Alter The Press: How is it, being back in the UK?
Dan O'Connor (vocals/guitar): Awesome. This time has been so much more insane than any other time we have been here. I know we are on a major label now, and we have this new record that came out, but I never thought that the shows would be as insane as they are. The kids are awesome; it's great. We're having a great time.

Kent Garrison (keyboards): Like we were born from a different mother and now home in our nursery. It's like being babysat by Nanny from Muppet Babies (90's cartoon show). It's like England is the Nanny, and we are the Muppet Babies.

Kent: I was Fozzy Baby.
Caleb Turner (vocals/guitar): I was the cutest one.
