Standing with the Cross: Interview w/ Mattie Montgomery of For Today Interview by Michael Demos and Sol Santiago Photos by Michael Demos A while back Sol Santiago and I got to catch Christian Metal band For Today on their “Scream the Prayer” tour. For Today is an amazing band with some very inspiring messages. We sat down with vocalist Mattie Montgomery and the interview was very moving and positive. Mattie is determined and focused on what he does in both For Today and with his own personal ministry. Here‟s what he had to say. M.D. PI: Absolutely amazing show. At the end of the show you were talking to a girl in the crowd. What was that about?

MM: People use the word intercessor in Christian culture. It has come to mean someone who prays for people, someone who goes to God on behalf of the people around them. I‟ve been realizing lately that an intercessor isn‟t just someone who goes from one person to another, but someone who goes both ways…like a mediator. In the same way I‟m able to go to God on behalf of the kids in the room, I‟m able to go to the kids on behalf of God. It was really heavy on me that the girl had been just devastated and she had lies spoken over her about whom she is, I just wanted to undo those. I know God and when he looks at her he is captivated by her beauty and thinks she‟s incredible. Anything that says otherwise is a lie from hell. I just wanted to call it out to make sure that she heard it, just so she knows who she is to God. PI: Do you have a lot of personal connections like that on tour?

MM: Yes, we‟ve seen people come in on crutches and leave running.

We‟ve seen kids come in suicidal and leave rejuvenated. We watch the miraculous power of God break out in bars and clubs everywhere.

PI: Tell us a little bit about “Breaker”.

MM: It‟s by far my favorite record that we‟ve ever done. I‟m so excited about it. There‟s a lot of unique stuff. There‟s some spoken word/ slam poetry. We have a choir from Tulsa, OK. All of our family from all over brought their talents together and I think it‟s really something special.

PI: how has Facedown Record been treating you?

MM: Amazing! They‟re family! We talk all the time about how we wouldn‟t be where we are as men if it weren‟t for Facedown. Regardless of where we are as a band, how much money we‟ve made, or how many records we‟ve sold… just being a part of the Facedown family has raised us up as men and established our priorities in such a way that the rest of our lives is going to be very different. The way we love our wives or raise our children, its all been impacted by Facedown and the community they‟ve brought into our lives. I can speak for the whole band in saying we couldn‟t ask for a better record label than Facedown.

PI: What do you guys have coming up?

MM: We‟re heading to Europe with Stick to Your Guns and Winds of Plague. We also have some things coming up in the New Year that I‟m not allowed to talk about right now. It‟s gonna be big and I‟m real excited.

PI: Who does all the writing in For Today?

MM: It‟s a pretty collective thing. Our guitarist and bassist are brothers, and the two of them just kind of sit around in their house and nerve out and write all the music. Whenever they‟re not home they record on the computer. Our drummer will put in his input about drumming style and his parts. Once the music is together then I come in and write lyrics and maybe tweak a couple of transitions here and there.

PI: How do you know when God‟s talking to you? Do you hear a voice or do you feel something inside of you?

MM: God made a promise to all of us that he would put his spirit inside of us. Jesus said before he ascended into Heaven, after his Resurrection, “I will send a Counselor after me”. He was talking about a thing called the Holy Spirit. This Counselor does two things. One, he keeps us grounded in the foundational principles of what Jesus taught, and two, he leads us into situational truth. So when you hear Christians talk about the Holy Spirit, that‟s what this thing is. Jesus has put his Spirit, Wisdom, and Direction into us. I have it inside of me and it just burns. It‟s so deep. It‟s like something that has always been true, but I‟ve just learned.

PI: So, it‟s like a conscious. You can pick and choose what to act on.

MM: Yea, and I think people have this inherent ability to hear the voice of God, but it often asks us to do uncomfortable things and people get so good at stifling it. Like myself, I was addicted to Pornography for years and I always promised myself that this was the last time. I had promised myself that at least 100 times and I never got around to doing that. It seemed during that time I had gotten so far from the voice of God. I had gotten so good at pushing it down. I had gotten good at convincing myself that it was just a voice in the back of my head. I think that the cool thing about God is that he made us to communicate with him. When we just start listening, his voice becomes louder. It‟s cool that people whether they call themselves Christians or if they know God or not, they know that feeling. They know the direction that the spirit of God is pulling them in and when you begin to respond to it and let that Authority into your life, it becomes louder, easier, and clearer. Then you can begin to get more specific with it.

PI: Do you feel God has had this whole plan set out for you?

MM: Absolutely. Since before I was born. It‟s the destiny of Man to know God. It‟s not complex at all. You don‟t need to read a billion books; it‟s already in your heart to know the god that made them. The weird thing is, history and society has told us that we were made to do certain things. Those things are to be loving, kind, patient, and merciful. No matter what religion you subscribe to, what country you‟re from, you know that‟s why people are made.

