Mr. T Experience - "I Fell for You" Lookout! Records

[hangingtree23]

Just gonna leave this here but: are there any videos of MTX from the 80s online? Maybe from around the time of Night Shift at the Thrill Factory?

[iggys138]

check out a 90's gem i found king lettuce

[Motosake177]

pop-punk isn't a dirty word. I believe the one you are looking for is "EMO"

[23D1998]

@Motosake177 Yup, same can be said of emo. Used to be really good in the 80's and early 90's and now... now we got crap like My chemical romance

[TheMobbyB]

i loved this band but i really respect their hiatus. hearing them play the "hits" really bums me out. i'd much rather hear the newer stuff/

[katedarula]

Awww Joel

[dexter280]

It's like a old T.V shows opening sequence

[MostricBass]

@ChristeenaB did they play mre than toast

[AxDdWn9491]

@MostricBass yes

[Douchestache]

@MostricBass - yes



[MostricBass]

@Douchestache your lucky thats my favorite song by MTX. Do you happen to remember what year it was?

[emiterb]

Pop-punk became a dirty word when it started to become too wimpy, like the vocals in this song. I saw these guys in '91 at the Chameleon in S.F. I liked them at the time, don't know if I do now.

And @mikecoppolag is correct, the Ramones were pop-punk. Definitive pop-punk. However 90 some percent of their stuff came off as ballsy, EXTREMELY powerful pop-punk.

[mikecoppolag]

i think its so funny when people trash pop punk and bands like this saying this isnt real punk etc.... listen to any RAMONES album and what will you find? love songs pop songs? yup you got it! They were punk right?They fucking pioneered it! long live MTX, Queers, Screeching Weasel and every other band that busted(and stil busts) their ass just like the RAMONES and got jack shit!

[LongviewGD182]

@mikecoppolag And the RAMONES were the FIRST punk band, soo all this means is that

POP-PUNK=REAL PUNK

Hardcore,crust and all those other sounds came after the Ramones

[SkunkyAngry]

@mikecoppolag

Thank you! Couldn't have said it better myself! I still hear little wannabe hardcore street punks ripping on pop punk who don't know shit about the history of their own scene. I'm glad you do, though, mate :)

[underacheiver95]

@mikecoppolag you my friend are 110% correct

[jnordne2]

I saw these guys live back in the day. Maybe '98? They sucked just as bad live as they do normally.

[boige]

sissies, these guys turned me off of punk by inventing MALL ROCK

[tbwdtw2]

The blonde is cute.

Anyway, awesome band. I wish good pop-punk wasn't so overlooked. Why does Good Charlotte and Avril Lavigne have so many more fans than Mr. T Experience, Screeching Weasel, The Ergs, etc?

[FrogAndToad]

My favorite MTX line-up!

[Volume5]

This is such a good song. Funny video too.

[grapesofbaath]

Man, I really miss punk music. A great time to be in high school.

[samymunch]

i love the book the lead singer wrote king dork

[Polysmack]

@samymunch king dork was amazing. i just got andromeda klein, his other book.

[looshkin66]

@samymunch i saw him do a reading in sanfran and it was AWESOME!!!!!!

I love mtx

[BrittSquit]

Ii-i-i fell for youu-uu-u

:)

[dylanguitar1]

can someone tell me where i can get the tabs for this song!

[dannystringer3491]

if you can't work out how to play this without using tabs, you should probably give up the guitar.

[looshkin66]

word!

[Bertnol07]

use your ears ;)

[TonyRevenge]

The band is great! I wish I could find a CD of theirs!

[Drew]

Drew & the Medicinal Pen's songwriting hero!

[ihearttheweakerthans]

Great band.

[kickintelevision]

when did pop-punk become a dirty word?

god, i love these guys.

[edgehead62888]

That is SO true. Music is music, people. Enjoy and embrace it.

[YIKUMGD]

@kickintelevision since people started putting awful bands under that category that had nothing to do with punk.

[Official9to5Music]

@kickintelevision

when did punk become the outcast in music, fuck anything else

[SugarRae123]

i read king dork and you guys are just like the chimos.

[Greefus]

that's what i liked most about the book as you could tell it was pretty much the real life of dr frank in high school (or me or anyone that wanted to be in a band)

[200hotboy]

ya.underrated,same instruments ,and a drummer who cant count to four.)

[1eyefishy]

yo i read king dork and found out about you guys you all kick ass

thanx for that
