About Me

We are an idea, a dream, a hope. We are everything you want us to be, everything you hate, everything you love. We are your future saviors of music. We are what we want to be, either like us or hate us. We are not labeled, nor do we want to be. We are not cookie-cutter clean, nor do we want to be. We write what we want. We play what we want. We are here to bridge the gap between rockstar and scene kid. We are here to bring harmony to the emo kids and the punk kids. Maybe even the indie kids if they'll stop smoking and staring at their shoes long enough to realize what is going on. We are here to destroy all social concepts of our music scene. We are here to take Louisville, Kentucky by the reigns and ride the Louisville scene into tomorrow. Into a tomorrow where kids of all ages, genres, creeds, colors, income brackets, and musical tastes can live in a utopian mecca of not only music, but life itself. Abandon Arlington is a new band formed in July of 2005 by Danny Needham of Second to Scribner and AFE, Ian Brock and Shaun Oehmann of K.E.P., Nice Guys Explode, Big Dick Thugs, Yank, The Prom Season and Sunshine in Norway. We have a Screen Name. If you have AOL/AIM say hi or rip on Oehmann for being a bitch...ArlingtonTheBand.More of Ian - (http://www.xanga.com/toddmeister) More of Danny - (xanga name - iroxxxyoursoxxx) More of Shaun - (www.xanga.com/wornandtorn)
