Are they going to release another single or is the record label just stupid enough to not push this record at all?

While being on tour have they had any chance to put some thought into what their next album might sound like? Will it continue with the change F.W.Y.K. had or will they go back to the "Living well is the best revenge" style.

I saw them in Baltimore in June, and the lights had just gone out. So Gabe and Heath decided to come on stage and play a couple of acoustic songs until the lights came back on. So with nothing but emergency lights around and the power out, they took requests and of course "Knew It All Along" was shouted from the balconies. So they played that one, and then decided to play Manhattan off of the new album. Manhattan was brilliant and everytime I hear that song I'll remember that dark club. Gabe has a voice like no other, and it was one magical moment.

Have the guys really been getting to write the kind of stuff they want or have they been at all sttifled dealing with the creative controls/pressures of their record company and contract?

Ask them about sex, drugs, and rock 'n roll. Which do they prefer first, second, and third?

The power went out in Mass at the Palladium half way through their set during the Matchbook Romance tour and they played a couple acoustic songs..."Knew it all along" was so good. It's too bad that they had to end with a short set.

How many stitches has Heath gotten from Gabe hitting him with his bass? Heath is such a trooper!

It was Tyler that got hit with the bass.

They said something about shooting the Empty Like the Ocean video in like October. When do we get to see it?

I want to see them play in the Tampa Bay area again sometime soon. Hopefully more than a 35 minute set this time though. They kicked so much ass, I just wish their set was longer...

Columbia is stupid enough....I love em, but they've failed Midtown, in my opinion.

Agreed. I never heard Give it Up on the radio once in Tampa Bay, and that song would have kicked ass in terms of bringing them some radio love...
