And having a new child and all the press coming down on us and stuff like that, I decided to just use experiences from books and other stories and stuff instead of even dealing with it. I mean, there's a little bit of my life personal things in it, but for the most part, it's just very un-personal. In-person, I think that'll be a surprise to a lot of people. The album may not sell as much, and so they were concerned with that. They never, ever once put any pressure on us. They just basically told us their feelings and their thoughts of what they thought of the record. Most people don't like the record. A lot of my friends don't. Chris and Dave and I, all three of us are totally excited about it. We've been playing it for a while.
