Much thanks to Chris for taking the time to do the interview.

Robbie: What are some of your favorite bands to play with?
Chris: I would say the Plain White T’s, Lucky Boys Confusion, Jinxpack, Knockout, The Dog and Everything. There's a shit load of bands like for real, there's a lot of guys. Fuckin Starstruck, Fall Out Boy, and I think that’s good. There’s just so many.

Robbie: What’s your favorite venue?
Chris: It’s gotta be the fuckin Metro dude. The Metro’s awesome.

Robbie: What’s your favorite song to play live?
*a bunch of people walk out of Pat’s apartment to go help Stubhy from Lucky Boys Confusion up the stairs because he’s on crutches because he jumped off a roof. After all of that we both just forgot about that question and moved on*

Robbie: What’s the craziest thing you’ve done on tour?
Chris: I don’t know if I’m allowed to say. We kinda say that what goes on the road, stays on the road ya know? Its pretty much just a lot of drunken stupidness like offending people and lots of other bad stuff. *laughs*

Robbie: What’s your most embarrassing moment?
Chris: Mine or the band’s?
Robbie: Yours.
Chris: Probably tonight when I stage dove into no one. *laughing*

Robbie: *laughing* What’s the last CD you bought?
Chris: The last CD I bought was ‘The Artist in the Ambulance’ by Thrice. It’s the best CD in the world. Did you get it?
Robbie: Yeah, it's awesome.
*people start coming up the stairs with Stubhy*
Chris: Oh my god. Are they seriously carrying his ass?

Robbie: Do you have any girl stories?
Chris: Girl stories?…..I’m going to keep my girl stories silent because I’d make a lot of people upset if I said mine outloud.
*Stubhy finally makes it up the stairs*
Stubhy: Thank you much!
Chris: *screaming for Pat from one life* Pat come help me with this interview!
*Pat comes and says nothing except "Hi."*
Chris: Stubhy come do this with me *Stubhy walks over to us*

Robbie: If you guys weren’t in a band, what do you think you’d be doing?
Chris: I don’t wanna think about that.
Stubhy: Going to school, trying to make a life, or maybe doing interviews with bands.
Chris: Trying to be in a band *laughs* I dunno. Fucking someone whos in a band maybe?

Robbie: What are your plans for the future?
Stubhy: They’re (One Life) going to be playing a show with us (Lucky Boys Confusion) on September 4th at Otto’s in DeKalb. Now I have to pee so I’m outta here. By the way, I like fucking everybody’s moms!
Chris: We wanted to record this month its just we don’t have the money so for now we’re just going to work on writing new songs, come up with the money to record, and just keep promoting our 2 song demo until we can find money to record.

Robbie: How did you guys meet?
Chris: Actually some of us were in a band called Close Enough before this. We were this silly punk rock type band. Then we ended up meeting Eric and Steve who were in a band called Backdrop. We had played with them before and knew them for a while and then our bands kind of broke up at the same time. By then we were all really good friends so we just said hey, let’s start a fuckin band together.

Robbie: What color is your toothbrush?
Chris: It’s white as a matter of fact. It’s a sonicare electric toothbrush.

Robbie: Who are some of your influences?
Chris: Green Day, Thrice, Bad Religion, Alkaline Trio. Those are like my four favorite bands of all time. I know Steve Mueller (from One Life) is into a lot of silly emo bands like the Goo Goo Dolls and Matchbox 20. Real big Goo Goo Dolls fan.

Robbie: So I hear you guys are cooler than George W. Bush?
Chris: Yeah we are. We are so cooler than George W. fuckin Bush and his drunk ass daughers. I’ll sneak them under the table and smack em. *laughs*

Robbie: Do you have any final words?
Chris: I rule. No I’m just kidding. I don’t know. I’m a terrible interview person so you probably shouldn’t be asking me this but go check out the website and check out our songs.
