BULLETS

Swept Away TV Interview 2002

The interviewer gets the name of the album wrong and the entire thing takes place in their old, crummy van. They chat about getting flat tires, touring with The Used, Napster, and making their record. It has an awkward interviewer, awkward questions, and awkward answers. Apparently at one point you could email any of them directly from their website, which is adorable. A good time overall.

Burning Angel is some kind of emo porn site, so this is a weird one. The interview tries to awkwardly ask them about porn repeatedly, and Gerard changes the subject to Dungeons and Dragons and Lord of the Rings repeatedly. Ray missed this interview so Frank blurting out "Ray loves porn!" defensively has been forever immortalized in grainy YouTube history.