Unfortunately, we don‟t always do that. What happens to a shark when it stops swimming? It dies. What happens if a squirrel doesn‟t store up nuts for the winter? It dies. If things don‟t do what they‟re made to do…they die. Except for humanity, who hasn‟t been doing which we‟re made to do for generations, and we still haven‟t died, which blows my mind. All philosophical leaders have said you have to live this way; the only question was what happens when you don‟t? Nobody answers that. The great thing is that in the entire history of Mankind, there has been only one answer. That answer is Jesus Christ. This man Jesus died to take on the sins of the world. I think it‟s such an interesting thing that there‟s only one truth, and that is Jesus. Because of Jesus we can now step into our destiny and approach God. PI: Mattie thanks so much for sitting down with us and giving us a chance to get Plug‟d In. MM: Thank you and God Bless in all that you do.

Jokes

We apologize if you found any of the jokes to be crude or offensive. We also apologize for you not having any sense of humor and for being so damn uptight. Jeez, they’re only jokes.

A few months after his parents were divorced, little Johnny passed by his mom's bedroom and saw her rubbing her body and moaning, "I need a man, I need a man!" Over the next couple of months, he saw her doing this several times. One day, he came home from school and heard her moaning. When he peeked into her bedroom, he saw a man on top of her. Little Johnny ran into his room, took off his clothes, threw himself on his bed, started stroking himself, and moaning, "Ohh, I need a bike! I need a bike!"

One day two very loving parents got into a huge fight, the man called the women a "bitch" and the women called the man a "bastard". Their son walked in and said "What does bitch and bastard mean?" and the parents replied "ladies and gentlemen". The next day the parents decided to have sex, the women said "feel my titties" and the man said "feel my dick". Their son walked in and asked "What does titties and dick mean?" and the parents replied "hats and coats". On Thanksgiving the dad was shaving and he cut himself, "Shit" he said, the kid came in and asked "What's that mean" and the man said it was the brand shaving cream he was using. Down stairs the mom was preparing the turkey, and she cut herself, "Fuck" she said. Once again the kid asked "What's that mean" the mom said that is what she calls stuffing the turkey. Then the door bell rang. The kid answered the door to his relatives and said "Alright you bitches and bastards, put your dicks and titties in the closet, my dad is upstairs wiping the shit off his face, and my mom is in the kitchen fucking the turkey!

This guy was walking down the street and this hooker says, "Say, wanna have a good time?" "Sure," he says and they were off to the nearest motel. She takes off her clothes and he keeps staring at her. She says, "Is this the first pussy you seen since you crawled out of one?" The guy says, "Nope, just the first one I've seen big enough to crawl back into."

One day in the forest, 3 guys were just hiking along a trail when all of a sudden; a huge pack of Indians attacked them and knocked them out. When they woke up, they were at the leader of the tribe's throne. The chief then said "All of your lives may be spared if you can find ten of one fruit and bring them back to me." So after a while the first man returned with 10 apples. The chief then ordered him to stick all ten of them up his butt without making any expression at all on his face. He had a little bit of trouble with the first one and started crying while trying to put the next one in. He was soon killed. Later, the next guy came in with 10 grapes. The chief soon ordered him to do the same as the first guy. After to the 9th grape, the man started laughing so hard for no apparent reason, and was killed. The first two guys soon met in heaven and the first guy asks the second, "Why did you start laughing?

You only needed one more grape and you'd have gotten away!" The second guy answered while still laughing, "I couldn't help it. I saw the third guy walking in with pineapples."

Three friends -- two straight guys and a gay guy -- and their significant others were on a cruise. A tidal wave came up and swamped the ship; they all drowned, and next thing you know, they're standing before St. Peter. First came one of the straight guys and his wife. St. Peter shook his head sadly. "I can't let you in. You loved money too much. You loved it so much, you even married a woman named Penny." Then came the second straight guy.

"Sorry, can't let you in, either. You loved food too much. You loved to eat so much, you even married a woman named Candy!" The gay guy turned to his boyfriend and whispered nervously, "It doesn't look good, Dick."

One day a brunette, a redhead and a blonde decide to go through their daughter's purses. So, the brunette goes through her daughter's purse and finds cigarettes. She says, "Oh my god, I'm so ashamed! My Daughter smokes."

So, the redhead goes through her daughter's purse and finds an empty can of beer. She says, "Oh my god I'm so ashamed! My daughter drinks." So, finally, it's the blondes turn and she finds a used condom. She says, "Oh my god I'm so ashamed! My daughter has a penis."

Dear Dead Abby Abby was born and raised in the coal regions of Northeastern Pennsylvania. The oldest of eight, she constantly had her younger brothers and sisters asking her questions about everything from how things work to why that boy threw dirt on her. She‟d try to steer them straight with her advice, though sometimes she could be a bit sarcastic. Abby also had an uncanny ability to see the truth in people, despite what they tried to portray with their lies. Unfortunately, this led the locals to believe that she was with surrounded with dark forces. The summer before her final year of school, Abby was sentenced to death by hanging, without a proper trial, simply stating that she was a witch. Abby can‟t recognize the faces of her family through death, but she answers questions, thinking it might be one of her siblings needing her guidance.

