Gene does a solo post on Tuesday's talking music so Ashlee gets full control to pick three albums on Three Tune Tuesday over here. I pick a song Of same record her tune is from. I actually knew this band (Midtown) I saw them live a few times in high school opening up for other bands. Gotta be honest I remember making out when they were playing at a concert when I was in 11th grade. Anyway So Ashlee picked a tune off each of all three Midtown records 2000/2002/2004 releases.
Let’s Get Into It!
First album “Save The World, Lose The Girl” was released in 2000. Ashlees tune is the song Let Go & Gene picks the song Just Rock And Roll. Gene - I gotta admit as pop pop and lil corny punk as these guys were it’s catchy tunes. I still my opening pick!

The second Midtown album was release was titled “Living Well Is The Best Revenge” relesed in 2002 and was on a major label this time (Interscope) through a deal where they still had to put old labels name on it. Pretty much this album is very much like the first. Poppy rock or some would say pop-punk. It’s catchy tunes and it was mostly females at the shows once they headlined off this second album. Gene went and can confirm! Gene picks the song “Become What You Hate” & Ashlee picks the song “Like A Movie”

Next Up!
Well the title “Forget What You Know” released on a new label (Sony) after being dropped by previous was not a mistake or clever title. It was literal! Fans many of them hated it. They ditched there entire sound and kinda tried to go more indie rock kinda vibe. Some fans liked it but I remember this clear as day! But some good songs and we picked them bot!

Since Midtown only had three albums there aren’t any bonus tunes! But we’ll edit something extra in if we have time. If not hope you enjoyed!
Ashlee picked another tune from the first record for a bonus! Enjoy!
