Cool, so other than the jewelry line, what do you plan on doing after you’re done touring? Well, we’re on tour with her until next May and we have a couple breaks in there. During breaks, we do shows of our own because we want to be known as a great live band, so we’re just going to keep playing and keep playing. We have a month off in January and we’re going to make our next record. We want to return to the golden age of Rock N’ Roll, where everyone had records that were only 8 or 9 songs, but you released a new album every year. So, tell me about your debut album. Was it a rerelease or what was the story with that? It’s a whole brand new album, but we did put three of our favorite songs that we made on our first album that we made with our own money. So, it wasn’t really what we wanted it to be and we put our three favorite from it on You Love You, our debut album. We re-recorded them here in LA, so

now they sound how we always wanted them to sound and now we’re really, really proud of them. Which three were the favorites that you put on the new one? Um, Semi Precious Weapons, Magnetic Baby, and Rock N’ Roll were the ones that were on our original album. Well, when you wrote these songs, or when you write any lyrics for that matter, what do you like to write about? I like to write about myself a lot, which I think all songwriters do, or my insane declarations like “I’ve been magnetic since I was a baby” or “Rock N’ Roll never looked so beautiful”. I hope that they will inspire people… no matter how broke you are or how fat you think you are or if you think you’re the wrong gender or whatever you think it is, that you can still live the life that you want to live. And, I also like to write about really glamorous, beautiful, self-destructive women. I seem to have lots of

friends who are these amazing, inspiring, but sadly, self-destructive women. Ok, so let’s just put it on out there. I know your band-mates always talk about what a charismatic, walking piece of sex you are. So, what makes you so attractive to your fans? Why are you just so hot? (He chuckles.) Um, well, luckily it’s just confidence. I have the confidence thing going because my brothers and my parents were so amazing. They just told me since I was a kid to just always be who I wanted to be. I feel prettiest and hottest wearing panty-hose and makeup and being platinum blonde. So, that’s what I do. I think that most importantly, people are just turned on by the fact that I have the confidence to do that. Any final words to live by? I hope that you all love yourselves and that you all get laid!
