Band Quote by Chris Carrabba
“Well never ever be as good on record as we are live because were not a full band unless those kids are there. We ride the ripples of that emotional tide like at a movie theatre. If theres any artistry to what I do, any gift that I have, its that somehow Ive been able to tap into that. People have told me that I guide it. I dont think so I think I ride itThats what Ill miss most when its all over. But maybe Ill just go to more movies.”
