Interview with Sean

There's a new (and long) interview with Sean!!

Among several questions, we selected the more importants:

So after this tour, are you going to be going out on another tour in the near future?

Right now we’re kind of labeling it like as an indefinite… We’re kind of having a break for a little bit. We’ve been touring for a long time and we don’t know what’s going on with the record label. I think Ryan’s going to move back east, so we’re all just going to take a little bit of a break.

Paper Walls came out last summer. I loved it. I thought it was one of the best records from last year and it should have been huge, but it didn’t really go anywhere. Why do you think that is?

(Laughs.) I don’t know. They’re all theories really. Part of it’s right place, right time. Part of it’s songs. Part of it’s other bands and their songs and whatever. I mean you look at who’s out there and there is musical talent involved, but it’s not like when you’re racing cars or when you’re playing basketball. At the end of the game, there’s a score. This is the better team or the better person or whatever. In music, it’s all subjective. Last year Paramore was fantastic. That girl can sing lights out, they’re young kids and they’re nice guys. I can’t say like we sing better than them or our song is better. It’s all subjective. The powers that be, or the mob and the masses, didn’t take to us as many people took to other artists.

22.

22, so you’re still maybe in touch with some of those people. But, you know, I’m 28. I’ll be 29 in like 10 days, so 13 years later. Even Ben Harper, who was my oldest friend – my brother and him played soccer – somewhere in the game of life he took a right when I took a left. That’s just kind of what happens.