Q. I caught my boyfriend cheating again. I want to kick him out and put him on child support. If I do this he says he will never see our daughter again. I want him to be in her life. What do I do? R.M. A. Kick him out and put him on child support. He's obviously scum he doesn't give a damn about you or his daughter. You're better off without someone like that in your life. Or, if you want to look on the bright side, maybe he's bluffing, and he'll realize that he wants to be in his daughter's life. Your choice, but if he's cheating, there's no point in sticking with it. Are you that desperate that you think that's the best you can do? A lowlife bastard who cheats on you, and then threatens you? Get some self-esteem. Move on with your life.

Q. My city is so violent and going down the drain. Is there any way to make it a nice place to live again? D.G. A. Burn it down or blow it up.

Q. I can‟t get my lazy ass boyfriend to help around the house. He always promises after we fight about it, but then go back to being a couch potato. What do I do? S.E. A. Take care of what you absolutely have to for yourself, but when it comes to his clothes, or his sink area or whatever, let it be.... When he runs out of clothes, he'll have to do them. Yeah, it might start another fight, but you have to get your point across.

Q. I‟m so behind in my bills and its really starting to stress me out. How can I get ahead here? A.L. A. Can you take up a part time job? If you can, put all that money towards bills. If you can't, try a budget. Cut out what you absolutely don't need, and focus on the most important things. Perhaps even go to a credit union or something and see if they have programs to help people budget their lives. Most people get behind on their bills because they have so many things they don't need.

Q. I‟m seeing a guy "unofficially" here in my city, but I like another guy about 2 hours away. I really want to give a shot with the farther away guy, but I don‟t want to hurt the feelings of my guy here. Do i have to end the relationship with the guy here? What if it goes bad with the other guy? I‟m kind of stuck here. Can you help? K.M A. Long distance relationships don't work. If you don't like the guy here, why are you "unofficially" seeing him anyway? And what's "unofficially" mean anyway? That you aren't committed to being in a relationship with each other so you're free to do whatever you want anyway? Like see someone else? Keeping options open? What if it goes bad? That's a risk you take whether he lives here or two hours away. Sounds to me like you're a bit of a player....you want to keep this guy here on the leash so you won't be alone if things don't work out with the other guy.

A Day To Remember Goes Green: Interview w/ Kevin and Neil of A.D.T.R Interview and Photos by Liana Marie This show was incredible! The line up consisted of: Close Your Eyes, The Word Alive, Underoath, and of course A Day To Remember; All great bands. It started out with the band called Close Your Eyes. A few songs into their set I was paged by A Day To Remember‟s tour manager; in which I was instructed to meet them out by their tour bus. It was truly a pleasure; being able to share the tour bus with A Day To Remember. This experience enabled me to get to know them better, as a band. I appreciate the time they took out of their busy schedule to make this happen. They were incredibly nice guys and I enjoyed working with them. The interview was great; both interesting and a lot of fun. Here‟s what Kevin and Neil had to say... L.M. PI: Is there a specific moment in your life that either of you will always remember?

N: Yes, the day that Jesus died for all of our sins. (K) Foot tag! I played a lot of foot tag in elementary school and it was a lot of fun!

PI: Where is it that A Day To Remember came from?

N: Ocala, Florida. (K) Ocala, Florida. (N) That‟s where we came from.

PI: What genre of music do you consider yourselves?

What made you decide to play this style or type of music?

N: I would consider us a mix of genres. Maybe...heavy, poppy, rock...all at the same time. We just decided to play this because we couldn‟t make up our minds. It‟s hard to agree upon one thing between 5 different people. Just collaborating all of those differences into one band is why we sound the way we do.

PI: What made you decide to include both singing and rather heavy breakdowns in your music?

K: Because they‟re SICK. (N) They both sound awesome! (PI) Is that why you decided to combine them? (N) Well, they sound good apart. So, we figured if you added them together it‟d be double as good.

PI: Is there significance behind the title of your band?

N: When we started the band, there was another guitar player besides me. He was in the band for 3 shows; all of which he did not play the full show. He decided to break his guitar and go off stage about 2 songs into the set. His girlfriend came up with the name. Later, he got kicked out of the band because he never played a show. We kept the name. And here we are today! (K) Mmhmm, that‟s real. (N) That‟s the truth. (PI) I guess you could say that‟s another day to remember, huh? (N) Its true. I will never forget that day.

PI: I‟m aware that you‟ve been working on a new album, “What Separates Me From You” that will be released on November 16th... (N) Correct. (K) 10 days! (PI) What are your thoughts on this album? Is there anything you think you would have done differently? Do you think it will meet your expectations?

N: E equals MC squared. ....that‟s it. That‟s my thoughts on it.

(K) That‟s it. (N) That is the formula. (PI) I was never too good at math or chemistry. So, me understanding that; it‟s slim...to none. (N) Me neither. (K) But I‟ll tell you who was good at math... (N) Jeremy is really fucking good at math. (K) Yeah!

