As promised, here is the raw sound from my interview with Andrew McMahon at Warped Tour back on July 5th. It’s quite short but it touches on his new record (he says it’ll be out September 9th…haha) and it’s a fun quick snapshot of what’s up with McMahon.

I know that the questions suck, but please bear in mind that, A.) I had to ask the same set of boring questions about Warped Tour to every band for the radio collage I was doing, and B.) Andrew McMahon was my second to last interview of the day and by that time I was tired, sunburnt, grimy, dehydrated and full of horrible greasy food. Rest assured, I usually have better questions.

I also have a bunch of other 2-5 minute interviews with a bunch of bands including Say Anything, Anberlin, Cobra Starship, Charlotte Sometimes, Everytime I Die, Jet Lag Gemini, Relient K, Pierce The Veil, Devil Wears Prada, The Academy Is…, The Audition, The Color Fred, We The Kings, and Michael Schneider of To Write Love On Her Arms.

Anyone interested in hearing these? If so leave me a comment and I’ll upload them either here or to sendspace. I’m also going to try soon to put up some parts of an about 40 minute interview that I did with Anthony Green a couple months ago; there’s some really fun stuff in there about the new record, and even some interesting riffs on Green’s youth and the responsibilities of musicians.
