US. In the US, I think I heard a rumour through my brother that somebody started back East, but for the most part, nobody
has even heard that before. Maybe it's the fact we've never been out here before and the lack of communication between fans
and ourselves made that happen, but almost every interviewer has asked something about this boy band thing, and it's freaking
ridiculous, it's so silly!" - Mike "I think it's because of my strikingly good looks." - Chester "I think it's because

throw up, just like everybody else." - Chester
