February 20, 2007:
Chad Butler of Switchfoot -
"The song that was written at three in the morning at the foot of your bed ends up being sung by people half way around the world. That's a pretty amazing thing."

Gary Bennett, Founder of BR549 -- "It feels nice to be playing some new music for a change, and I had to kick the cobwebs out at first playing live."

February 17, 2005:

- "Dime Bag proceeded to hit us all with a variety of squeeze bottle condiments - he must have liked ketchup on his beef, because that's what my gear and I ended up wearing!"

January 9, 2005:
Ray Walker of The Jordanaires - When I turned around, he stuck his hand out and said, "I'm Elvis Presley." I said, "I know who you are. I'm Ray Walker." Elvis replied to me, "And I know who you are."

December 1, 2004:
Chad Smith of Hemlock - "We didn't want to do an album where by the time you were listening to track eight you'd think you were still listening to track three."

June 8, 2004:
Adi Tejada of Uphill Battle - "Don't think just because you get signed to a bigger label that kids are going to show."

June 1, 2004:
