JUST SO EVERYONE KNOWS...
If you watch the episode of So Random that we play on, you’re gonna hear the album version of Young Forever. For those types of TV shows, they overdub live performances with audio tracks so that it makes things easier in post production or something. I don’t really know. Basically the same thing as a music video, but on ze television show. Not really my thing, but whatevzzz. If you...

Saying hi
For anybody wondering about TRS meet and greets on the All Time Low tour, this is what’s up: none of the bands are able to do signings or anything at their merch tables. With that being said, I will tweet where and when I plan on signing every night shortly after we get done playing. It will be at the very end of the night after ATL plays. I wanna try to say hi to as many of you guys as I...

I always get excited when I get to come home, even if I haven’t been away for that long. lately we’ve been doing shows only on the weekends, flying around, acoustic stuff, and i’ve been working on new music out in LA. it’s always a good feeling getting to sleep in my own bed. i’ve also come to find that being home doesn’t feel much different than being away....
I thought the VMA’s were good this year. You?

Dynamix
A crazy dynamic might go over your head for a bit, but you can be sure that in time it will be appreciated. Dig deeper and cling to those who cling to the only thing they know. :)
Up to speed
So busy lately and loving it. The gk tour has been, hands down, my favorite tour I have ever done. I wasn’t expecting the shows to be as big as they have been, and honestly I was nervous to headline for the first time, so thank you all for coming out and getting crazy with us. I have been liking these VIP meet and greets (despite my not talking enough or something? Im a quiet dude) and...
YNG4EVR
Got a new song out. It’s called YOUNG FOREVER.
:)
I’m really excited. A few radio stations have been premiering it and it’s gonna be a blast getting back into it with a new song, not to mention I’ve been amazed that some of you at the GK tour shows have even been singing the words to it. So awesome.
The song is about where I was when I began touring as The Ready Set....

Been so busy lately. Sorry I haven’t posted anything in a while. Preparation for the tour is going amazingly. Can’t wait for all you guys to see the show. Whole crew’s back in town, very good seeing everybody. Looking forward to seeing the bus pull up Wednesday. I love pre-tour craziness.
