Our first (and last posted ha!) Warped ’09 interview, we went with almost entirely questions submitted from YOU GUYS! We asked Alex Gaskarth and Jack Barakat, both guitarists and vocalists for All Time Low, some random fan questions about their fears and fantasies.
We unfortunately weren’t able to get audio that was worth sharing, so this one you guys are going to have to read. Enjoy!
Alex: You ready?
Me: Yeah!
MSO PR organizer: This is Alex and Jack from All Time Low.
Me: How was it having some of your favorite musicians in your music video?
Alex: Uh… phenomenal. It is really really cool that, you know, first of all, our favorite musicians have become somewhat of our friends and it’s also really really cool that they uhh, they’re down…
Jack: Yeah it’s really cool that they agreed to do it.
Alex: It was cool and it us helped us a lot, bigger bands to [help us out]. It’s really cool that they were willing to do it
Steph: If you could have anyone dead or alive be on your next album, who would you pick?
Alex: Um…
Jack: Ooh I think it would be cool to have Mark Hoppus on the record
Steph: That’s a possibility.
Alex: Unfortunately he’s dead, so…
Steph: What bands this year really impressed you on Warped Tour?
Alex: I love Less Than Jake. I love them I think they’re great live. There For Tomorrow is awesome.
Jack: Underoath is one of the best live bands I’ve ever seen.
Alex: I agree. Underoath is one of the most entertaining bands to watch.
Steph: When was the last time you did something for the first time?
Alex: Oo. That’s a tough one. I went tubing for the first time a couple of days ago.
Steph: How’d that go?
Alex: It was awesome.
Jack: I had my first orgy.
Steph: Wow. Five people with their shoes off?
Jack: Yeah, it was all the band on that.
Steph: If you were Kevin Lyman and you got to pick five headlining spots for next year’s Warped Tour, who would you pick?
Jack: Blink 182, Jimmy Eat World, Third Eye Blind…
Steph: Two more.
Alex: Jack’s Mannequin?
Jack: Jack’s Mannequin.
Alex: And uh…
Jack: How about Underoath?
Alex: Underoath, yeah.
Steph: Has anyone ever pulled a really cool prank on you guys during tour?
Alex: Oh yeah, all the time.
Steph: What was your favorite?
Alex: Uh… I remember one, every single band in the tour wore tighty whities on stage and they danced around.
Steph: I like it.
Alex: It was kinda silly.
Steph: How do you feel when fans ask you to marry them? Have you ever considered?
Alex: Uh, yeah I marry all of them. I marry each and every one of them.
Jack: We’re Morman.
Steph: If you guys were to cast a movie about yourselves, who would you have play you?
Jack: Tom Cruise for me.
Alex: Uh… Wanda Sykes for me.
Alex: Jack! Jack! [trying to sound like Sykes]
Jack: Yes, Alex.
Alex: Jack!
Jack: Stop saying my name!
Steph: Do you have any phobias?
Alex: I’m afraid of needles
Steph: No tattoos for you?
Alex: No I don’t mind tattoos guns but just like…
Jack: Injections.
Alex: Injections.
Jack: Yeah, I don’t like injections
Alex: Yeah like if I have to get blood drawn
Jack: Yeah.
Alex: I faint every time I get blood drawn.
Steph: Really?
Jack: I have to get blood drawn next week so…
Alex: I’m always fine while they do it and then they pull it out and I’m like “Awh f*ck.” It’s not blood so much it’s just the fact that this thing stabs me. Yeah it’s weird I dunno.
