Joe Garvey: Most of us went into New York to do a ton of press stuff. New York is too fast paced for me personally.

Yeah, we did. Yeah, that was cool. This week has been fun. We have been going back to some of our favorite venues.

Oh yeah, we have been here a few times.

Oh, good. Yeah, we finally started to party with a few of the guys. They are awesome. So we kind of had a run-in with them a few years ago. Our tour man got time, I don’t know how it went down, but a couple of the guys wanted to kick his ass, so we kind of got started out on the wrong foot. So it was the last time we saw them. So this run, we didn’t know how everyone was gonna react but, no, it’s awesome. They give a good show and get the crowd pumped up for us, for sure.

Awesome. Yeah, we are playing four new songs tonight, including the single. It’s just been really cool.

IIt’s still [in] pretty early stages, but for sure festivals and state fairs are already starting to come in, and we are not sure if we are gonna sign up to or around those, or what we are gonna do yet. Or what kind of bands are gonna be available at that time.

Yeah, I know. They are huge. It’s between that and like the casino thing.

Of course, I’m sure they can afford to make bands good to come in and play.

There’s talks of it, we actually just got off of an acoustic run. Kind of a bare-bones tour. We never done it before, and we got at really good reaction. So that was one of the ideas maybe we will kick around next time we do it. Maybe to do like a live DVD off of that or something like that. I thought it was a really clever way to preview all the new stuff, and you know kind of strip down, so everybody can really just hear the basics of it.

This one? Uh, we are done Sunday, and we’ll be home for the holidays and most of January, then we’ll head back out after that. So we just have like three shows left.

Yeah, it just varies all over the country. Yeah, mostly the Midwest but even in this area, too, everyone seems to be starting to rock and roll, and the crowds are just awesome.

I’m a little bit but actually I was more kind of metal guy actually. But with Cody the drummer and a few of the other guys being country fans, they got me into that whole scene like that.

Well, you know I liked Slash while I as growing up, so I think collectively as a band, kind of Guns and Roses, so…but I got more into the Ozzy than Motley Crue.

Uh, no I never go to meet him, but we have been on tour with the Motley Crue guys for a while, so that was a lot of fun.
