picchick Posted April 16, 2005 Author Share Posted April 16, 2005 Thanks all! I still don't quite get it as a style for people to follow. I guess I can live with the music but I don't know about using it as a fashion statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazz4jesus Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 (edited) My friends call me Emo as a nickname. I take offense to some of yall definitions of this genre. lets look at the first posts, those are acurate definitions. Strong emotions. THose posters may not like emo but least they gave true definitions. Some of the recent posts were from Emo Haters, lets stop hating. as far as i know about fashion something about thick frame glasses. i dont know. I never payed attention to fashions of music. I do believe emo is a star while ska is checkered. forgot what punk was. Edited April 16, 2005 by Jazz4jesus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetpea316 Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Heh, I just got a pair of emo glasses not long ago... I thought they were cute.

I actually like Dashboard Confessional though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Im not making a blind judgement based on other peoples opinions on this kind of music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
