hey this is peter from coremusic.czed
again and i'm here with kevin from a day
to remember what's up
so first question is when is your last
play here in the czech republic
uh
it was like two years ago
and it was our first time ever in the
czech republic and i just remember the
venue was really small
and we were really worried that nobody
was going to come
what was it in prague uh yeah it was and
uh
i just remember that there was way more
people than we thought was going to come
it was a really awesome surprise and and
i remember how
gorgeous your women are
you guys are lucky
okay
you recently play
rock hammering
do you ever get nervous before jumping
up onto a stage as big as
uh
not not anymore no we've uh
that was our third time playing rock and
ring rock and park and uh
it gets bigger every year but
i don't think we've been like really
nervous in a really long time i always
enjoy the shows like all the big shows
the festivals yeah there's like i mean
there's always a few where
you know you just can't help yourself
and you you have a bad set something
with your guitar goes wrong or you know
something and you're like oh man that
sets suck for me and everyone else is
like were you talking about this that
was awesome so it's always a good set to
somebody and
it's usually 90 of the time it's pretty
awesome
what do you think has made your bankroll
that much in the past few years
probably
probably just touring our asses off man
we uh we're on the road for like nine
ten months out of the year
and we put a lot into our shows too we
don't just get up and like
play some music and everyone you know
just sings we got like toilet paper and
beach balls
[ __ ] always exploding and stuff it's
pretty it's pretty fun i think that
helps a lot and you know it's just
giving back to the fans yes it probably
does
[Music]
how much did you have to sacrifice to
make your band a full-time job back then
at this start everything
you know your friends are all getting
married while you're gone they're
starting to have kids
your family's getting older and
you're not there for any of it you know
you're out here doing this every day
so it's it's a lot
that you sacrifice but it's i think it's
worth it you know it always is probably
um you've only just finished recording
the new album
common courtesy
with a release date to be announced
is that right yeah yeah
everyone thinks that common courtesies
is like mythical creature but it's real
like we've been done recording it for
three or four months now and it's it's
in the mixing process right now it's
almost done being mixed
and then it's going to be mastered and
then it's going to come out so it'll be
out
hopefully damn soon
the song violence suggests a heavier
feel what is it going to sound like
what's violence gonna sound like no the
the entire album oh uh
the entire album is not like violence uh
there are like a few songs that are like
violence but like with any other data
remember record there's there's a ton of
heavy there's a ton of pop punks there's
like there's gonna be a ton of
everything and
the record reminds me more
of homesick
than any record we've done
so it's
going to be kind of like that more fun
it should be good what are you aiming
for in the future like tourism places
you would like to visit
oh man
places i want to visit
we've almost hit them all on this tour
uh we haven't been to greece yet i don't
know if that's is it cool there yeah
it's pretty warm it's pretty warm yeah

there was a show that just went

insane so that was a lot of fun at the
start of the summer it went this was

it'll take me 10 minutes just to name
them all
the popularity of your genre of music
has flourished in the past years how do
you see its future
hopefully it just keeps growing do you
think that a day to remember is one of
the bands that might keep the genre
going

comes out
hopefully yeah that'd be
that'd be cool like a lot of the a lot
of the bands in our genre like ask us

not for
advice maybe you could say
and uh it's really cool that when bands
that you respect ask you for advice
it's pretty cool that's cool yeah okay

save it first until you came out if what
if you want to say a few words into the
camp like
