Moose from 7000 Years
1. It is undeniable that 7000 Years has quite a following. How do you guys
do it?
**** Well,first off thanks for the compliment. I can safely say the way we do it is by being friends with fans.We are truely privileged to have all of people
at our shows, we just are very blessed.But I think the main reason is because
we are just like them we have no gimmick or chessey product to push, we just
have the truth. And I think that is what people want in this sometime tainted
world.
2. Obviously, Matt and Joel are brothers, but how did you guys get together
and decided to make your patient SKACOREPUNKMETAL sound?
**** Well about 3years ago joel and jon started the band, it was full ska.
They had a diffrent drummer,guitar,and bass player.They played a total of one
show,and kind of took a break, when reforming some old members did not feel
that was what they needed to be doing so they left and then came the birth of
the band you know and love now. How did skacorepunkmetal come aroun?We are
still trying to figure that out.
3. On your website it mentions that you are endorsed. How did you gain such
an honor?
**** Well thanks again.Yes I am endorsed by Risen Drums. I actually saw there site and e-mailed them and said you know hey like your stuff and we just started talking, we sent the a promo pack and there you have it. They are a great company. www.risendrums.com
4. About a year ago 7000 Years played with national sensations Pillar. Any
chances of you guys doing some more stuff in the future together?
**** That was a fun show in perryville. But to answer that with a "you never
know" There new album comes out in May check it out.
5. Obviously you can't play with the 7Y guys forever. What do you ****have
planned for the future after 7000 Years?
**** To tell you the truth I think i am going to be a preacher, this is a strong calling in my life and I hope to persue it.
6. It is rather apparent that you guys draw from every genre possible. What
artist have particulary influenced you over the years?
**** Man me personally, Chad Smith(redhotchillipepers)Taylor Hawkins(foo
fighters)Andrew(Five Iron Frenzy) Matt(Higginswitch)
Justin Alexander, oh yeah and Spoken
7. What plans do you guys have for the summer?
**** This summer we all plan to work as hotdog venders in N.Y.C. j/k
We have a tour set up with Five Star Future(altar ego) and possibly another
band, you can go to our site for more infor

your life been like."
