What are the songs you're especially proud of? And are there any songs you regret you've written?

Tomi, 20, Finland

You used to tour like 300 shows in a year. Is there a specific show that has a special meaning or memory to you, or are they all almost the same?

Tomi, 20, Finland

What songs do you guys like cover while rehearsing or soundchecking? we saw a video of you playing Elvis Costello's "Radio Radio" during a soundcheck, but you never played it live nor recorded it. Are there any songs like that you like to play together in your free time?

What you think about whats going on in the music industry now? You said one time Justin Timberlake's "Cry Mr a River" is a guilty pleasure song for you... do you sometimes have a guilty pleasure in some dance and pop songs that are popular in MTV and clubs right now?

We are only going to pick 10-15 questions, so make them worth it.

There needs to be some about what's going on with the right now, the new album, etc. Not random stuff like what type of cheese do you like (example).

I didn't read this entire thread, so maybe I might've asked the same questions someone already suggested. Oh well, just ignore those ones.

- Are there any bands that have influenced the music on the follow-up album to Underclass Hero? If you had to compare it to music of an existing band, what band would it be?

- Have you ever written a song that ended up sounding like a song by a different artist? What goes through your head?

- Did you use all 50 guitars that you bought for the Underclass Hero album?

- How do you come up with riffs like in the song Over My Head? Do you think it up first or is it serendipitous?

- If for whatever reason, you needed to play the solo to The Bitter End or else everyone on Earth would die, would you be able to do it?

- Would you rather be friends with Billie Joe Armstrong or Tom Delonge?

- Favorite Green Day song? Favorirte Blink-182 song? Do you like The Gaslight Anthem?

- How much longer do you plan on using your '72 Telecaster Deluxe? Any plans of using a new live guitar?

- Without the TUKs, is Avril taller than you?

- Do you like your own song, No Reason? How did you come about writing that song? I think it's got one of the best and catchiest choruses you've ever written.

- Where the heck did you get those "Elvis," "Holiday," and "EW" stickers for your old pewter Telecaster HH?

- Any possible sneak previews of the new songs in the near future? Even a demo or something?

I'm no Nic, but yes. :2cool4u:

When you compare your question to the ones that he answered on Fansite Connection and Sum 41 France, you'll notice the difference.

EDIT: 777 posts :2cool4u:

-Deryck, one day you'll get old......
How old do you believe you'll be when you call it quits?

-What on this planet, could you possible do other than perform, and make great music?

-Do you believe Sum 41 could one day, possibly make it into the Rock'n'Roll hall of fame?

-Any new hairstyle comming along with this new album?

There ya go Nic!

- After the second chorus of Subject to Change I can hear "Just like CAKE!" What's up with that? Can you clarify this for me and the people at home?

- You wear your guitar pretty low when you play live. How hard was it to play the Metallica songs when you did the Hoodwink festival? I can't seem to play any of their songs properly with my guitar that low.

- Are you going to bust out the mellotron for the next album? Do it.

- When performing live, what song hurts your voice most? Which one is easiest to sing? My guesses are Still Waiting and Pieces respectively.

- How do you come up with solos for songs? I know if the song calls for it, you write one, but some people write shitty solos and some people write sweet-ass, chill solos (The Hell Song). How do you keep from making a solo sound corny?

- Is the Joe Strummer signature guitar any good? I see you used it at the Key Club and in the studio. I'd get one, but I don't know if I want to pay $800 for a guitar that looks beat up! LOL!

- Sometime down the road if you and Avril have a kid, you don't plan on naming him or her something ridiculous like Bronx Mowgli Wentz, do you? Please don't!

I agree, a lot of these are generic and can be asked to ANYONE.

But it'll be fine. I'm on board to help with this, as Nic knows already.
