The Official Bowling for Soup Thread

[Ivan May]

Say what you will about Avril Lavigne, at least her attempts at alternative rock sold millions, even if critics totally dissed her music.

But I was a huge fan of Bowling For Soup growing up (I was in first grade when 1985 was released) and I’m surprised that they’re not as mentioned as other pop punk bands from that era.

What most everybody remembers this band for is that they composed and sang the theme song for the popular children’s tv series Phineas and Ferb (a show I watched religiously as a child.)
They also did a cover of I Melt With You by Modern English for the soundtrack of the Disney film Sky High (complete with a kazoo solo)

 

Jaret is a very good guitar player. He never gets enough credit, given that he is the source of Ernie Ball Music Man income!

But if any of you are fans of Bowling For Soup post your opinions here. Thanks
