Submitted By: Alexis\n\nHey, I\'d just like to start off saying, I love your music. I think it\'s one of those types of music where it just...Helps out the situation :) Anyways, just a few questions... What inspired you to become a band, Were there any certain people/ bands who inspired you? Question two; How long have you guys known each other? I\'m doing a research project on the band for schoolwork, and so I was just wondering. :) Thanks so much for taking your time to read this. -Alexis

I don\'t think you are \"goody-too-shoes\" by any means, but dammit it is nice to see a nice bunch of guys can still make it in the world! ROCK on!

Submitted By: Nikki Boldt\n\nHi. I just want to share a story with you about how your song has \"Second Chance\" has touched me. I would like for you to meet a friend of mine her name is Haley Stevens. Please copy and paste to find out more about her story. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLXeAm_Bo00 Haley was one of the youngest people to ever be diagnosed with ALS or Lou Gherig\'s Disease. She lost her battle with ALS in September. Before all of this happened I did what I could to be with and her love and support. Then your song came on the radio one day and it just hit me like a ton of bricks. I remember hearing the words...\"I just saw Haley\'s comet shooting saying why you always running in place....\"-that really caught my attention. The video was also very moving to me considering that Haley was a dancer and that is when she was truly happy. As time went on and she was starting to lose more and more control of her limbs, her speech and even her eyes blinking-we knew that the time would come when God would take her to heaven let her dance again. The night that she died in the hospital we all waited with friends and when they announced that her life was over there was a mixture of relief and sadness. I came home, went on youtube and played your song. As the sounds filled my ears and the words poured over me I could feel Haley\'s spirit rising up to heaven. She is now free. Your song moved in a way that I have not felt in a long time. I thank you for bringing it to the world and allowing it to touch my life as I know it has so many others. Bless you. Sincerely, Nikki

Submitted By: JOHN\n\nWe just left your concert. It was great! I love your work and your attitude. I ould easily take a church group to hear you perform and not be ashamed. Dude, you brought your grandmother into the show-in memorium. You didn't bring in drugs, sex, or violence-you brought in love and respect. What kind of artist has that kind of heart and soul? You do. You have a message of brightness, redemption, and hope during troubling times. Even your audience tonight was people I'd be proud to be seen with-well, except for the 55 year old woman in a tanktop with tatoos. I hope you aren't trying to keep it a secret that you are decent people. I don't want your message and music to become lost.

Submitted By: M.\n\nOh, wow! I'm glad to hear Brent likes Springsteen. :) I've been a Springsteen fan since I was a teenager (I'm only 26 by the way. It wasn't very fashionable to like him at that age.. everyone else was listening to something like Eminem. LOL).
