how old were you

[claud182]

when u got into this awesome band!

id say i heard about them like a year ago but i got into them more this year.. im a teen

[double]

14ish?

if i didn't get into the strokes like 2 years prior, i swear kol would have helped me hit puberty.

[rosalee123]

Lets see, I am 21 now and have liked them since 2002 so maybe about 17 years old.

[myblackthumbnail]

I got into them around 2003, so I was.........34.

I burned a KOL cd for a friend of mine who I see about every other month. He has never called me at home in all the years I have known him. I gave him the cd when he was in for a haircut on Tuesday. When I got home Thursday there was a message on my machine from him saying the latest KOL cd was in his top five for the year. From a guy with his musical credentials, that was HUGE! I guess we got another convert.

I am 19, so about 15... I was REALLY into the strokes a year before that. Haha... Oh teenage girlzzzz

[newtonab]

mmm, 15? I'm 19 now

BlackThumbnail, thats great! I love hearing things like that. Especially for the kings. What do you think the odds are they become as big in America as they are in Europe? My guess is they won't, but thats only because I don't want them to get the "MTV type following".

Either way, feel like they'll be known/remembered for a while...

[mynameisdominic]

12.. no joke, im quite young for this forum.

[evilincarnate]

I had to get out a calculator to do the math...yeah, I'm that bad. Anyway, I was 16 when I got into KOL. I'm 19 now.

I was 90, back in the day...I had to walk two miles up hill (both ways dumb ass!) in the snow, just to see those whipper-snappers play a few songs, and I have two plastic hips and a fucking oxygen tank strapped to my back. Talk about commitment to the band!

[untiemybinds]

I was 18. I only got into them in march of last year...

If any band goes with 70s porn music, it's KOL, what with the facial hair and all.

[hotpeacekid]

have you seen that interview where Caleb talks about how 'porno kinda ruined the mustache, but they're heavily influenced by porno' bla bla bla. I think it was the nardwar or whatever, but it was really funny, and you reminded me of it

[evilincarnate]

haha, yeah...Nardwar cracks me up. So does Caleb. And porn for that matter.

[boe]

I got into the Kings right when ASH came out... and that was 2 years ago. So, I aws 16.

[iwantkolsbabies]
