Dunno the Squirrels, but what about The Muffs? Having been through the YFF and Minus 5 discs once each, I like the Minus 5 a little better, but enjoyed both. For anyone else who did the yeproc twofer pre-order like I did -- put in BOTH bonus download codes before downloading the bonus tracks, it makes life simpler. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 27 Jun 2009 12:30:01 -0700 From: Andrew Hamlin Subject: Re: [loud-fans] gotta love the little tag on the new young > I guess it depends on how you define "made it"; -- the Fellows get to > keep on writing and recording don't they?
