    Just saw them tonight in ATL. They still rock, dammit. They all but blew the roof off of a small venue (Smith’s Olde Bar). And you could tell they were still having the time of their lives.

    My husband mentioned Lit was on the lineup for a festival he was looking and I was so excited to see they were still playing. I just thought they were done and never looked them up. I did some digging tonight and found their country BS and then found your video. Boo to their country stuff. I LOVED their 2nd and 3rd albums so much. I got my hopes up thinking they were still making GOOD music lol.

    Lit is one of the best live bands ive ever seen, and ive seen a lot of live bands. Their music is made to be played live. I don't mind that they have changed music and fads throughout the years. They are song writers. They can do anything. Its about the music, not the look of fad. Of the Popoff brothers want to write a dam reggae song id listen to it, because you can bet it would be a pretty dam good reggae song. They are very talented song writers. Great band. Ive loved Lit ever since I saw them live in NC back in 2000

    It was Ajay and Kevin who met in school, and started Razzle, Ajay was drummer and they had another friend who was the singer. Then bit later Ajay became singer and Allen joined the band....soon later Ajays brother Jeremy joined. All this while in high school. Jeremy and Allen were already out of h.s. being the oldest. I just came across this and tripping out on it kinda. Lol haveing been friends with them since h.s. i wonder if they have seen this lol. Its been a wild ride for the past 35 yrs i guess its been already. Just saw them last week..was an awesome show! 🤘🏼

And met a lot of musicians. Jonny 2 Bags(SocialD) Chris Shiflett (FooFighter) Tom Dumont (NoDoubt) to name a few. Best few years of my life.

There 3rd album always struck me as an interesting change in style. They had so much popularity off of their 2nd…. The change in sound for the 3rd seemed bold.

They were no worse that amy other alternative ish band of the time. Put them on the american pie soundtrack and they would probably still be playing summerland fests or something.

    Wait a minute you compared Less Than Jake to Lit?? I'm sorry but I'll have to disagree with you there. Less Than Jake was a Ska band that to the untrained may have a surface resemblance to Lit, but is and was a solid band. Less Than Jake inspired a TON of bands that became pretty big. Lit was never that influential. Otherwise, great video!

    Why do so many people think they weren't influential? That whole sound in the late 90's came from them, but everyone thinks it was blink or sum 41. Ajay himself even stated this at a live show (LIT - looks like they were right live 2007). I swear the worst part of being a lit fan is everyone thinks they are rip offs, but they're Popoffs lol. And I've already had the debate with a bunch of friends and had to show them the discography and how the songs they put out or recorded predate the bands that everyone thinks or accredit to starting that sound. Please just trust me. Man it hurts every time I have to explain this 😪.

    This band is opening for Buckcherry at the free concert this coming up weekend where I live. I plan to skip them and just show up in time for Buckcherry . Also I laughed so hard when you said “Korn sucks”. Back when these bands were popular I hated Korn but all my friends loved them. Then I heard a song on the radio one day I thought was by Korn so I told everyone I found one song I like. When I started singing the lyrics they all laughed and said that’s not Korn that’s Disturbed lol I’m like no wonder I liked it 😂. I’m still a Disturbed fan it’s still a joke with me and my friends whenever that song comes on everyone yells “ that’s the only Korn song Joanna likes”. Which causes confusion new people 😂. I am a fan of the song My own misery but that’s the only one so just can’t sit through a whole set for one song that’s somewhat bearable sorry Lit but I will be rocking out to all lit up again with Buckcherry 😂
