He writes for All Axess: "I have noticed as I browse around online a rash of negative posts and hatred from people calling themselves fans and also from people who legitimately hate us. It's interesting how a band and music can evoke such strong emotion in people, but I totally get it because I was that kid who felt betrayed, too."

"Now we have all these 'old fans' that are complaining how we changed and we need to go back to our old sound and I just want to ask every one of them, where were you when we could only draw 300 people to a show? Where were all of your friends? If we were so great, why were we playing to half empty clubs for 500 bucks?"
