See You After The Show
See You After The Show (formerly known as "Just What I Want" or "So Familiar") is an identified pop-punk song by the New York based band Fizzlewink. The song was allegedly discovered on a Motorola VE240 in the woods by Reddit user pax307.
Background
On May 10, 2024, the song was first posted to r/Lostwave by Reddit user pax307, who claims to have found the song on an Motorola VE240 that they found in the woods.[1] They extracted the full song from the phone on May 13, 2024 and provided the original file allegedly from the phone's SD card.[2][3]
If the story is not a hoax, the earliest that the song could have been created is 2008, when the Motorola VE240 was released.[4]
Discovery
On April 7, 2025, Discord users AzureBlast and Rayzox57 identified the song as "See You After the Show" by Fizzlewink (an early iteration of the pop-punk band Matchbook Romance), using software WerZatSong to find the song.[5]
Theories
Possible Hoax
There is overwhelming evidence that the post is a hoax, and that pax307 made up his story of finding the song. The OP's story about finding a fully charged phone in the woods with nothing but the song on it has been viewed as suspicious by many.[6] The mp3 extracted from the phone was simply titled "song.mp3," which is unusual for a song downloaded from Motorola's built-in browser, and the quality is unreasonably low for a phone of that era.[7]
In his follow-up post, pax307 included a screenshot of the contents of the phone's SD card. The screenshot indicates that the audio file was transferred to the SD card from a computer, as it shows it on the root of the SD card rather than in the "my_sounds" or "my_music" folder. When asked for updates on the song one month after his original post, pax307 claimed that his friend misplaced the SD card and is unable to recover the phone's contents.[6]

| (Verse 1)
I can’t wait to see you, after the show Build up the guts to talk to you, I just don’t know Maybe we can have some time and do something that’s on your mind I’m not likely to say no (Pre-Chorus) Just tell me where you wanna go If I can see you smile We sing, hangin' for a while You and me If I can see you smile We sing, hangin' for a while (Chorus) It's so familiar It's just what I want, just what I want To see you after the show I can hardly wait Just what I want, just what I want To see you after the show See you after the show (Verse 2) And now the lights are low, and it’s time for us to go I see you outside, waiting for your ride This is my last chance to tell you what’s on my mind Don’t wanna let you go, don’t wanna leave the show without you (Pre-Chorus) If I can see you smile We sing, hangin' for a while You and me If I can see you smile We sing, hangin' for a while (Chorus) It's so familiar It's just what I want, just what I want To see you after the show I can hardly wait Just what I want, just what I want To see you after the show (Guitar Solo) It's so familiar It's just what I want, just what I want To see you after the show I can hardly wait Just what I want, just what I want To see you after the show It's so familiar It's just what I want, just what I want To see you after the show I can hardly wait Just what I want, just what I want To see you after the show |
