Scars on Brodway

Adults?

Am I the only person here over 21?
Seems there are a lot of teenage fans into SOAD, great. But most of you were still in pre-school when they were a new band.
Not saying it is bad thing, fans are fans! But would be nice to know if I am the old lady here.

Oh yeah

I have a son who is 21 and a teenage daughter, so yeah, I'd have to admit to being over 21.

I was well into my forties when I got into SOAD, myself.  So yeah, I'm even older than Serj.

And it's not a bad thing.  I love making friends with cool people of all ages on these boards.  With music, age doesn't matter.  A great musician told me that once.

*smiles*

(Oh, and CDoris, don't you know?  We are escaping from SOADfans and infiltrating this place.  Mwuahahaha!)

Cool!

I am almost 30 & a mother of 3 and often feel old when I see how young some fans are.

Nice to know I am not alone in the adult world of SoB!

There was this twelve year old grabbing the scars cd at the same time i was in best buy and i stared at her becasue she would have just been born when SOAD started. It's nice to no kids aren't listening to crap though.

I completely agree with you!
Better to listen to SoB or System of the Down than the music pimped on MTV!
Some young ones have really good taste in music.

here

I'm 41 and going to see SoB next month (woo hoo!).  It will be my first concert/club excursion in years, so thank you SoB for being so darn brilliant. :)  Now I just need a date!

not here

i am 16 in november

25

There are a lot of fans over 21. Think that the younger crowd have more free time since it is summer.
Most of us adults have jobs.

Thanks!

Thanks to all the grown-ups for coming forward and I do use the term lightly!

20 here

Yeah there are a lot of youngins on this forum.

As far as the MTV discussion goes, I haven't seen a music video on that channel in ages. MTV is horrible. Last time I checked, MTV stood for MUSIC TELEVISION. Theyve fallen far away from that. And as far as the new artists on MTV, Scars is never gonna win. I wish they did but people are way to into people like Miley Cirus and the Hip Hop artist. I use to like rap but I found that talking in a song and having someone else make a beat for you takes little talent. Playing an instrument and SINGING takes talent. That's where songs get their names right? from singing? Anyways I'm done ranting and I think it sucks that Scars doesnt have a chance to win the new artist award.

Poor children. At least the people on this site actually know good music.

Adults

I am 26 .

...

My mom loves Scars and System...she's 44.  She's not in here though haha.  I was in Jr. High when they started, not preschool haha :p

And tecnically, I'm over 21 by one year if that counts :D   

Heheh...

I'm older than your mom... ; )

Yeah, maybe that's why I haven't totally got into this forum yet, everyone does seem quite young. Or maybe because I've been really busy with work and stuff... Anyway I have been totally obsessed with Scars since the album came out, today I actually made myself wait until I was walking home from work before I listened to it... man it was sweet though...
Anyway I digress... good to see I'm not the only ...erm... 'mature' person here. :D

you too?

I can't stop listening to the cd.  Every song is good, maybe because they're so different?  He writes incredibly catchy songs but with so many layers to them, you don't get bored with them.   It's a bit  embarassing but I'm really digging  this cd and am looking forward to seeing them september 6. 

Anyone else from Denmark here going to the show?  (how high school is that, lol)

Age

I love this!
But you are wrong, age was a more than a number until I truend 21, now it is of couse.

SOAD has fans that come in all shapes, sizes, ages and countries.
They should be very proud of what they have accomplished!

They ruled RULED the FUCKING world.  Now it is SoB's turn!

say my name, dammit

yes i really am a gramma (Grand Mother)

Subjective

I am almost 30, and the furthest thing from an adult.
I play with play dough and legos, drink from sippy cups and dress like I am 15.
And get crushes on crazy Armenian rockers.

I hope I am a super cool granny too.
I am sure by the time my kids have kids I will still be a teenager with droopy boobs and gray hairs.

Take a tip, take a tip take a tidiptiptip from me

29

?

^ Nothing wrong with liking Madonna, is there now? I mean, even if you don't like her music, you still gotta respect what she's done.

As for age, I've been around for a couple of decades.

2.4 turbo rs

I have 24 years ¬¬ rs…
the times I have the impression that here the people in Brazil,
I look at stranger for who I like rock and roll,
maybe for thinking that this is adolescent thing..

27

27... and feeling quite old when I'm going to concerts, surrounded by all the youthful and powerful moshing fans there

Uh

Really? I'm felling quite too young on concerts ;-) I'm 17 and on the most ones I was people around me were older. Usually I see two or three youngers or in the same age and the rest is about 20, 30, 40 and etc.
It's really nice to see how many different people listen to the same music. I always get touched.

666

lol, age is just a number...
I took my 13 year old to Reading Fest last week, I saw about 5 people younger than her and I saw about 4 people older than me (42). That really surprised me, if you've been into rock music all your life age doesn't matter??
Being a granddad too, I'll take anyone on in rock music quiz :)
'njoy


Oh yeah! I'm SoB's No.1 fan :D

No! I am... ;D

And thankfully, my kids are starting to get into them too, or maybe they are just finally starting to admit that they like them. Bloody teenagers...;)

Adult?

32 year old here....I will be seeing Scars at the Chicago show.

.

31 years young here!

old timer

i"m nearly 40 lol although i am never gonna reach that age as i am working backwards now hahaha and my 5yr old was so cross she couldn"t come to the SOB gig with me so i have had to download the album onto her ipod as consolation.  just shows your never to young or to old to appreciate good music xx J xx

a-d-u-l-t-s?

I'm over 25. Does that qualify me as an adult? :)

1975

The best year.

Adults?

Without shame, I admit to being 50. I know, isnt that some shit? Have kids ages 27,14,and 12. Fortunately they dont listen to that rap shit. My influence on them with music is only the good shit..besides soad and scars, only metal and hard rock. I guess my music likes will never change. Just because Im not 20something doesnt mean I cant appreciate good music, even tho most my age dont know the bands I like. I know what I like and dont make excuses for it. And definitely not trying to regain my youth, I like where I am and wouldnt go back for anything. Good music is good music, no matter the age of the musician or the listener. Im also a "veteran" of many Ozzfests, Ive never felt outta place among the younger people.  I do think Im not the "norm" for people my age, but who cares...Im me.

Adults?

I'm 22- My brother is 13 years old and he was practically raised on System. He was psyched about the Scars album I bought for him. Better than Jonas brothers eh?

You're only as old as you let yourself become

27 here

Re: Adults?

29 almost turned 30 here.

Am a bit disillusioned. Thought this was the adult rated thread where the roadies posted their groupie escapades...

Re: Adults?

Hey all. I'm 29 and when I grow up I want to be a kid