(N) He made up the formula. I thought I heard it once before, but I was wrong. The CD that we‟ve been working on for the past couple of months, we worked on for about 4 months at home. We worked with Andrew Wade, Tom Denny, and Chad Gilbert from New Found Glory “slocked” in a little area. Sal was there...managing. (K) Yeah, it was a very small area. (N) Yeah and we just banged it out and did what we had to. We wrote while we were in Europe as well. That was fun right? (K) No, but it happened.

PI: What would you say separates your latest unreleased album, from your past records? Are there any major transitions or differences?

N: Kevin. Kevin wrote this one with us. His beautiful voice is on it. (K) I sang. (N) He sang on it. Another thing is we‟ve just really been... (K) Neal plays a drill on his guitar. (N) WELL. Way to give away the ... fuckin‟ secret... MotherfuckER! (K) I got too excited. It‟s...It‟s so good. (N) Yeah. We‟re also a little bit more grown up. We‟re taking A Day To Remember from a newer approach. (N) You know, just doing things relatively the same but a little different.

PI: Are most of your songs based upon past experiences?

N: ALL of them. (K) Yeah. We don‟t write about Unicorns and shit.

(N) ...Negative past experiences. (K) And that‟s it. (N) And that is it, because that is all that seems to happen to us. No, there‟s been some good stuff, but... (K) But we don‟t write about that. (N) Yeah. (K) No one wants to hear about happy stuff. You know what I mean? It‟s weird. (N) We tried to write a happy song and we vetoed that shit. (K) Because we actually wrote this song that was like *gloomy-poppy singing voice-,” Ca - La- Forn- Ia girls.” But then someone else took it! ... (N)* says under breath- “Fuckin‟ bitch.” (K) Now we have to start from square one...with mean shit. (PI) That‟s a sad story. (K) I know. (PI) It happens to the best of us. (K) I know! We were so stoked too! (N) That song had the best hook. (K) I know! Now we‟re all just angry. (N) We were going to wear bathing suits in it that look like cupcakes. (K) Yeah, I was going to wear a purple wig, a pink cloud, and be naked. It was going to be awesome.

(N) Me and Kevin showered together last night. (K) We did. (PI) Oh yeah? How was that? (N) Well there was 3 shower heads. We tried to get Alex in there with us but he didn‟t want to. (K) He‟s still young. (N) Yeah, we‟ll break him in one day. (K) We saved the whales. You know, we conserved water. (N)Yeah. We‟re going green. (K) Yeah. “A Day To Remember Goes Green” could be the title of this interview. (N) We go green often. -*Obnoxious laughter

PI: What would you say is one of the craziest things you‟ve ever done or witnessed while you were on stage performing?

N: I had a 3-some. (PI) Yeah? On stage while you were performing?!

(N) ...while I was performing. (PI) Wow. That must take skill! I‟m impressed.

(N) Yeah, I guess that was pretty awesome. (K) Yeah...it was..-*mumbles (K) Some kid climbed the street pole and then got arrested. (N) The craziest thing that happened as we were performing...When we were playing Irving Plaza in New York, a kid decided to jump from the balcony onto the stage. That didn‟t work out to well. He ate shit onto the ground. Almost landing on top of Jeremy, he got up unhurt...I don‟t know how, and was chased. He then tried jumping in the crowd, but stepped on the monitor wrong and then went face first into the barrier. (K) ATE SHIT. It almost looked like the back of his head touched his back. (N) Seriously. It looked like he was broken in half. And then he jumped up, sang the words, and was ripped out of the show. (N) He was still singing the words as he popped up. (K) He had a goodnight. (PI) Can I find this on YouTube somewhere? (N) No, I wish! If you do send it to me! (K) That kid is made of rubber. (N) Seriously. (K)...and doesn‟t have bones, I guess. (N) Anymore.

PI: So how has tour been going so far?

N: It‟s been good. We just started this run with Underoath, Close Your Eyes, and The Word Alive. All the bands are pretty solid. (K)Nobody wants to hang out with us! (N) Yeah. (K) I‟m upset. (N) You came onto the bus and saw that there was no one here. It‟s just us. (K) Its just us.

(PI) That‟s sad. I‟m sorry. (K) We suck. We‟re a horrible band. Nobody wants to hang. (PI) Oh. Get out of here! (K) We‟re just stupid. It‟s just us and Yuengling for the long haul. (N) But it‟s not even Yuengling.

It‟s Corona. (K) Yeah! That‟s right, it‟s not Corona. It‟s Corona in Yuengling! EVEN YUENGLING DISAPPEARED ON US! UGH. *Laughter (N) Where is Yuengling made? I‟m going to ride down there. Let‟s go there! (K) Next Question. I‟m sad. (N) Let‟s go to Yuengling.

PI: What are the determining factors for choosing your set list for each show?

N: What song we don‟t suck at the worst at. (K) Yeah. (N) And what song people want to hear the most. (K) What songs we can remember.

