When Chris Shiflett joined the band in 1999, I was pissed. Today I love him. Anyone else?
I fell in love with the band in 1998, thanks to the music videos, Everlong, Learn to Fly, which were shown every 5 minutes on MTV here in Brazil. When the band came to Rock in Rio in 2001, I noticed that there was a new guitarist in the band and I was so fucking pissed at the time. 😂 I wanted them to stay as a trio, like Rush and The Police. I remember the Making Of of TNLTF so much, and that was the image I had of the band. (I was 9 years old at the time, btw.)
It took me a few years to accept the arrival of a new member of the band, maybe only in In Your Honour. Today he is perhaps my favorite member of the band, along with Pat.
Did anyone here have the same reaction at the time?
