CandleBox Forum Gone Options

[Hoodstock]

It happened a while ago but Candlebox used to have a Forum on it's website and they completely took it down.

I was on it when TGF was getting started. Kind of a bummer to see it gone with all the stuff happening right now.

Im here because of Candlebox, not because of LIVE. Have always just been a bigger CB fan, while I still enjoyed LIVE's early records too.

I like how he says they would have been a success.... like if the "hardcore" fans from both camps got together the band would have been catapulted to fame.
Think again... there arent many hardcore for either band left. This is 2011.

The sad reality is most casual fans of both bands have no idea TGF even exist. There is no room for real rock in this day in age. Everyone Ive introduced TGF to (who are fans of both bands, usually) are surprised there was a Gracious Few record.... and ALL appreciate it. I havent given the album to one person who hasnt dug it.

That's exactly it! As people get older to state they are a hardcore fan means that they are still listening to the old records. Not many people even knew about the last Candlebox record. I was giving that one out left and right also.

I have a friend who thinks he's on top of the music scene. I ran into him a few weeks ago and he asked me if I had seen Candlebox lately. I told him about the shows I was going to and then I mentioned The Gracious Few, he was shocked that he had never heard of them. So I went to my car where I have my trusty stash and handed him a CD. I saw him last week and he said he absolutely LOVED it! So has everyone else I gave a CD to.
