I love how hearing a song can transport me back in time and stir up old emotions, so I totally feel you on this. I also have experienced so many times in my life a perfect song or even album coming to me at the right time when I needed it most. I feel like it's a message from God or the universe sometimes. So I'm also going to share a quote from a beautiful movie about music, August Rush. That movie captures a lot of the feelings I have about music and when I heard this line I immediately thought, "That's exactly how I feel about music." The character played by Robin Williams says it, "You know what music is? God's little reminder that there's something else besides us in this universe, a harmonic connection between all living beings, every where, even the stars."

I remember meeting you all at a Meet & Greet in San Diego during this tour. I had a short list of questions for the band (like, "What does the "5" on the album cover stand for?" etc.) that I couldn't wait to get answers for. Soooo... I don't watch Star Trek and I asked you, VERY naively, "What's a pink tractor beam?" I could immediately tell by your stutter and facial expression what the F a pink tractor beam was a metaphor for ("into your incision..." HELLO!? [face palm] not one of my prouder 'intellectual' moments). If I recall correctly, you laughed a little and said, "Well, this is kind of a dirty little love song..." and I stopped you immediately and said, "OHHH... it's okay. I got it." wah wah wahhhhhh...
