Good lord, this reads like a screenplay! Some of the finest music writing I've ever come across. Thanks so much for sharing!!

What a read.. And this is just another reason why Jim is the best

"The segment's producers gently suggest to the kids that they give their introduction a dry run before the tapes start rolling. Ever the pragmatist, James has some advice for ABC, too: "You'd better record the practice intro, just in case it's so fucking awesome.""

I didn't have time to make it all the way through but found the following quote interesting:

"Had I stayed or had John and Danny stayed, I don't know if they'd be where they are today," says Guetig, who drummed for MMJ from 2000 to 2002. "This band, the way it is now, is the way it's supposed to be. Pete's a better drummer than me, Carl's a better guitar player than Johnny, Bo is leaps and bounds better than Danny on keys. This band is amazing."
