HELLO🎸🥰
My name is Gwen Moore and I’m a comedian in the LA area. I’m stoked to announce this Saturday I’m hosting a comedy show with emo heartthrob, Tyson Ritter, at Bar Bandini in Echo Park.
Doors 6, show 7. Tix are below!

Curious if there are young/new fans here. I’ve been a fan since 2005 (I’m 33 now) and I’ve noticed a lot of other bands from the era have gained a new following of young fans (MCR, FOB, P!ATD, etc.) but I wasn’t sure if AAR did too.
I have so much “memorabilia” and photos from 2006-now and I’m wondering if it’s worth sharing some of it. I was a “toastie” on the message board back in the day.
If you have questions about anything let me know!
1-2: Guitar picks (Both Hello Kittys and the one with the signature are Nick’s, the dream catcher one is Mike’s, not sure about the orange one).
3: AARmy dog tags - the silver ones are from 2006, I don’t remember when we got the others. And a random keychain.
4: Bracelets and the bottom two were to get into events.
5: AP magazines. Not sure if there are scans of these online but I can share the insides if anyone is interested.
6: TB4H and Tournado DVDs.
7: A few ticket stubs. I have more in a frame with ticket stubs from other bands. Signed laminate - Chris was not able to make this meet & greet.
8: Signed Zune mp3 player (kind of like an iPod) that I won in a Twitter livestream contest. I have videos of the guys announcing I won. Tyson totally butchered my name and Nick remembered me lol
9: Tag from Butter (Tyson’s short-lived clothing line), Soundcheck Party entry sticker thing (Tournado tour, 2006), mini magazine from Warped 2010 signed by Nick and Tyson.
10: CDs (two of them signed). My self-titled CD disappeared at some point and I haven’t bought the new one.
11: Setlist from Warped 2010. That “I <3 Nick” paper was stuck onto the setlist when I caught it, not sure who wrote that.
12: Poster from a tour with Taking Back Sunday.
13: More signed posters. This was from when WTWCD came out.
14: Another random WTWCD promo poster. The other one was from when they played at my college with Cobra Starship. I figured out the voting system allowed for unlimited votes so I’d like to believe my 1000s of votes got them booked 😆
15: Tournado zine type of thing. This thing is super cool! Not sure if there are scans of this online either but I’d love to share. I do not remember where I got this tbh.
16: Yet another signed poster lol.
17: A bunch of merch.
18: Comparison of my old AAR necklace vs. my new one they came out with.
19: One of my weirdest promo items - a mousepad. I kept it in a box for years and finally started using it for work recently.
I’m sure I have even more - I can share if I find anything else! I also have pictures from throughout the years I can definitely share. I’ve been to 17 shows and met them all quite a few times. They’re all super nice guys.
