Cap’n Jazz was a big deal to me. Alot of people might not “feel” them, but i think they undeniably were a really big part of the GOOD aspects of the very small emo scene that was awesome. Not only that, but they were kids. I started bands because I heard Cap’n Jazz, knew they were kids like me, and wanted to rock out just as hard as them. They were emotional in not a whiney way, and if it is...
