Hey Cone! Just want to say, you guys are one of my biggest inspirations and you your very self also inspired me to play bass (okay, but i'll stop with the soppy stuff now) and I was just wondering out of curiosity what bass strings do you use live mainly? I really like your sound! :D

What was it like working with/producing the Strumbellas, considering the music was so different from sum 41? Thx for doing this!

I have a Mark hoppus bass that I repainted bright yellow that is really nice, but I saw your white p bass on tour and that things is absolutely beautiful.
I like the white one which is my fav. live bass but I also have an original 1961 P-Bass that sounds insane!
Is it a '62 avri?

For example why did Stevo Leave, will he return? Will Sum 41 Stay together or without Stevo is end for SUM 41? Thanks for answer. (Sorry for Bad english)
Well Steve left for many different reasons that I won't get into but him and I talked a lot about it before he quit and I understood everything and why he did it. He'll always be one of my best friends and Hes gonna be a great writer and director.

Just something I was curious about haha I'm glad I got to see The Sums play twice in six months; at The Phoenix in Toronto last November and with Billy Talent at The ACC. You guys killed it both times! Rock on, fellow brother of the bass!
thx! My parents don't call me Cone, some of my friends do and some don't. Shannon refuses to call me the "c" word in her words. ha.
Thanks for answering my question, as random as it was, it means a lot! Hopefully I'll get to see you play in Toronto again sometime soon!

One question that's on my mind right now. What's the status of Like Everyone Else? Will we ever get to hear it? :silly:
Hey Tomi, hope you're good. Ya that song will be released. I'm thinking more as an OPMD song though.

Hey Cone! Greeting from Hungary! My question is, what was that point in your career when you released that you are known all around the world? And to know that what you do is this important for many people like us who are here with you now? :)

We all kind of had a hand in it. I knew Michael Maxxis from other stuff he'd done and I contacted him to do the video and he wrote a treatment that was crazier then this and we went back and re-worked a different treatment which ended up being the video you see now.