(N) Yeah. We try to base it around what people want to hear; what people request. People will hit us up on Facebook and Twitter and tell us they want to hear certain songs. We LISTEN. We do. We may not way to play those songs, but we do play them. For YOU! (K) Yeah. (N) We wrote them when we were fifteen...still playing them. For YOU! (K) Yeah. (N) We love you...out there!

PI: What are your favorite and least favorite parts of touring?

N: My favorite part of touring is...This bus is pretty cool. (K) These t.v.s. (N) Yeah, I don‟t have dish network. (K) And my least favorite part is Jim Steiner...(N) And his red tie. (K) And the girl who‟s on ET. What‟s her name?

Mary Hart. I hate her. She‟s my least favorite part of tour. (PI) Why do you hate her? (K) She‟s fake. (PI) Oh. (K) She‟s SO fake. Her smile is also fake. (N) We get Sunday Ticket also. (K) Oh. (N) We also get the playboy channel.

(K) Yeah, we do. (PI) Oh gee. (N) We leave it on.. (K) We watched porn the other night and made fun of it the whole time. (N) Yeah, and some girl... the runner was on the bus. She got creeped out and left. (K) YES. (N) Chasing girls away... (K) We don‟t like girls. (PI) That could be part of the reason you don‟t have many friends to hang out with!

(N) I have a girlfriend. Girls don‟t hang out with us. (K) Girls have cooties. (K) We‟re talking about guy-friends. (PI) Oh, okay. (K) We‟re trying to go green. (PI) That‟s right! How could I forget?!

PI: If you could describe your band as a sit com or television show...What would it be and why?

N: A weird reality sit com. (K) A weird porn. A weird reality porn sitcom.(N) ...Like “Seinfeld” met... (K) “The Devil Wears Nada” (N)...On playboy channel. (N) It would definitely be played on HBO. (K) Yeah. (N) We say a lot of fucking cuss words. (K) True. That is true. (N) They‟re just to make the fucking point. You know what I‟m saying?

(PI) Yeah. I got you. You have to put emotion or some extra “UMPH” behind it. * Laughter (K) I was at Friendly‟s tonight and I was just drinking a shake. You know, just chillin„and stuff and man...I was just lightin„off that F-word, and there were kids everywhere! I was like, “Oh shit!” Then, I was like “SHIT! I just said shit.” (N) We should come with a parental advisory sticker when we enter places. (PI) Just get it all taken care of right away. (N)Yes. (PI) Okay.

Good thinking. (K) Does our new CD have one? (N) No! But I wish it did. (K) Man, I used to buy CD‟s just because they had that on it. Like, Shaq Diesel, I bought it. (N) I bought Sublime because it had boobs on the cover. (K) Yeah, boobs are cool. Back in the day boobs were cool, not so much anymore. (N) Yeah, I‟m over boobs. (K) Yeah, I‟m trying to go green. *Laughter PI: What can we expect from A Day To Remember in the future?

N: Probably, nothing. Then you won‟t get your hopes up. *Kevin Laughs obnoxiously (PI) Oh man. What a letdown, but I see what you‟re going with this. (N) You will expect a lot of touring. (K) Mhm. (N) More CD‟s. (K) Mhm. (N) More Screaming. (K) Mhm. Mhm. (N) More immaturity. (K) More singing. (N) More wieners, more green, more guitars. (K) Mhm. (N) More cameras. (K) Mhm. (N) More tattoos. (K) Mhm. Mhm. (N) And more touring. (K) Probably the Iphone 6. (N) And the more touring, and more touring, and MORE touring. (K) Mhm. Yeah. And you can expect that recorder to be like this big next time. * Measures size between index finger and thumb. Because you know how everything gets smaller. (K) That flip cam...TINY.

This Is: Interview w/ Levi Benton of Miss May I Interview and Photos by Liana Marie It was a busy day at Eleanor Rigby's Big Giant & The Extravaganza. There were tons of great bands, people, and merch tables everywhere. At the end of the night, I had the pleasure to step outside of the chaos for a few moments to ask Levi a few questions. I find it incredible how talented they are and how far they have already come...And JUST out of high school. Levi's probably one of the coolest, nicest, frontmen around. I appreciate the time he took to chat with us. I also appreciate that there Tour Manager Isaac, was able to throw something together for us last minute. Here's what Levi had to share with us. L.M PI: Would you mind if we started out naming each member of Miss May I and their role in the band?

L: I‟m Levi Benton I do vocals. Ryan Neff plays bass and does vocals. Jerod Boyd plays drums. BJ Stead plays guitar. Justin Aufdemkampe also plays guitar.

PI: What‟s the story behind Miss May I? Where did it come from?

L: We actually started out as a little garage band that played a lot of cover songs for a while, for all of high school. Then, we started writing music towards the end of high school. We also started playing our first shows while in high school. Kids started liking it. Eventually we got picked up by our manager, while playing a local show. Ever since then we graduated and really haven‟t been home since. We‟ve constantly been touring.

PI: Is there any significance behind the actual title of your band?

