man, let me tell you a story. I'm from Venezuela and one day (ten years ago) my dad was on a business trip in L.A i think and he suddenly hears "ralphie" coming from a record store, he loved the song so he (being a cool dad) bought me a cd, to this day, a grown 29 years old man listens to that record at least once a month, you guys are amazing. Love and much respect.

I remember going to one of their shows when I was about 15 down in south Florida. I don't remember the actual show or who else they played with, but I remember bringing my cd so they could sign it. When I asked Chris to sign it he was so shocked and asked me where I got it from and he looked genuinely surprised and happy about it. Their drummer was also such a sweet heart, he talked to my friend and I for a while too before and after the show (and he remembered us the next time we saw them). Its a pretty simply memory but some of the bands out at that time were kinda dicks and wouldn't really talk to anyone so these guys hold a special place in my teenage pop-punk heart

que buena es esta cancion uno de los mejores temas pop punk de todos los tiempos y es de 1999 lamentablemente esta gran banda pudo haber sido mas de lo que fue sino fuera por que se desintegrara en el 2002 en pleno apogeo del genero a mi parecer una de las mejores bandas de pop punk

I know Chris (who you all call Chris Envy) personally. Actually, he's my ex, and he made this band. He wrote these songs. He's crazy talented and has gotten married, had a couple of kids, and he's a good dude. If he said something to piss you off, he meant to. He enjoys getting a bit of a reaction out of people.
