Why don't you guys tell us why you wanted to re-release the Unraveling

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:09:43 PM)
We really felt the original mix didnt do those songs justice

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:10:16 PM)
we wanted Bill Stevenson's touch to help that

Fat Moderator (Aug 23, 2005 6:11:37 PM)

tiny tim (Aug 23, 2005 6:15:00 PM)

Fat Moderator (Aug 23, 2005 6:16:17 PM)
yes, thanks Hunter

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:16:21 PM)
i just use the standard marshall distortion on my JCM2000, which is what im playing these days.

peteyb (Aug 23, 2005 6:16:37 PM)
what are your feelings on the differences between small clubs and bigger venues? Do you feel that as you grow it takes away some of the intimacy of a show? Thoughts on crowd barriers?

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:16:50 PM)
crowd barriers suck.

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:17:13 PM)
though they are unfortunately necessary in some of the large venues to ensure safetyl.

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:17:15 PM)
I think there are pros and cons to both although nothing really beats a small club where kids are going nuts

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:17:23 PM)
stage dives make a show for me

RiseAgainstBrandon (Aug 23, 2005 6:17:35 PM)
I like the more intimate shows where there is no barriers

imasianxx58 (Aug 23, 2005 6:17:42 PM)
has anything embarrasing happened to you guys on stage?

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:17:45 PM)
Thanks Margaret

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:17:48 PM)
i fall all the time.

jac (Aug 23, 2005 6:17:56 PM)
Whats it like trying to maintain a healthy vegetarian lifestyle while constantly on tour?

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:17:59 PM)
im really clumsy on stage.

RiseAgainstBrandon (Aug 23, 2005 6:18:16 PM)
healthy?

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:18:17 PM)
I fell through a stage in Italy

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:18:31 PM)
lots of subway hahaha

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:18:34 PM)
its not easy to stay healthy on tour, but we manage.

JOn (Aug 23, 2005 6:18:44 PM)
do you guys see yourselves doing this when u are much older like the Dead Kennedy's are doing minus Jello Biafria

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:19:14 PM)
yeah im planning on sueing everyone and leaving.

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:19:21 PM)
we too will do this without jello hahaha

carly (Aug 23, 2005 6:19:27 PM)
how was making the music video for swing life away? was it boring like most bands say they are?

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:19:35 PM)
theyll get someone younger and better looking in ten years…

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:19:35 PM)
i dont pay tim his royalties

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:19:43 PM)
its true.

sarah (Aug 23, 2005 6:19:48 PM)
are there any new songs on the re release

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:19:54 PM)
videos are boring.

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:20:04 PM)
the "give it all" wasnt boring though.

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:20:09 PM)
it was sweaty.

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:20:11 PM)

Miss-Reckless (Aug 23, 2005 6:21:11 PM)

RiseAgainstBrandon (Aug 23, 2005 6:21:44 PM)
we gross weird

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:21:47 PM)
we spend a lot of time on the road together so its healthy to get away from each other now and then…

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:22:04 PM)
Its healthy to be healthy

RiseAgainstBrandon (Aug 23, 2005 6:22:05 PM)

Jumpin' Jack Flash It's a gas gas gas

sarah (Aug 23, 2005 6:23:25 PM)
how often do you actually get to talk to your fans for more than just a second or two? is it weird that everyone knows you

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:23:55 PM)
Its a little starnge when you're at a mall and someone recognizes you.

wreny (Aug 23, 2005 6:24:12 PM)
any thoughts on a split album? and if so who would it be with?

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:24:16 PM)
hmm

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:24:27 PM)
we always talked about doing one with death by stereo.

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:24:48 PM)
I would love to do a split with alexis on fire

Step2Me (Aug 23, 2005 6:24:51 PM)
have you ever been to david geffens house?

RiseAgainstBrandon (Aug 23, 2005 6:24:56 PM)

Adawg (Aug 23, 2005 6:25:05 PM)

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:25:29 PM)
I like to them these streets belong

RiseAgainstBrandon (Aug 23, 2005 6:25:32 PM)
life less frightening

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:25:34 PM)
we hope to have a new album out by next summer.

mnx12 (Aug 23, 2005 6:25:40 PM)
Can you guys explain the video for Heaven Knows? Its confusinig…

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:25:45 PM)

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:25:53 PM)

SirSuckIt (Aug 23, 2005 6:25:58 PM)

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:26:15 PM)
I grind my teeth

web slinger (Aug 23, 2005 6:26:21 PM)
how do u guys feel about people getting rise against tattoos?

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:26:31 PM)
sometimes i sleep walk and wake up in brandon's arms

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:26:41 PM)
"heaven knows" is mostly confusing because the final version was edited. its tells of a drug-deal gone wrong/suicidal sorta thing.

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:27:06 PM)
rise against tattoos are flattering, its amazing.

tiny tim (Aug 23, 2005 6:27:15 PM)
I like how you guys dont try to be all somber and obsessed with death and darkness. How do you feel about other bands that never crack a smile?

