Hey everyone! Sorry its been so long since tour and i haven't posted in a while. I promise to get on it more. Well Benj and myself just got back from a trip to Central African Republic, which is a small country in the middle of Africa. I will bring you more pictures and stories from that trip soon. For now check out the video i posted at the bottom of this blog, from the Less than Zero campaign. Hope your all well. We are hard at work in the studio writing a record for you. Sounding really good so far. I know i said in an mtv interview our stuff was sounding like Blink. I wasn't trying to compare us to Blink or suggest we were trying to fill their shoes, As a Blink fan i was just drawing comparisons to the sound of their last album which is one of my favorite records still. As a fan of Blink and Greenday, i've been missing that music lately. Its really too early to tell but this record is really beggining to sound like a great pop punk record. Who knows though. Benji could go M.I.A. and come back from some enlightening trip and we could end up making some new age sitar record. HA! you never know with GC. I don't think we've made any two records that have sounded alike. Either way we always hope our fans understand we are just having fun and making music. The Greatest Remixes is out in a few days i hope you all enjoy it! It was really fun hearing everyone else remix the old songs. We hope you enjoy with an open mind, there is definitely a song on there for everyone to shake it too, no matter what kind of music your into. Anyways more to come from our trip to AFRICA with UNICEF. Congrats to my buddy Pete Wentz on his new baby boy!!

omg. this day just keeps gettin' better. i love u joel. and it would be really cool if your new record does end up sounding like blink, cuz of course, i love them. and if benji does come back from some enlightening trip and you do end up making some new age sitar record, i am giving you permission to kick his ass. lol. jk. but seriously, if it sounds like blink's last record, you'll gain a LOT of new fans! and i will continue to be a fan, but even if ur new record isn't anything like blink at all, of course i will still support you guys. but u ust made me even more excited and pumped for it!!!!!!! =D. yay. keep workin' and make it good. oh and joel u an benji are great ppl for goin to africa and visiting the cute children there. i believe in zero too =]
