Jeff Buckley, New Years Eve at Mercury Lounge in NYC. He played the song "New Years Prayer."

What's the worst thing that's happened to you on tour?

Do you think the album format is dead? If yes, has this changed the way you write or conceive of music?

Yes, the album format, from a purist perspective, is dead in a lot of ways. With a linear format like tape you had to listen to an artist’s "B" material to get to what you liked.

Finally, how did you approach your Rock The Rabbit t-Shirt design? How does it reflect your band's aesthetic?

We wanted to keep the same aesthetic we used in designing our logo: cool, bold and with a nod toward retro-rock designs. We approached the same artist, Neil Stuber, who did our original band logo.
