Hi guys, going to be sitting in a telephone press conference with: Chester Bennington - LP Tim McIllrath - Rise Against Austin Carlile - Of Mice & Men I originally wanted this to be a secret till I published the transcript (because one time this happened, people bitched at Adam on Twitter over it and attacked him for something he had no control over ) but I figured it'd be fun to involve the fans with coming up with questions. Need solid questions to ask all three bands. Based on time I may only get to ask one or two questions tops, but they have to be directed at ONE band member and not be a blanket question that all three bands can answer. This is probably because of time limits, so lets come up with something solid. Conference happens later today so time is of the essense. Brainstorm please!
Well, maybe its not such an good question , but why did they toured at the same time through Europe without beeing as one Tour and now they did in America. (atleast i want to know this) I would also be interested, if they would start to work on one or two songs together, i think fans of all three bands would be really happy with some work. How was it happened that all of them start to tour together and what they thought about each other. But this are just some dreamy fanboy queustions.
Ask Austin how it feels to be an amazing vocalist stuck in a mediocre band. For real though, with Austin, you can ask about "Full Circle" or the bands plans for the next record/going into the studio after the tour. Ummm, tell Chester I love him? Ask about The Making of THP, maybe if we bug them enough about it, we'll eventually get it. Also, future plans. Never heard a Rise Against song in my life, so... OH, OH: Ask Chester if they ever talked about touring with Bring Me The Horizon, and if he'd like to. We know they've met the guys and talked to them, especially Chester soooo...
Also, the whole shifting to self management thing they did, Mike said they had exciting ideas for LP ahead, ask him about that? Because Mike says a lot things and it would be nice to know if Mike was just rambling since Chester is more...level headed?
If nobody asks that before me, I will definitely be asking Chester about the self management. I think it's a great thing to get info on, to see what Chester feels that would mean for the band's future.
Ask Austin if he's gonna start Attack Attack! back up again since Caleb's in Beartooth now lol. I have nothing solid, all I'd want was some more insight into the THP tracks. Trivia galore.
Would love to hear Chesters opinion on the 324 shows in 2001 thing, as Mike claimed it was true today. No way.
Ask them if they have plans for The Hunting Party (Deluxe Edition) (not with the Mexico Performance deluxe version). A deluxe version with cool bonus tracks.
Jeez, that's lame.. is this the Greatest Hits: World Tour? I thought it's "The Hunting Party" Tour...
