Emo Pillow Fights
Winston-Salem has proven to be the relative breeding ground of emo bands in North Carolina throughout the 2000's. And though this strange, somehow popular, and in most cases annoying musical genre that bases much of its sound around the fashion of japanese anime hairdos and post hardcore punk, tries to come off as tough and rugged, it has begun showing its softer side. In this case, popular W-S band Yearling has posted images of the band having a pillow fight (a presumed initiation of their most recent band mate) on their myspace page with the opportunity for their fans to write a humorous caption. The winner gets a free copy of their new album, a t-shirt, and an autographed poster. Needless to say, this contest is turning out more to be entertainment for heterosexual males such as myself, rather than the assumed reactions the band was hoping for. The contest ends December 1st. This should be interesting...