L: It‟s just a stupid, nothing too crazy, cool name. We just tried going with that because it sounded different than everyone else and it‟s in a way an oxymoron. We‟re a metal band and that title doesn‟t really sound like it would belong to a metal band. Also, as far as I know it‟s one of the very few band names‟s that end in an “I”. We‟re really just trying to be weird and different.

PI: That‟s great. It‟s always good to be unique, I respect that. When you were younger, did you dream or imagine that you‟d be where you are now? Or did you have a different journey planned for yourself?

L: Well, we all had college lined up our senior year. Then, around Christmas time we got signed or signed our first record deal. So, we had to cancel our college plans. I didn‟t think I was really ever going to do this...I still don‟t think our band is good enough for all these people to come watch us. So, it‟s pretty cool? (PI): No way! Really? (L): Yeah, so I‟m just hanging out.

PI: How long would you say that you‟ve all known each other? How did you meet?

L: We‟ve known each other for about 5 years. We met in high school and we then found out about different people and the instruments they play. I moved to Troy, when I was a freshman. Then, I met all the guys. No one else was friends really before that time. We met Ryan just playing local shows and found out he was really good at bass. We pretty much just stole him from another band, and that‟s basically, that.

PI: Nice! So, genre-wise you would consider yourselves a metal band, then?

L: Yeah. I would consider us like a metal-core. We‟re trying to be like old school metal-core. There are so many bands that are trying to change music and we‟re just trying to be a classic band.

PI: Which one of your songs would you say you enjoy performing most, live?

L: “Forgive and Forget” is always fun because kids are always louder than we are. (PI): That‟s actually my personal, favorite. I really dig that song. (L): “Masses Of A Dying Breed” that‟s off the new album. That song‟s fun because it‟s probably the fastest song we have.

“Relentless Chaos” is also a lot of fun, kids also sing along to that. Any of our singles are great because it‟s really awesome to hear kids sing louder than anything you‟ve ever heard before.

PI: Is there any band that you haven‟t played with quite yet, and you‟d like to in the future? If so, who would that be?

L: I would totally love to play with As I Lay Dying. We hung out with them a couple weeks ago and they like our band a lot so, that might just happen sometime in 2011. (PI): That‟s something a lot of us will be hoping to see in the future and look forward to! (L): Yeah, we‟re looking forward as well.

PI: If you could put together your ultimate tour, what bands would you include?

L: Ultimate tour... Ultimate metal tour I would say: As I Lay Dying, The Devil Wears Prada; because they‟re our friends, us, Asking Alexandria I guess because they‟re our friends....No take them off! No, Okay. I‟m restarting this.

Asking Alexandria, The Devil Wears Prada...NO. I don‟t know if kids would come see this but I would totally be there. Us, As I Lay Dying, It Dies Today, All Shall Perish...And we‟d have Usher open it. That‟s my ultimate tour.

(PI): YES. That sounds wonderful.

PI: How would you say being in a band affects your personal life?

L: It sucks because I don‟t get to see family. I‟m real close to my little brothers and I don‟t get to see them grow up. I miss a lot of stuff at home. I don‟t get to see my girlfriend...I‟ve been with her forever; for 4 years. (PI): Congrats! L: Yeah. So, I don‟t get to see her and that sucks but I‟m so used to touring that I hate being home. It‟s like a win-win.

Being home‟s cool because you get to see everybody but then you hate it. Being on tour is non-stop fun. Either way, it‟s really pretty awesome.

PI: What would you say your biggest challenge as a band has been? And if you‟ve done so, how did you overcome it?

L: Our biggest challenge as a band would probably be recording our newest album. We only had 10 days to write it.

Right after the Emmure tour we only had 10 days so...we tried to write on the road but we couldn‟t. We‟re not one of those fake bands that only have one person writing the music. So, when we got home we all just locked ourselves up in our practice room. We slept there for 10 days, wrote our album and hung out. That was probably the hardest thing I ever did. We had to write 10 songs in 10 days. So, every day we had to crank out a song. That was probably the hardest thing I ever did. But it turned out awesome so it‟s worth it. (PI): I‟m impressed. You guys really must have creative minds. (L): Yeah, we try.

PI: If you were to describe your band as a sit come or television show what would it be and why?

L: I would say the “Tim and Eric Awesome Show.” That would be because we‟re really random and really stupid. For some reason, maybe because we‟re some of the youngest kids on tour, we still think every day is fun. Everything‟s always fun and we‟re always hyper.

PI: What are you guys currently listening to?

L: We listen to a lot of “30 Seconds To Mars” lately. Everyone‟s been really into that, more specifically the “This is War” album.

PI: What would you say are some of your specific musical inspirations or influences would be?

L: Personally, I like a lot of “All Shall Perish” and “As I Lay Dying” as well as “Darkest Hour”; who would also be on my ultimate tour.

Basically any metal-core band that don‟t have keyboards and who aren‟t fake guys who just play instruments. We‟re trying to be as old school as possible, as it‟s been working out. So I‟m happy with that.

