YM Chats With O-Town (con't)

Fan: Are you guys planning any solo projects in the future?
Erik: Right now, obviously our main attention is geared towards the success of O-Town and its progression musically and as a group. There are individual aspirations that we all want to achieve, whether it be acting or a solo project.
Dan: Or a professional basketball player.
Erik: We will continue to make music whatever way possible.
Trevor: Holla!

Fan: What are some of the most embarrassing moments you guys have had as a group?
Ashley: I don’t want to blow up someone else’s spot and tell their embarrassing moment so I’ll tell mine.
Trevor: When we did the performance of Miss America!

Fan: What we really want to know for sure, do any of you have a girlfriend?
Jacob: Yeah. I’m married.
Dan: I’m the only one with a girlfriend.

Fan: What would each of you say is the best song off the best CD in the world, “O2”!
Erik: Everyone has their most very special favorite of them all, but I think mine is From the Damage, the first song on the record.
Ashley: My favorite is Suddenly.
Jacob: Craving.
Trevor: I’d have to say Craving too.
Dan: I Showed Her. Which by the way is our second song, going to radio on 1/27.

Fan: My question is - do any of you have any bad habits? And, if so, what are they?
Trevor: I bite my nails.
Ashley: I’m very, very late all the time. I play too much golf!
Dan: I play WAY too much XBox nowadays! It can get really addictive.
Ashley: I’m continuously getting lost at WalMart superstores *laughs hysterically*

Fan: You guys were really good at the KISS concert in Lowell. How’s the monkey?
Jacob: The monkey is doing absolutely fabulous. She’s turning 4 next month and she’s a little sweetheart.

Fan: How often do you fight?
Erik: As of late? We don’t fight at all anymore really, at all.
Jacob: Like 3 times a year.
Trevor: We’re really good at having discussions now.
Erik: We’ve learned to have discussions now!

Fan: Do you think fame has gotten to you at some point and changed you into a person you weren’t and don’t necessarily like? If so, did you realize how different you were acting and change?
Trevor: You can’t go through life without changing. College changes a person. A job changes a person. Every experience changes you somehow and it’s necessarily bad or good. Our lives have done a 180 and I don’t feel like anyone has changed for the worse.

Fan: Ashley, what is your favorite song to perform live and why?
Ashley: Probably Craving, I love the song and how we perform it, I’m on piano and Jacob and Dan on guitar. It’s one of those songs that you can just really feel and perform and I just like the group dynamic in that song the most.

Fan: American Game was an awesome song! How come it wasn’t on “02”?
Dan: We wrote, as a group, around 50 songs. It’s impossible for all of them to make the album. More people know American Game because it was put on the TV show, but just because the song didn’t make the album doesn’t mean that the song will never be heard.

Fan: Have you ever forgotten a dance move or a line of a song while performing?
*group laughter*
Ashley: This is kind of a story behind the Live From NY DVD. We’d been out on tour for like 4 months, and out of all nights we’re backstage, I grabbed Jacob and I asked him about this part of the choreography that I’d forgotten and we’d been doing it for like 4 months straight. And we got onstage and we got to that part and I just froze on that part, and they had to cut out that part of the DVD.
