      Re: sasha[/re] - That is not true!! It's merely your opinion, anyway, because I thought the Jonas Brothers sounded great. Joe especially. That's his VOICE, a lot of people love it.

      Nick has been hoarse and cracking lately…I'll give you that. But he's freaking 15 and has been toruing nonstop. Cut the kid a break.

      Hey Mary, I've seen Sum41 live twice (both times at festivals I would NEVER pay to see this shit in and of itself) and they do suck live. Like completely suck. I don't if that's the "Not So Blind Item", but you have shitty taste in music or you're completely tone deaf. "He's not feeling well this week wahhhh"

      Re: steve – Hey Steve, you suck. Nickelback rocks, especially live. Listen to other stuff besides Rockstar and Photograph; try Leader of Men or Side of a Bullet. They are not the pop band you think they are.

      120

      What's a voice corrector? Like, a backup track or something? Because usually stuff like that is only used for eye candy, if he's fucking ugly and he can't even sing what's the point? It's probably true, though. Sum 41 are just a bunch of uneducated posers.

      121

      As soon as you said "troll" and "canadian", I knew it must be Derick Whibley of Sum 41. They're fucking wretched….

      122

      Nah Nickleback for all your Calgary cowboys is actually better live much better (its the energy mostly) but SUM41 hahahahaha they suck why are they even famous anymore there getting a little old to bitch about being broke and banging girls arent they?

      124

      Sum 41 is actually an awesome band, although I do admit that without Dave they don't sound the same and their old stuff was way better. Just because people hate Avril they shouldn't hate Sum 41, at least they write their own music.

    27. fuck perez says – reply to this


      127

      perez only hates deryck/sum 41 because he ignored him at those brit awards. i would ignore his fatass too. and he only hates avril because she is actually famous for her career and not for being a mess like all of the other celebrities that he admires.

      Re: haLs – Well, not that I like Hedley, but Jacob Hoggard the lead singer did come in third on Canadian Idol..so I think it's safe to say he doesn't suck that badly at singing, to need a voice corrector for a live performance. I say its Sum 41.

    43. Lyric says – reply to this


      143

      hopefully nickleback,
      i mean the only good friggin' song they have is rockstar.
      all the rest sound the friggin' same,
      ugh. nickleback should die, please.
      && i doub sum 41,
      i just saw them live a few months ago,
      hello "THEY ARE BETTER THEN AVRIL"
      maybe they had a cold or something,

      151

      their music sounds the same as it did 5 years ago…shouldn't musicians and theirs "music" (quotations because it's SUM 41) evolve with time. Oh well at least the lead singer is married to someone talented…sort of.

      153

      It was SUM 41. Obviously not Simple Plan, because they've been in Europe the past week and Pierre Bouvier CAN sing live and that band can play their instruments properly. I have to add that Sum 41's recent UK tour went very well and apparently they were really good live and they didn't get bad reviews, so perhaps Deryck had throat problems or something…

      and perez was in their music video.

      why would he diss those hotties?

      but i still wonder who the band is…

    59. DALE says – reply to this


      159

      Simple plan was awful at their "live at much" pierre's vocals are horrible (if you like really nasaly singing) and lyrics that sound as if they were written by a 6 year old.

      173

      Sorry Perez, but I'm going to assume that you've only seen Sum 41 once, and that it was hopefully an off-day.
      I went and saw them at the General Motors Centre in Oshawa, Ontario on the 19th, and had a hell of a good time, but maybe it's because I like all genres of music.

      BUT, I'll give you one thing: Deryck Whibley is a troll, no doubt.

      174

      It's easy to talk and say they suck.
      But they have talent and they write badass songs.

      So unless any of you idiots can write better songs, and make it big, just keep it zipped cause you have no right to talk sh*t.

      End of story.

      Re: Tara – you're also a fucking idot. don't assume a band is 'punk' because they have a name like arcade fire. clearly you've never listened to them, so shut the fuck up.

      you're the sort of moronic bitch, who in a desperate effort to fake some sort of artistic integrity probably thnk requiem for a dream is an emo movie because of jerred lettos shitty band.

      don't try to fake musical knowledge. basically just shut the fuck up.

      its actually pretty standard practice to use pitch correction. you can't un-invent something, we've become so used to hearing pitch perfect voices so as soon as you hear someone without one it sounds bad. listen to anything before the 90s and its all pretty badly out of tune by todays standards.

    83. trixie says – reply to this


      183

      It's called auto-tune you losers and everybody uses it live. You are a moron. Brittany or what ever her name is CAN"T sing , even with auto tune she sounds like she's singing through her nose. You are an idiot but we don't need auto tune to figure that out.

      184

      I agree with chris and trixie. This is so not scandalous. Lots of bands do this live ALL THE TIME, and I mean real bands, not just popstars. A lot of people would be very surprised at all the trickery that goes on at live shows, if they're surprised by this.
