Dave: "It's home you know? You recognize everyone"
Matt: "You can sleep in your own bed too"
Sam: When are you guys going to be working on a new album?
Matt: "It's hard to say, we've written a couple of new songs now, nothing we're ready to play or anything yet...just gonna tour on this album until it's dead and then start on a new one. We've been slowly writting here and there so, I really can't say, who knows when something like that will happen."
Dan: What have been some really cool tours so far for you guys?
Matt: "They've all been cool..."
Dan: Any bands you would've just been really looking forward to touring with...
Matt: "This one..."
Dave: "This is the one.."
Matt: "This is the tour where we're just psyched to see every band every night and everyone is cool, there are great shows...this is kinda our target crowd where we wanna hit."
Dave: "In Flames is definately the most like us, as far as who we've toured with."
Sam: What do you guys think of the label merger between Century Media (their label) and Nuclear Blast?
Dave: "I don't really know much about it, all you can say is we'll see what happens because that's totally an unpredictable thing as far as how things are going to work out. I don't think anyone knows, even the labels don't know how this is going to work you know?"
Dave: "I just hope it's not too much for them to handle, spreading themselves to thin or something like that..we'll see."
