Goodbye to the Format

Heather noticed that the Format are disbanding (the post on their myspace blog says it was amicable & everyone is still friends). This is sad news; the Format was an excellent pop band and they put out two great albums, chock full of pep and handclaps. If you’ve never given them a chance, well, no time like the present! “Interventions & Lullabies” especially is worth the listen.

01. The First Single (Cause A Scene)
I’ve been waiting all this time / to be something I can’t define

02. Tune Out
The fifty-one is backed up and too slow / let’s tune out by turning on the radio

03. Time Bomb
Tell the new wave kids their make-up kits can find me / where self-pity gets a breath of fresh air

04. Inches & Falling
I love love being in love / I don’t care what it does to me

    Remember when we saw them at Kilby Court and they lit a fire in a barrel and those two weird girls had driven up from Cedar City?

    Yes, I do remember, and they were getting down with the handclaps…one of them was almost crying. I bet she’s crying now.

    The Format were cool and fun to listen to. Too bad.

    Ps. I forgot how much I enjoyed reading your blog. I’ll be reading it more often now that I’m through with school.

    I think it would be grander to buy the CDs…at least to the Format fellas, who probably need the $$. But I will reupload those four.
