Dear Mom:

Hello!! Sorry I havenât written for a while. Weâve been really busy on the road playing with a bunch of cool bands the past few months including Switchfoot, CKY, Butch Walker, Breaking Benjamin, Taproot and Quietdrive. They are all really cool guys and have only pranked us a few times on stage. The shows have been going great! We are selling 100s of CDs a week and constantly making new fans and friends each night. I think we have Soundscanned over 3,000 CDs in the Midwest alone!!

No worries mom, I have been taking good care of our âtour busâ (ie, the minivan) â only a few of the other bands have made fun of the soccer ball on the back window. And everyone likes the peanut butter and honey sandwiches that you sent us. We canât wait to get home to Chicago and headline our show at Metro â I think the show is sold out already!!

Itâs been amazing looking out each night seeing people sing along to the words of our songs âBeautifulâ and âYesterdayâ (I still canât believe Bob Ezrin produced these songs for us!!). I think all of the radio play weâve received of those songs on WKQX and WZZN (Chicago), WRTT (Huntsville, AL), WJJO (Madison, WI) and other stations across the country has really helped. A few people have recognized the songs from when we won the International Songwriting Competition and SongOfTheYear Competition.

We had a few crazy things happen to us last week⦠a bunch of our gear got stolen from our trailer. Good thing we have endorsements with Fender Guitars and SWR Amps â they were able to help us replace the gear right away and we didnât miss a show. Have I shown you our new Dunlop guitar picks with our faces on it? They are hilarious!

When we were hanging out in New York City, Donald Trump walked by us on the street. I donât think he remembered us from when we played the Miss USA Competition a few years ago. Itâs all good though, I still have the picture to prove it!! We sure did have a blast recording that commercial for Coca-Cola and MTV though!! I always told you one day Iâd be rocking on MTV!!! Oh and make sure you renew your subscription to Teen People Magazine, thereâs a feature article on us in the December/January issue!!

Everyone in the band has been getting along great. The new guys, Scott and Mike, are a great addition to the group! Ahn sends his love as well. You remember Ahn right? You hate his tattoos and dreadlocks but said he was a ânice boy.â It has been a lot of fun touring with these guys and writing a bunch of new songs. When we get home, weâre going to be recording these new songs. I am going to produce the CD in our basement â donât worry, I soundproofed the basement and it wonât be too loud (no louder than Dadâs snoring).

Anyway, I have to head to the stage for soundcheck now. Send my love to Dad and pet WillBill for me. Iâll be home in a few weeks!!

Lots of love!!

Chris
