Aw yea

He just means they'll add Even Flow to the second encore.

Steve is one of the best interviewer's of the band/Eddie I have seen; Mark was good; Carrie was decent; and Judd sucked.

The Eddie interview with Apatow was disappointing. Hopefully a full band one comes out.

Gleason and the surfer did a good job with their questions though.

Don't get my hopes up like that bro.

Judd apatow is an awful interviewer apparently, and eddie was not on his A-game.

Thinking about it, mark richards and steve gleason were better probably cause they're both pretty big fans it seems. They ask questions from a fan perspective. Judd apatow and carrie brownstein are friends with them first and foremost, I think.

I just view these interviews as one big thing which covers a large range of questions.

Doesn't sound like the 10c to be lazy like that.

Besides the obvious bitching it seems like a really bad move when we're talking about such a big part of the new album promotion at the exact time they, in theory, should be concentrating the most.

I might have to re-read to be sure, but did he even mention the album or its songs at all? I don't know if talking shit on a blog post qualifies as a review, but maybe I'm too picky

That's just a shitty review of the MYM single that I shared for a laugh shortly after it came out.

I skipped backward a few pages on that blog and I still dont understand what it actually is. Psychotic ramblings? Reviews of music ive never heard of? Poetry? Is it poetry? Idk
