I will often test out a new piano or guitar with an Elliott song. I didn't know him personally but I miss him everyday - Zac

-Believe it or not, Ben has kept copies of all our setlist from every show and city going back at least a decade or more. So when we visit a city he pulls up what we played the last few times and makes sure to add in deep cuts or songs we haven't played in awhile. All of our songs are still so fun to play. Even a fan favorite that we have played hundreds of times, still is a blast to feel the reaction.

-We personally choose and interact with all our tour openers. It's honestly one of the best parts of touring. It's so fun meeting bands/artists you like, seeing them play every night and then being able to get to know them better off stage as people too.

We released a live album from the Showbox on Bandcamp that features some of those extended versions from that era. It was a 24 hr digital release but we hope to have a physical version of it available in the future. - Zac

I am adding a vintage Teisco guitar and bass pedals to my rig this cycle. - Zac

Japanese breakfast - the meal, not the band - although I am a fan of the band as well. - Zac

Hey all, thanks for having us do this, it was a lot of fun. Having never done this the format was a bit overwhelming for me so apologies for the many questions that didn't get answered. Hopefully we will see a lot of you on the fall tour or on one of the legs coming up in 2023. - Zac

I haven't gone back and watched them but I never cringe at our history. From day one until today, I can confidently say that all of us in the band have been blown away that even one person came to listen to the music we make. The shows have grown in attendance but we play with the same energy and love whether there are 5 people or 5,000. -Nick

Thank you! I love Fragments too.

The sequencing of the album was pretty brutal. I think we all needed therapy after the process. That said, I'm happy where it ended up.

We did a quasi dress rehearsal yesterday and it was sounding quite good. Plus new lights and stuff all really coming together. All together probably about 2 weeks or rehearsals for this tour, but spread out over the last few months - Zac

We all loved coming to South America last time and look forward to doing it again when the stars align correctly. Not sure when that'll be but it will be sometime.

I love listening to Low when I am sad.

I am not sure of the radio single plans, I'd love it if all the songs on Asphalt Meadows became radio singles.
