On wednesday I will be hanging out with Alex Bars of TREOS during my radio show and was wondering if anyone had any good questions I could ask that they wanted me to possibly get answered for them?

"What was the writing process like for Between the Heart..?" I'd love to hear how they went about writing that record, one of my all-time favorites

How will Casey be included on the new songs? (or if anyone else knows the answer to this, I'd like to know)

Are you talking about incorporating him into live versions of The Earth Sings... songs, or do you mean NEW new songs? I hadn't heard of them mentioning anything about the latter, and my heart just jumped!

I'd love to hear how Alex has kept busy since they disbanded. I remember reading that he was going back to school, but I was always curious about what he'd be studying and where he planned to go with it. Also, how's Brendan enjoying family life at home? The rest of the dudes have been pretty easy to keep up with since they've been so musically active, but it's awesome to hear they're even playing a show this year.

I think Alex said he was going to UConn to study astronomy. That being said, I suddenly feel really weird for knowing that.

1. Where's the goddamn Lupo's DVD?
2. Will there be any Red Eye of Sorromon shows in the near future?
3. Will there be any more TREOS shows in the near (or distant) future?

I'm willing to bet he's not going to answer any of those straight haha.

If so, when can we expect to hear new music?

I'm going to Skatefest. Is that the last time they will be playing a show, or is this a full-on reunion?

I just meant all of the songs post-Casey, so yeah, the Earth Sings... songs

How long is their set gonna be at Skatefest?
Why don't you make a new album with Casey?
Will they play more shows this summer?


Will you post the transcript or recording of this interview somewhere on here?

Alright guys here is what I found out from Alex yesterday.

1. He is a commuter student at UCONN studying to get his bachelors in biology.
2. He has no idea what is going on with the final show DVD. He did his part which was playing and hasnt heard much about it since, however it will come out one day.
3. The set at skatefest will be about 15 songs long and Casey will be incorporated in the new songs. Alex said this will make the show much easier. Also Brian will be doing the show as well so he said it should be interesting to see how everything works out. They have band practice later this week so theyll know more about how things will go for the show then.
4. He said he has no clue about the future and whether or not the band will make more songs. He said he would love to but he wants to do some of the other things in his life first. Also everyone is at such different places that he doesnt even know if it would be possible, who knows though.
5. Writing synapse was a pretty easy project. He said that Casey in the studio was like watching a madman at work. He was just so gifted lyrically and musically that he could see where the song was going before anyone else. He said it was one of the greatest experiences of his life.

All in all it was a great interview. I will try and find the audio recording of it sometime within the next week and post it up here. Alex was a great guy and I am so glad I got to meet him. He was extremely well spoken and it was a real pleasure to chill with him and be his first interview in the past 2 years. I highly suggest that if you live in the New England area that you should go to skatefest its going to be an epic time.

I have met a lot of guys in bands, but honestly Alex was one of the nicest. He was a real great guy and honestly you cant judge a book by its cover. I dont think you realize how big of a part Alex plays in the band.

i've met them all too man many times and i know he is and it would never happen. i just suppose every day i saw him he had a bad day lol

im not talking shit or anything just seems like they all might be ready to get back together but he wants to finish school which is totally understandable just as brandon left to be a father. skatefest is in 5 days and i wanna go and hear them announce a cd, tour, getting back together anything lol so im just drawing up ridiculous scenario's in my head

I love the Caps, but the Flyers are my home team so I'll always cheer for them. Carcillo is one of my favorite players.