RiseAgainstBrandon (Aug 23, 2005 6:27:29 PM)
boring

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:27:43 PM)
i dont think i want to see Dimmu Borgir smile to be honest…

mo (Aug 23, 2005 6:27:47 PM)
the songs i love most on the unravelling are reminding me of e less technical killing tree, state of the union is heading in a similar direction, do you guy like to explore this direction more or do you actually prefer the punk-singalong songs?

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:28:24 PM)
to each his own. its amazing how certain side of punk lost the point of being an individual

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:28:53 PM)
yeah i go to the knights of columbus hall in my town and see bands.

snakeled (Aug 23, 2005 6:29:00 PM)
how did you guys get to play black flag in that z town movie?

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:29:23 PM)
We like different types of songs. Its what keeps RA interesting

RiseAgainstBrandon (Aug 23, 2005 6:29:24 PM)
I go see bands when I'm actually home

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:29:37 PM)
the Dogtown people called us.

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:29:50 PM)
they had some survey and kids picked us.

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:30:14 PM)
there's a good chance of that, we can't confirm anything yet.

mnx12 (Aug 23, 2005 6:30:16 PM)
I know this isnt exactly Rise Against, but Tim, will there ever be another Killing Tree album?

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:30:53 PM)
TKT was my free-time band. i do TKT when i have free time. if i ever have free time again, who knows…

Gouch (Aug 23, 2005 6:30:59 PM)
who has the stinkest farts?

RockinBiotch15 (Aug 23, 2005 6:31:26 PM)
If you werent making music as a living wat would u be doing?

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:31:57 PM)
id love to be teaching or writing. i was an english major before the band.

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:31:59 PM)
I would be a gas station attendent

bretj89 (Aug 23, 2005 6:32:10 PM)
how did you get the rise against name

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:32:11 PM)
I majored in Tim

RiseAgainstBrandon (Aug 23, 2005 6:32:20 PM)

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:32:37 PM)
Brandon owns a ski school

Miss-Reckless (Aug 23, 2005 6:33:28 PM)
is there anything or anyone in particular that inspired you to write any of the songs?

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:33:28 PM)
our originakl drummer thought of thew name actually

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:34:16 PM)
there's always people in your life that inspire songs.

NVA (Aug 23, 2005 6:34:20 PM)
how would you feel about a tour with Propaghandi?….. cause i would feel great about it!

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:34:26 PM)
so would i.

Maria (Aug 23, 2005 6:34:28 PM)
i love you guys. what is your guilty pleasure

RiseAgainstBrandon (Aug 23, 2005 6:34:37 PM)
would be a great tour

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:34:39 PM)
Bands like Bad Brains Bad Religion and Minor Threat inspired me the most

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:34:59 PM)
guilty pleasures include journey.

Fat Moderator (Aug 23, 2005 6:35:11 PM)
Journey rules!

rockxprincess (Aug 23, 2005 6:35:20 PM)
When you're playing at shows, isn't it hard not to get down in the crowd and mosh and have a blast? I mean playing them must be exhilarating…but it must take some self restraint..

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:35:57 PM)
sometimes i give in to that urge, as a few unlucky people who had me land on their head might know…

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:36:02 PM)
Fat Moderator RULES!!!!

supersonic;;overdirve (Aug 23, 2005 6:36:12 PM)
What advice would you give to new bands looking to make it big time?

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:36:28 PM)
concentrate on songs, not image.

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:36:36 PM)
Dont expect things to be handed to you

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:36:50 PM)
A stich in time saves nine

jac (Aug 23, 2005 6:36:52 PM)
Who approached whom as far as getting PETA involved with the recent tour? Do you plan on collaborating with them for future events?

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:37:03 PM)
i spelled stitch wrong

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:37:12 PM)
we've been involved with PETA for almost 3 years now.

simply_wicked (Aug 23, 2005 6:37:50 PM)
any plans for another punk cover? something like anyway you want it, i thought you did an amazing job with that song

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:37:57 PM)
i think we met orginally on Warped, i can't remember (PETA)

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:38:19 PM)
we've covered CCR, Minor Threat, Black Flag….

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:38:24 PM)
I would love to cover an Articles of Faith song

Damon (Aug 23, 2005 6:38:33 PM)
you guys are by far the best band live i have ever seen, and all my friends wish they could have gone to see you live. how do you keep up your energy show after show?

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:39:00 PM)
the kids are the ones who enthuse me.

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:39:20 PM)
Its the hardest part of touring but i find the energy through playing our songs

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:39:28 PM)
i interact with the crowd, if they are into it, i can't help but be into it.

joe (Aug 23, 2005 6:39:33 PM)
at what age did you all start playing your instruments?

KatrinaLovesYouGuys (Aug 23, 2005 6:40:34 PM)

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:40:42 PM)

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:42:34 PM)
we're afraid he's going to revolt like "i,robot" style…

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:43:02 PM)
He's becoming hostile

wow the f-ups…

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:44:09 PM)

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:44:36 PM)

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:44:42 PM)
He loves hugs

riseagainstTim (Aug 23, 2005 6:44:51 PM)
but he's only trying to suffocate you.

RiseAgainstJoe (Aug 23, 2005 6:44:53 PM)