PI: What advice would you give to those out there just starting out or who desire to be in a band as successful as yourselves?

L: Get a manager before you sign any contracts or do anything important. That‟s what we did right off the bat, and it‟s probably one of the safest things you‟ll ever do.

PI: What can we expect from Miss May I in the future?

L: As of this tour, we‟re pretty much touring constantly until the end of next summer. We have everything pretty well-booked. We‟ll basically be everywhere. We‟ll be going overseas and to pretty much every country but Russia and Africa between now and next summer.

And then...I can‟t tell you specifics because I‟ll get in trouble but that‟s what we‟re doing.

PI: Great! Well it was nice chatting with you. Thanks for giving us a chance to get Plug‟d In. L: Yeah! Anytime! Thank you.

Plug’d In Features:

Chasing The Unknown Review by Michael Demos Picking Chasing The Unknown as this issues feature wasn‟t a hard decision to make. I‟ve been an admirer of theirs for a while now, and I know I‟m not alone in that.

Though relatively unknown, Chasing The Unknown has been starting to garner attention as of late.

Forming in early 2010, this Lebanon, Pa. quartet has been lining their ducks up and knocking them down with relative ease. They put out a pretty decent, though really short EP, and even gained some local radio airplay with their single “Run Away”. They‟ve been starting to do some decent shows as of late, even opening up for Smile Empty Soul and Soil.

Practicing, playing shows, and developing stage presence are definitively key things in the formula to success. I‟d personally like to see them step it up a little more and book a lot more shows to fine tune their already decent live set.

Chasing The Unknown definitely captures the Alt-Rock/Grunge sound perfectly, but they‟re not limited to it. They are definitely a lyrically driven band and their songs fit well with their melodic, yet heavy guitars and drums. They seem to have a stable line up right now and rumor has it they‟ve been spending some time in the studio working on some new music.

I‟d like to see the band step up their level of promotion and really push to get their music out there. In this day and age it‟s very important to focus on exposure/promotion as well as musical quality if you are serious about a career in the industry. In order to be truly successful you must be committed to what you do. It always involves struggle and sacrifice. Chasing The Unknown really seems to have their acts together right now and I‟m hoping/looking for a long, successful career from them.

On Tour: Interview w/ John Connolly of Sevendust Interview and Photos by Curt Ridall With the recent return of Clint Lowery to the band, things are feeling more familiar for my friends in Sevendust. I recently got to sit down with John Connolly, the thrashing lead guitar of national recording artist Sevendust. Besides playing scrabble on their phones and Modern Warfare 2 in the dressing room, believe it or not these guys write music too. John gives us some insight on the recording process for their recent album “Cold Day Memory”, as well as the importance of a band‟s chemistry PI: How has Carnival of Madness been treating you so far?

JC: Good, we are midway through the second week. We have done 8 out of about 30 shows.

PI: Are there any acts on the tour you have never seen live?

JC: No and actually the funny thing is, we have actually played with everyone on the bill at one point or another. We haven‟t actually toured with Shinedown but we have done a bunch of regular shows and we are all under the same management. So we kind of all know each other, like a big family. We have toured with Chevelle and 10 years. We are actually getting into another tour with 10 years as soon as this is over with. We have toured with those guys a couple times and Puddle of Mudd. We do a lot of radio together.

PI: Have you been to the Merriweather Post Pavilion before?

JC: I think we did Ozzfest here, I remember being here at some point.

PI: Do you have a preference for playing bigger venues or a smaller crowd?

JC: They both have their advantages. The smaller venue is a lot more intimate you can definitely see everyone in the joint. It‟s a little bit more personal, so I like it that way. When you play in front of a bigger group of people you get to connect with more folks, so it‟s a little bit of a give and take. I like them both. I mean I‟m not going to lie, it would great to roll around and play sold out stadiums, but the smaller ones are cool too, especially when the vibe is really happening. Sometimes it‟s hard to get that vibe in a bigger place.

PI: Do you guys have a lot of time off on the tour?

JC: We don‟t have too many days off on this tour, just enough to recharge.

PI: What do you like to do with your down time?

JC: If I‟m home, it‟s all family time.

PI: What about if you are on the road?

JC: It kind of depends where we are at. Most days I will try to find a gym and a lot of days I will hole up with a guitar and work on music. It really just depends on where we are, the kind of day it is, and whether I have family within shooting distance or not. I‟ve actually got family not far from Philly so I will probably hook up with them soon. I haven‟t seen them in awhile. We have some baseball games set up too; a couple of guys are going to the Philly and Diamondback game. Just catch a game and check out the city. Some days if you do like 4 or 5 shows in a row, all you really want to do is lie around in bed and just chill.

PI: So the new album has been out how long?

JC: It came out on 4/20/2010 PI: You guys seem to have albums that have come out on odd days like April Fool‟s day and 4/20 for example. Is there any method behind that?

JC: It‟s all just that Tuesday and how it comes up randomly in the system.

