SOLID GOLD Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 ok. so i was loaded tonight. trying to pack up to move home after graduating college. and i was listening to MG after i got back from the bar. Picked up In a Coma and read through it... In the "Thank you's" there is a thank you to Dale Earnhardt Jr. ... what's the deal? NASCAR sucks. I know NASCAR is (unfortunately) the largest spectator sport in the US but it's really really gay. Why does Matt thank Dale Earnhardt Jr.? ... if anything he should thank Dale Earnhardt Sr. for dying and proving how pointless NASCAR really is. Ooops, out of bounds? Oh well. He's from Canada and he's thanking a NASCAR driver over a hockey player?!? Please, please tell me that's a joke. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToadMan Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 He thanks a lot of people in those liner notes... In fact, for someone who hates Nascar so much, you seem to know enough about it to know about Dale Earnhardt... I wasn't really aware of him. Anyway, I don't know why he is thanked. Maybe it is simply a random name inserted to drive conspiracy freaks nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know about NASCAR because i live in America, and i know about Dale Earnhardt because of that. Knowing about NASCAR apart from either Earnhardt seems strange... and thanking either one of them in your album seems even stranger... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainRocket Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Matt is friends with Dale Earnhardt Jr. He is in the Anti-Pop video with Matt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anitanium Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Matt is friends with Dale Earnhardt Jr. He is in the Anti-Pop video with Matt. yeah get your facts straight before you start mouthing off Dale Jr. is a huge fan of matt's, so matt invited him to do the anti-pop video if you actually took the time to watch the commentary on the DVD on anti-pop, you wouldn't be posting such crap i agree that nascar sucks, but don't hate the players, hate the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sawgr Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 (edited) i also believe he gave matt that acoustic guitar which he was using on tour. btw, solid gold, get your head out of your fucking asshole. Edited April 30, 2006 by sawgr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvanlierop Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Also if you listen to Hopless from the recent edmonton show (I think it was this show) he mentions that he wrote hopless on a guitar given to him by Earnhardt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c0rl0 Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 NASCAR rocks. I'm actually watching the Talladega race as I write 8-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uglyredhonda Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Maybe Earnhardt's a nice guy who likes rock music? Matt's not the only one who's friends with him: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:DaveGrohlphoto.jpg I mean, I hate NASCAR as much as the next guy, but I'm not going to judge the guy solely for his career choice. Also if you listen to Hopless from the recent edmonton show (I think it was this show) he mentions that he wrote hopless on a guitar given to him by Earnhardt. Given how some people feel about that song, I'm not sure I'd use that info to support Earnhardt. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driftinginfluence Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 if you don't like Nascar that's fine, but you gotta give credit to anyone who can turn a corner going 180 mph, that takes major balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrs jesus Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 wow, this dude's a fucking moron, that's awesome. i had no idea that who an artist thanked in their liner notes was cause for such mass hysteria. anyway, this thread's going nowhere but down.
