How did it feel stepping in the place of Fred, Matt?
MF: I was nervous as the band has a lot of history and success. I wanted to come in and try to put my own spin on things, help the band move forward in some sort of way. Eddie and I have been friends for so long, the transition was so easy. ER: I honestly believe the kids accepted him a lot faster than anybody else. MF: The kids have been so great. The transition for me joining, the writing process, living together has all been positive and all love. ATP: When playing live, is there a reason why you tend not to play a lot of old material, including fan favorites? ER: Honestly, I would love to, but I don’t even know how to play those songs anymore. I sat at my house before this tour with my iPod listening to every single song but it came to a point where I said, ‘I don’t want to play Timberwolves At New Jersey anymore’. We were thinking of bringing that song back, but there are some songs we want to put away when they are done. One day we will start playing those songs again though. Ada