You try to figure out which week you want to do and records come out on Tuesdays. It just happens to fall on that day. We thought it was funny.

You just look around and see when other records are releasing and plan.

You don‟t want to go out when a whole slew of other records are releasing. It‟s tough when you go out in November even though you can sell a ton of units, it‟s real hard to chart because you have Celine Dion, Michael Jackson, just everyone who has something to come out for Christmas. It‟s funny we got murdered by the TV show Glee. I guess Glee was the big rage at that point.

PI: Do you guys write on the road?

JC: It‟s not something I really focus on right now, but it kind of always happens. You grab a guitar and even though you don‟t think you‟re writing, you usually are. The process is always kind of going. It‟s more like an exercise the more you do it, the better you get at it. You never know when it will just show up. It‟s always good to have a guitar within arm‟s reach and just sit there and bang it out. In worst case scenarios I will just hit a chord on my IPhone, just so I can remember it. I just write to write, it doesn‟t really have a rhyme or reason. It‟s not like I write and say “Ok this is going to be a Sevendust song”. There is a ton of stuff I write that has no business being on a Sevendust record. It‟s one of those things you just throw it in the bin and there is always stuff to sort through. It‟s cool when you go back and you haven‟t really checked on it in awhile. You get inspired, then all of a sudden the juices get flowing. Then when you really jump into the writing part of it, it really comes in and you‟re ready to go. There will be a 4 minute chunk of stuff and there will be this one rift in the middle of it. I‟ll just be sitting there listening and all of a sudden it will just get me up, I‟ll grab a guitar and learn it.

PI: Did you guys do anything different on this album or look at it from a different approach as opposed to the ones before it?

JC: Yes actually. There‟s no relation to the way we did the last 3 records. Last three records when Sonny was with us, Sonny would be in California I was in Florida, the rest of the guys were in Atlanta. So when it came time to make those records, you start the demo process and your emailing stuff back and forth. A lot of the stuff was getting done without being in the room jamming. Then we‟d pick a date to go in the studio. We‟d back it up two weeks, do pre-production where we would sit down and jam through the songs. Most of it was mapped out where we just had to build on what was already there. Then we went in and made a record.

That‟s not how we did it back in the day. Back then we‟d actually sit in rehearsal and jam until things came out. It wasn‟t like I‟d go off by myself and just sit there or Clint would go off by himself and sit there and write. We did a lot of that on this record, but the coolest moments were where everybody was in the room together. I mean we wrote very, very cool songs independent of each other. The best ones were like “Where did that come from”? You would just be jamming and all of a sudden you would be “Wow how did that happen”? They had no direction, no thought, just everyone starting up and going, for the sake of actually connecting with each other. We made a conscious decision that no matter how much stuff we wrote away from each other, it was going to be focused on the group. Clint‟s brother in law basically just sat there, hit the record button and sucked out everything that was going on in the room. For us it‟s more like we don‟t want to stop to record, we just want to go. So Cory would get everything, mark everything and go through it. Its cool when

you are all in there at noon with nothing, everyone shows up, tunes up and sits down. Everyone starts jamming on something, then about 5 o‟clock we would basically have this arrangement of something at least figured out, a rough sketch of something. Then we‟d take a break to go eat, let Morgan hit the drums. Bring him some food and while he was eating, we would try the guitars. In 12 hours all of a sudden a song will come from nowhere and it was cool to do it like that again. There was no “Alright I spent all day working on this song and nobody in the band has heard it except for me. I really hope they all like it.” Which is a horrible place to get yourself in.

You can put the blinders on and think something is so amazing. Sometimes you are right, but a lot of the other times the band listens to it and they are a little more critical. At the end of the day, we were all high fiving each other knowing we are all on the same page. It was cool to be able to get all out there. If there were issues with the song, we addressed it right there. We‟d throw different ideas around, we tried different arrangements. Just sitting in the room and jamming in front of each other like we did on the first record was the biggest change we did. Last couple records were emails, texts, and hurry up and get this ready to go into the studio. This was probably more related to the way we did the first record, even though a lot of people say it sounds more like Animosity. The way we actually came across the songs was kind of how we did it in the beginning with Clint, which was a huge thing having him back again. Chemistry. Sonny is great, but chemistry is irreplaceable. If Sonny was the first guy in the band, it would be the same, but the shoe would be on the other foot.

Whatever that original chemistry is, it‟s hard to re-create. It‟s hard to beat.

PI: If you could throw a BBQ who would you invite?

JC: Right now I‟d probably invite Obama, just to have a little talk. Other than that I‟d probably throw a BBQ at Notre Dame Stadium. I‟ve never seen a game there and I‟m a huge Notre Dame fan.

PI: Do you know what you guys have coming up next after this?

JC: We are going to do a short headline run. We will be doing something with “Hard Drive” which is more like a radio deal. Then we have the Shiprock‟d Cruise which includes 10 years and Aranda to name a few.

PI: Thanks for keeping us Plug‟d In on Sevendust.

JC: Thanks to you guys. My pleasure.
