Back from Milan and Punkadeka Festival, so I get into the trip and the food first. Then your calls. A listener in Athens asks if you can be a real fan of a band you have never seen live. A caller who watched our Warped Tour set asks about my voice, so I go through sleep, hydration, and how I prep before a show. Hannah in Carolina asks how my songwriting has changed.
Plus a letter from a fan in Italy, and Jake in Texas turning a room in his house into a free venue called the Tile Room.
mxpx.com has tour dates. Orlando Warped Tour November 15. Australia December 3, 4 and 5 for Good Things Festival in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. New album, Living in the Chaos, is coming.
