The feud I believe is with Alternative Press, not Absolute Punk, I believe. I may be wrong though.

We've been working on that for a while now, it's a really undertaking. We want to do a nice book to go along with it full of fliers, pictures, etc. Just want to make sure we do it right.

You should have seen me and Jordan trying to figure out how you sign in for this chat session. You know that scene in Zoolander where they're hitting the computer like primates?

Awesome

'I like Will Smith's older stuff, the demo's. He kind of sold out with the whole Fresh Prince thing.'

Hahaaa.

How long did it take you to perfect that amazing slow motion run in the "I Was A Teenage Anarchist" video? I love it!

I trained for months on a really slow treadmill.

It wouldn't be the first time they bit our style.

There's no way he is serious

You are correct. I am dumb!

Like what? Are they douches in person or something?

I'm not gonna give any details, but I've learned to respect honest, nice musicians who are in successful bands a lot more.

Subject: Re: Chat with Tom on AP.net at 4 pm ET Thu May 20, 2010 6:14 pm

please elaborate. also, how does one get a job at SideOne?

Subject: Re: Chat with Tom on AP.net at 4 pm ET Thu May 20, 2010 9:44 pm

This was awesome! Lex texted me about it while I was at work and I was all confused as to why he was working with the shitheads at AP. I forgot about Absolute Punk. I enjoyed reading the answers.

Does Tom seriously love Hugh Grant movies though?
