ARR:My name is Jordan. I sing and play guitar in ARR
518:How did all grown up come together?
ARR:We were all in previous bands that just weren't working out. We were all friends and had the same interests. So one day Mike and I decided to start the band. We asked Bob and Dan to join a week later and they of course accepted.
Where did the name of the band come from?
ARR:Mike had about 5 shirts that he wore over and over again. When we were brainstorming ideas for a band name, we saw it said All Rights Reserved on the tag of his shirt. We asked a few people what they thought and the overall concensus was good.
Which song on your new record describes you the best?
ARR:Musically, "You Know Who You Are"...it has every style of music that we love in it.
personally, probably "Fun Days"...we are all about having fun. We are all best friends that joke around with eacother about every single thing possible. We do the same with everyone that really knows us.
518:Do you have a favorite venue or venue(s) you like to play in?
ARR:Birch Hill was our favorite venue. Its responsible for us still being a band in a way. Some of the best shows we've ever played have been there. We miss that place hardcore as does every NJ band. We have played some awesome venues and then some not so awesome venues but its not about the venues to us. Its about the kids that show up. The best venue could have the worst crowd, while the worst venue could have the best crowd. We respond off of the crowd.
518:Is 518 Music the best online music site ever?
ARR:No way. I could go on and on with sites BETTER than your site. My computer disoriented self could make a better website than you. OF COURSE IT IS!!!!!

518:What made you get into a carrear in music?
