we're at The Tonight Show!
i can't believe it. last time we were here (which was in New York, then) i was hoarse and sick with some kind of sinus infection and our band wasn't in the best of shape. this time, i am sick - again - with the same thing. hoarse and feeling a bit discouraged. BUT, as a band, we feel awesome. i'm so stoked to be playing this show and to get our tour kicked off this week. it's about time, right?
and with the record coming out, all the reviews have been piling up. we've never been that band. the one that gets the amazing reviews and that critics are stoked about. it's nice to have some of em on our side this time. i mean, if the entire world hated 'brand new eyes', we would still be stoked on it.. but like i said, it feels good that everything has been so positive.
what did you guys think of the MTV pieces we did back home? they were a lot of fun to shoot. obviously, it wasn't much work. we just did our thing and there were some cameras there. i got to show off my sick bike and my sweet car, Miss Anne. she's a looker. it was just nice to finally be able to show people who we are from a different angle. if anything, with the new album and all that it entails, people won't have much trouble understanding our band. after two records and hundreds of thousands of millions of miles, we're relaxing into whatever this could be becoming. i am enjoying the fact that it CAN actually be easy and entertaining to entertain other people. does that make sense? we've never lost passion for what we do but there was definitely a period of time where it was hard. this is a whole new game. and i love it. with all of it comes a little bit of new hair. only for a time. i'm tired of getting stuck in a corner... i'm excited to be nervous again about my hair. but anyways... new subject... until you all see it tonight. i wanted it to be a shocker anyways haha.
i gotta go! i just realized. time for hair and make up....
see you guys soon!
and let's do this again soon, too.
