Hello?

I think I'm in the right place, right?

How does it feel being a dad?
(Oh, and if it's not too much to ask, what's her name?)
:]

It's amazing! All the cliches are true. My daughters name is Evelyn.

They actually took them down a couple months ago.

I stole them all from Madonna

Did tom petty's full moon fever influence white crosses? What's your favorite song off that album?

Yes, it did, really heavily in fact. The song "High Pressure Low" I was going for a "Running Down A Dream" type vibe, a good driving song. "Full Moon Fever" was the first cd I ever bought.

Who's Gift Certificate?

How did getting Franz Nicolay to play with you guys come about? Is it just a one time thing?

Well, we've had a keyboard/multi-instrumentalist with us for the past couple tours. I'm a huge fan of Franz, both solo and all the bands he's been a part of. I'm not sure how long he'll be touring with us but it's awesome to have him on board. We're practicing with him in about an hour.

I know Franz has a new record of his own coming out soon and I'm sure that he'll be touring in support of that. As long as he wants to play with us he's welcome, we're just taking it one tour at a time though.

Lehigh and Bob Dylan are on the special edition version of the album. We only demo'd Hot Shots. Not sure if the demo's will ever come out, maybe?

We're hoping to be back in Canada on a headline tour this September. Fingers crossed.

Not in the slightest. We knew it was only a matter of time once copies where sent out to radio and press. Bottom line is that as long as people listen I don't care how they get their hands on it.

We toured with the Blood Brothers a couple years back, they're friends for sure. I'm a huge fan.

I don't know if you'll remember me but... I talked to you at the merch table during your show at The Culture room in Ft. Lauderdale FL.

I was the blonde kid who told you my story about how I got into from my brother and everything.
I'm even in the fan appreciation ( which I HIGHLY appreciated! ) video for I Was A Teenage Anarchist twice. Both time crowd surfing ( :30 & 1:13 )

Where did you learn to play guitar?

I've been playing guitar since I was 8. I took lessons when I was younger but never really enjoyed it. I learned everything I know (which is limited) from playing along to records.

Again, as long as people are listening it's a good thing.
