"Action & Action" - The Get Up Kids

Band: The Get Up Kids
Album: Something to Write Home About
Released:  September 21, 1999
Home Town:  Kansas City, MO
Why is it on here?:  This album spent weeks in my CD player in the early 2000s and its just as good today as it was then.  The Get Up Kids influenced bands like Fall Out Boy, Blink 182 and several other bands you'd like to punch in the face.  At any rate, this is a great song and the next time you see Pete Wentz walking his chihuahua on the cover of US Weekly you can blame these guys.
