I feel like my only best friend is me and I don't even like me that much.
No more writing here anymore.
Formspring got boring in a day and I don't remember my password.
Bye bye blog and other things like it.

Interview questions and answers
1. You guys are in the process of writing and producing a new sampler, how’s it going?
Dave: it’s going very well actually; we just finished a couple of songs. We’re working out the wrinkles. We’re making a lot of progress putting a lot of late nights in. it’s been lots of fun.
2. How is it different then Palace? What was Palace like?
Dave: Well palace took a long time cause there were so many schedule restrictions, we were recording one day a week for two hours. We were really happy with the way it came out and the new stuff is going to be a lot different. We’re expanding on what we can do. There’s definitely some changes, some good ones.
3. What is your writing process like?
Dave: for us I think its all about feeling it, we kinda have to feel things out. If something doesn’t feel right, we’ll move on. Brett comes in with a weeks worth of ideas and we’ll move in the direction of what we like the best and we’ll feel around with what we like the best. It takes a couple of sessions but as long as we’re happy.
4.Worst. Dinner Guest. Ever. What is it about exactly? The title doesn’t seem to match the lyrics.
Dave: no not at all, most of the titles don’t match the lyrics, don’t know why that’s just the way they are. If you really think about it, it does make sense. I hate the winter more that anything, its about how much I hate winter and I want it to be summer, we wrote it in the winter.
5.I know you guys have switched members around since the band has first started. How has your lineup changed your style or changed you guys if any?
Dave: I don’t know if it’s changed our style because we really have the same common goal in what we want to do, its just changed the way we write because people come in and out and we have to go with the flow. In forms of changing us, we always seem to have that one member that’s always iffy and theres the core of me, sean, tim and brett and theres always that thing that we have to find that set piece.
6. You guys are going on tour in January, how do you feel about it?
Dave: I think collectively we are all very very excited, its kinda the opportunity we’ve all been waiting for really. I think we’re all all on the same page, we all want to do this full time. Its going to be a lot of fun. It’s a good chance to go out there and have fun playing music. We expect to meet new people and get out to palce we haven’t been before, its always fun living in a van.
7.Since you’ve been on tour before, how is the crowd different from home then on tour?
Dave: it all depends on where you go. We love being home cause its where all our friends are but when you go out into other places esp down south, everyone is a lot more into it. People kinda are accepting. More willing to give things a chance, even if they don’t like it they will still watch.
8.If you could choose right now, what bands would you love to tour with?
Dave: I don’t know I mean I could only say bands that we would love to see. I could see four years strong everyday and not get sick of them. New found glory and glassjaw would be great too.
9.Who are your influences?
Dave: we have so many, I think just about everything really. From just about anything, we all listen to a wide variety of music and incorporate it. I guess for me I basically grew up on Michael Jackson, Glassjaw, Taking Back Sunday.
10.Have you had the chance to work with any? How woulod you feel?
Dave: no we haven’t had the chance, Michael Jackson is deceased but if I ever did get the chance I don’t think I could say anything, I would be in awe the whole time. I would try to take in as much as possible and just learn from them.
11.Anything new that can be told?
Dave: we’ll we will be going on tour in January, we will be recording new songs and we will have lots of surprises. I’d say hopefully come spring we will have things good.
