    It shocks me that there is not an O.A.R. thread in this forum. As a huge O.A.R. fanatic, they are the reason I even know and have come to like the Sixers. Maybe it's for my love of the band, but I feel that a newer audience comes from them and I don't think that thats a bad thing at all. I know and talk to many other O.A.R. fans on their board and the Sixers are talked about quite a bit. Out of the 8 times I have seen O.A.R. in the last year and a half or so, at least 2 times I saw them with the Sixers and one time, SK made an appearance playing harmonica on Hey Girl. I mean, even Jerry from O.A.R. was on the Big Band Small Stages tour. It's deffintly clear and evident the impact that O.A.R.'s success has had on the Sixers. Not to mention, Marc was featured on Glassjaw Boxer on Big Easy.

    I know most of you already know much of that, I just wanted to stress my thoughts and opinions on the impact O.A.R. has had on the Sixers.

    ** As a side note, the first time I saw the Sixers was when MikelParis opened for them in Providence last February, and yet again another memeber, well two if you include MikelParis was there. Benj the bass player was their as well. Just to show the support SK6ers are getting from them.

    I share the OAR love as well! (I think that maybe they weren't on this thread before because they almost seem like a given - at least to me!) Although I don't listen to them much lately, they are always a good group to fall back on when you want a song that just hits you and puts you in a good mood. I love how they support the SK6ers and I believe both bands share a lot of the same fans. I'm still waiting for the day that OAR/SK6ers tour nearby so I can actually see them together! I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope it happens sometime soon!

    Melissa can attest to this, I Love OAR! They are just an iconic band of my college years (along with the Sixers, of course). I have gone to 2 concerts of theirs and they are been amazing. It kills me that I haven't seen them yet with SK6ers but hopefully that will change soon. I don't think there is anything much better than singing "crazy game of poker" at the top of your lungs with some good friends.
