I watch the Best of Chic-A-Go-Go video (Chiago local cable access TV show) anevery time we get to the M.O.T.O. performance we both start singing that song "dance dance dance dance dance to the radio-oh". That's my entire exposure to this band I always love it.
Anyone seen that?

(Chic-A-Go-Go rules, by the way. Chicago is lucky.)

dance dance dance dance dance to the radio-oh

Isn't that "Transmission" by Joy Division?
I've never heard MOTO, but I will one day, and based on what peoples have told me, I vote NOT CRAP, even without hearing them, because trust is a wonderful thing.

I was finally able to find a MOTO CD (Kill MOTO, that is) and love it

Some of the best pop-punk since the Ramones, methinks

I can't get that friggin' 'dance dance dance dance to the radio-ah' song outta my head!

I can do that. I can do whatever I want.

MOTO rule, thanks to Robert Jay and Stickmantic for the turn on. I can't wait to see them play. Truly a treasure. It is sharing steady rotation with the new CRIME reissue. This is how we rock.

Please tell me you are not voting for Nader.


I'm not voting for Nader.

MOTO for President!

i'm sure it was coincidental but listen to "tastes just like a milkshake" and then "raised eyebrows" by the feelies. very similar songs, both very great

Voting "not crap" for M.O.T.O. is like pandering to the guy that won 5th place in the special olympics -- they deserve props, but it doesn't mean they are actually any good....

Got the "promo" version of their "Raw Power" CD in the mail a few weeks back -- what a load of crap. Total case of GGBB syndrome, after reading what y'all have stated about them (Great Guys, Bad Band).

Crap is crap, and M.O.T.O. is a big, steaming pile of it. But congrats on coming in fifth, guys!
