As I Lay Dying Myspace "Hacked"

Band Photo: As I Lay Dying (?)

As I Lay Dying announced recently that their Myspace was hacked, and that someone heinously added two tour dates to their itinerary. No funny pictures, no changing the html, not even changing the band name creatively. The "hacker" just added two tour dates. This hacker, of course, is probably named "Tour Manager."

What's Next?

^ I'm glad you liked it. Yeah it's really "funny" for guys like me who are in a band and find out someone has practically ruined your myspace. I hope you are rolling on the carpet laughing.

I think your o/t whining on a message board about your precious Myspace page like anyone gives a sh** about you to be funny. AILD saying that they got hacked, and all this hacker did was add two tour dates to their shows, is funny, because they were hacked by the kindest, most gentle hacker in the whole world.

Since I remember before myspace to promote shows we would spendi hours at Kinkos then drive all over the place putting up flyers and handing out flyers at shows (do bands even use flyers anymore anywhere?)...does that make me "old school"
