Patrick: increased cd sales, and kids who think not buying them and downloading songs off the internet is going to lower them. right now music needs a kick in the ass another nirvana. but everyone bitches about pop artists and stuff, there are always gonna fabricated musicians because thats entertainment, and the best dont worry about that they just do their shit and play their heart out and kids that bitch about whether stuff is punk or nbot cause dude, u know every kid whos all like rancid this op ivy this, knows every word to all the "pop-punk" songs Me: good response, so are there any artists you think could kick the music industry in the ass, that haven't already done so?

Patrick: school administration that are too god damn concerned with kids feelings and not whether theyre gettin doen what they need to get done and kids who think middle american suburbia is the ghetto Me: I must agree with the last one since we do attend the blackest white school in America. Patrick: yeah but for real, the school thing is serious we shouldnt care about whether a kid feels ok when hes gettin high iun the bathroom we should worry about how were gonna kick his ass for being stupid enough to get high in the bathroom Me: Yeah, people should do that on their own time away from people that don't wanna be around it. Patrick: yeah i mean hell im no straightedge, but dont be a dumbass cause youll end up poor Me: Is Jerry Springer an exagerated reality or a sad truth or a mixture? Patrick: mix, theres a lot of fucked up shit that happens in real lilfe Me: Yeah like circus midgets and the bearded woMEN that love them.

Alkaline Trio's new CD is out in May do you think it will go unnoticed and keep them underrated Patrick: it all depends on them Me: One of the songs is called The Donner Party. So I see it as being too dark for the mainstream Me: or at least that song Patrick: cause i know they arent too big on fame, but i think they have tooo many fans for it to go unnoticed itll start poppin up on charts and people will notice Me: Cool
