Pep-Rock: Hey, could you please tell us your name and what you do in the band? |
| Vinnie: Vinnie Caruana, and I sing for I Am the Avalanche |
| |
| Pep-Rock: How did you guys all meet? |
| Vinnie: Touring in The Movielife, I had the pleasure of meeting all types of characters and these are kind of ones I want to hang with. |
| |
| Pep-Rock: How's everything been for you guys since joining Drive Thru Records? |
| Vinnie: Easier. We have our van and trailer and support and love from a caring label. Yaaaaaaaaaaaay. |
| |
| Pep-Rock: How's it been having to cope with all talk of and comparisons to The Movielife? Do you think it has been easier or harder for you guys to come out as a new band because of it? |
| Vinnie: Comparisons don't make sense. I'm not trying to re-create The Movielife. This is a new era. People need to get with it. I have nothing but respect for my days in The Movielife and the people that supported us, but people should have no problem getting into this band. This is more real and sincere than ever. |
| |
| Pep-Rock: You guys have your self-titled debut album out this month, would you like to tell us more about it? |
| Vinnie: God, we love it. I feel like it is the perfect result of the past few years work. |
| |
| Pep-Rock: How would you describe yourselves as a band to someone who's never heard of you guys before? |
| Vinnie: Real |
| |
| Pep-Rock: You guys have been touring all over the place this past year, where has been the most fun to play, and why? |
| Vinnie: Hmmmm…Austin has been dope. Boston, NY, NJ, Long Island, SoCal, Orlando, England and the UK as a whole. I'm gonna go forever. When we show up and play and people pay attention, we are eternally grateful. |
| |
| Pep-Rock: What's the craziest thing that's ever happened to you guys while on tour? |
| Vinnie: I survived the Drive Thru Euro Invasion tour. Too much fun. |
| |
| Pep-Rock: Any plans to come and visit us folks over in the UK in the near future? |
| Vinnie: Yes! We are working on comin' over in December. We shall keep y'all posted. |
| |
| Pep-Rock: So what have I Am The Avalanche got planned for the rest of 2005? |
| Vinnie: Bayside tour, Honorary Title tour, Piebald and Hot Rod Circuit tour. Then over to the beautiful UK. |
| |
| Pep-Rock: If you guys found a magic lamp, rubbed it and a genie appeared and granted you three wishes, what would you wish for? |
| Vinnie: A new president, cheaper gasoline, and for everyone reading this to buy our record, pretty please…? |
| |
| Pep-Rock: Do you guys have any last comments or closing statements? |
| Vinnie: Yes, thank you very much for taking the time to do this interview. And thanks to all the people for sticking with us and supporting the motherfucking Avalanche. |
