Bowling For Soup

I saw them at Warped '03 and got a shirt and publicity photo signed; almost the whole time while getting the stuff signed they were joking with both me and the booth clerk.

They are one of the few mainstream bands from the last few years that I enjoy listening to (although I do prefer the original SR-71 version of "1985" to theirs).

I used to be so into bowling for soup... but not as much now. i have a few of their old songs on my i pod but nothing new.

BFS are awesome men, I have met and kept contact with both Erik and Jaret (The bassist and lead singer) and they are very friendly and down to earth.

They even helped me with a gift off the giving tree at my work one year, by sending the little girl autographed everything, and it was all personalized for her.

They are fun to talk to and hang out with.

Definantly a great band all around.

I missed their concert last summer but I will not miss it again! They are great!

They’re one of those bands that always puts me in a good mood, no matter what kind of day I’m having. Their songs are fun, catchy, and full of humour, but they also have a lot of heart behind them.


One of the best things about Bowling for Soup is that they don’t take themselves too seriously. They know how to have fun with their music, and you can really feel that in songs like “1985” and “High School Never Ends.” But at the same time, they’ve got tracks like “When We Die” that show a more emotional and reflective side, which I really appreciate.


I also love how down-to-earth and relatable they are. Their lyrics often deal with everyday stuff—growing up, feeling out of place, looking back on life—and they do it in a way that’s both funny and honest.


Overall, they’re just a great band to listen to when you need a laugh, a singalong, or even a little nostalgia. Anyone else here a fan?
