Interviewing the band

SHIT!
Can you remember the first time you guys heard a room full of people singing the lyrics to your songs back to you?
Jamie- Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada

Would you like me to include the SHIT! haha. It adds a nice dramatic effect..

Well that was my reaction to the original post, sheer excitement.

Oh I thought you were just really stoked about your question.

Well I am stoked about my question, and all of the others too! What's your question lex, or have you already posted it and I've overlooked it?

I have a few I think, but I'll narrow it down. I'm asking James a question though, because James is the best. I just haven't thought of it yet..haha.

Is there any particular tour or event you remeber playing that really inspired you to keep going strong and start touring non stop? Ross from Arkansas

Besides listening to their own music every time they pratice or play a show what are some of their other bands they listen to. either in their leisure time or perhaps sittin on a plane/ bus.

Brandon Chicago, IL

Is there any truth to the reissues of Demos or the Thanksgiving Acoustic Show DVD?

yeah ask that one

can you please ask them why Miami, when it could have been almost any other major city. Or was it just because of the ballot issues florida had during that election?...

Sean, Miami

what made you decide to stop wearing baseball caps when you played? why did you wear them in the first place?

I have another Question lol...

Thomas from South bend Indiana writes:

to tom: have you been writing for your next album any?

to james: whats your favorite song to play?

To warren: do you burb and make gross noises at the dinner table (according to a Earlyer Inteveriw of tom)

To Andrew: whats the hardest song for you to play?

These are both for the entire band...

1. If you could choose to tour with any three bands, what three would you want to share the bill with?
2. Is there a chance we could see an increase of acoustic sets prior to the main sets during your next headlining tour? I loved seeing you guys play at the record store in Nashville before your show in November of '05, and I'm sure I'm not alone.

I didn't realize we'd get so many good ones so fast, so for now that's it. I'm going to email them soon, sorry for those people who didn't get the chance to ask one, but I guess that's your fault for not being a bum who sits on the computer all day.

Can you tell us who's will get asked by chance?

You'll see when the answers come

You totally edited the post from what it said, haahaha

I don't know what you're talking about.

I've got my eye on you.....

for Tom: In some interviews you've said that the songs on 'Searching for a Former Clarity' rely on eachother. I've also read some people's arguements saying that 'Searching' is a concept album. Did you intend it to be? And if so what's your interpretation of it?

Katy
Visalia, Ca


P.S. if you guys haven't read some people's interpretation of that album, you should check out this link. It's really interesting.

how much do you love doing shows/meeting fans/ being on the road?
what would you do if one day all your musical talents disappeared i.e. day job?

that took me forever to think of.

Wouldn't the album being a concept album sort of imply the tracks "rely" on eachother, in a sense? I may be thinking totally off.

I miss Jimbo.

yeah, but he hasn't come out and actually said, "yes it was intended to be a concept album." and it would just be interesting to see if what he intended it to be lines up with that one theory on that link.

What happened to "this song never had a name"? Did it just not end up the way you wanted it? Is there/will there be a studio version of it?

Ross, U.K.

Oi, I'm Ross, UK!

I need some time to think about this, but I'll post again later, fo' sho.

Hey! I was the first to have the name "Ross" on these boards. You should change back. I don't care if you're a mod

To avoid confusion, maybe I should be Ross, Wales, U.K.
