Thee talk you have with a person you're dating while in the car. Instead of looking them deep into their eyes to spill all, you speak at the windshield-dashboard area and exit the stopped vehicle.

a band that writes music on subjects that inspire them.

um, like any other musician/band in this world?

and for the people that say the bandmembers from dashboard cuts their wrist, wears all black, and paints their nail black, please pay closer to attention next time because NONE of them are ANYTHING like that.

besides whats this "emo" thing about anyways?

A truly amazing band in my opinion. They're basically acoustic emo.

For you people that bash Dashboard Confessional, you do have the right. Because if we took away your right to express your opinion, we'd have to take away ours to make it fair.
Although I think it is better to just not listen to the music if you don't like it than to bash it, you have the right to say whatever you want.

Yes, Dashboard Confessional has very sad, depressing lyrics,
But that's because he wrote them while his heart was broken.
People listen to sad music because alot of times it reminds them of good times that they've lost.
So yep, that pretty much explains it. I like Dashboard Confessional.

wow i'm really tired of ignorant people being total assholes about this band. do people insult you for the metal music you listen to all of the time? i certainly hope not. because insulting us about the music we find refuge in isnt any different.

to all of the people who think chris carrabba is a girl for his lyrics and he has "ovaries" or whatever you say, do you have ANY idea how small-minded you sound? its just like saying: women cant play sports or skateboard simply because playing sports is a guy thing to do. if a guy who plays guitar and talks about his feeling is such an OPPRESSIVE thing to do, well minaswell get rid of equality for minorities then. deny us of our rights and simply commence the debacle of the free world.

chris carrabba is exercising his right to free speech by composing his songs and venting his emotions. there is no law that says YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO DASHBOARD CONFESSIONAL OR DIE. if you dont like the band, dont trash them, just simply dont listen to their stuff.
At the Civic Tour:
"All of you guys screaming faggot and waving your fucking middle finger out in the crowd, come up on stage. I'm giving you the mic. It's an open forum.

-silence for a couple of minutes-

Come on up! I'm talking about what i feel, so why dont you talk about what you feel? Sure i like Thrice and The Get Ups Kids too. they're great bands. But that doesnt mean that i dont have something valid to say.

-still silence-

Well if i'm such a pussy for singing about what i feel... well then this pussy is going to sing some more songs."
