kicks ass!

No Picture David Rhythm Player	#6 by David Bradley at Jun 25, 1987 at 1:23 AM EST
	Midtown owns. Im glad they joined MCA records like NFG and other ownage bands. Driv thru is good but MCA records > all. k thnx.

No Picture Braxton Lead Player	#7 by Braxton Overby at Nov 16, 1987 at 2:08 AM EST
	Probably my fav song on Living Well... it's awesome! ;]
