they used to be the "dashboard confessional" of their time. Some people didn't like them because they were too catchy and didn't bring out the true meaning of emo to the general public.

I think the Get Up Kids are pretty cool. They're not my favorite, but I've been to a couple of their shows. They have high energy sets generally speaking. I'd go to another one of their shows.

i heard there was this one concert where the guy paused to admire the sunset.

i dont see how people think they arent showing the true emo or whatever. the lyrics are amazing. "how long is too long when youre waiting by the phone?"
