Probably Ten Fist Strong and Hundred Day Hangover at Roller Haven freshman year One of his best memories at a show ::: Huge circle pit at Anti-Flag last summer. Singing along is always an awesome time. It's even cooler when people sing along while we're playing, so keep it up! One of his best memories at a CJF show ::: It's all great. There's constantly this really strong feeling of unity on stage with CJF. Secret crush ::: Your mother…and Kyle (web dudes are sexy). And Ebbert too Interests ::: Besides music, a little skateboarding, snowboarding, wakeboarding, hanging out, going to shows, nose picking Most embarrassing moment ::: I don't know. I probably farted in class in grade school or something (which I do all the time now and it's more amusing that ever) Biggest regret ::: Probably not speaking up when I should in order to prevent bad things from happening in relationships, etc. Also, not always having the balls to stick up for what I believe in. Man, I have too many. This question is making me depressed. I'm going to go cry and write some emo I knew I wanted to be a punk rocker when… ::: All of a sudden, nothing else made sense anymore. The whole popularity contest thing was way too stressful and totally not worth my time. So I bought a skateboard at the end of eighth grade and hung out with my brother and his friends for like the next couple years. They were two years older than me and they kind of adopted me. I learned more and felt better about myself that summer than I ever had before and I can't thank those guys (my brother Aaron especially, as well as Ross’ brother Sean, and Joe Smith in particular) enough I thought I didn’t want to be a punk rocker when… ::: Nothing has ever really made me seriously want to not be part of this scene anymore. Sometimes it's discouraging when I see things like greed, prejudice, selfishness, etc. seeping their way into punk rock. That's the thing that bothers me about Warped Tour in particular - you get in, it's like a thousand degrees and there are people passing out, and then they rail like 5 bucks for a bottle of water. I wish they'd leave that capitalist crap out of our scene Favorite food ::: I don't know. I hate this question. Pizza's always good. I like Italian. Ranch goes on everything Favorite teen magazine and why ::: Oh, what's it called...you know, the one with CJF on the cover like all the friggin’ time? Oh, wait... Believes the word “punk” means ::: It's kind of ironic that I'm answering this question because I hate it when people try to define "punk" or say stuff like "that is not punk" just because I think punk, at its core, is based on individuality. So if I tell someone that they're not punk because they don't fit my mold, I'd say that I’m the one who's not punk. To me, punk is being yourself and caring too much about what's really important and to give half a crap about what's not. To this date, has never… ::: Pooped upside down Someday hopes to… ::: Make music for a living, or at least be somehow involved with the punk community. And maybe conquer the world (if I have time)
