Third single! Pretty good choice, actually, much more upbeat than the other two. Now this is one I would want to do well. Goes for adds on June 1st.

I was instructed to be on watch for local Kings of Leon concerts, because a friend of mine loves them all of the sudden, and she is one concert in debt to me after I bought tickets for U2 in the fall.
Live Nation came out of the blue last Friday and announced a KoL show that actually takes place tonight. 5 days advance notice. Why did Live Nation take so long to go public with this? Why did they send me another reminder Saturday and again yesterday that tickets are still available?
Oh, it's $42 for admission, that's why. $12 more than the $30 U2 asked for my tickets, when they also have Muse on the bill when either one of us would drop $30 for them alone in a heartbeat. I bet there's a lot of tickets still available for tonight's show and that they were just making a desperation attempt to make people in the crowd outnumber the crickets in the crowd.
Kings of Leon can kiss my ass.

Overcharging for tickets? No way! That never happens.

Is there a reason why Manhattan and Revelry keep getting overlooked, especially when those are the two songs, besides SOF and US, that get the attention of my non-KOL fan-friends?? Pff... Although, two perfect back-to-back singles is more than I can say for most artists these days...

"Manhattan" & "Revelry" aren't actually that suitable for alt. radio. If there's gonna be a fourth, then surely it would have to be "Crawl".

What are you, 11? How're you gonna make an angry face and just take that lying down?

Your "cool" points are in the mail. Umm whats that supposed to mean? I take it as something that sounds kinda ignorant. I dont drink to be cool, more of a social thing. Nothing to be an ass over really. Quit running your mouth to me just because Im defending myself, its nothing to freak out over...

Am I the only one that thinks the dark as f%$^ song Closer should go out to radio. At the very least it would eat up some serious night time play.
