I have been getting some messages from people asking me what I have been up to lately. There had been a lot of of stuff but I thought I would share with you one day I recently had in LA. I was on vacation for 2 weeks in the caribbean prior to going to LA. Everyone knows about the amount of partying and drinking you can do on vacation. Done with being constantly "vacation drunk" everyday I thought when I went to LA I would take it easy. Little did I know. I flew home to Toronto from vacation on the 25th getting in at 11PM. I get to bed just after midnight. I was up at 5:30 AM the next morning to catch my flight to LA. A pretty bumpy flight lands around 11:30 AM LA time. I grab a rental car and drive to meet Dipple for a Burrito. Then I had to be at Denny's for 4 PM to create our meal for their Late Night Rock Star Menu (the reason I went down to LA). Then we all decided that we wanted to go for dinner later so Deryck went home for a bit and Steve and I went to a pub down the street for beer. We talked about music, videos and the state and downward spiral of the real estate market (haha, yes we are old men!). After the beer we head back out to go meet Deryck at an Italian restaurant. Steve had to drive home to Long Beach so he takes off after dinner. Deryck invites me to come by his place to listen to a few new songs he had written. We get to Deryck's and crack a bottle of red wine. Its my favorite red wine right now called Toasted Head Merlot. 1 glass in Deryck says "don't worry about how much you drink cause you can stay over tonight". We start listening to songs, drinking wine, listening to songs, drinking wine, on and on. Before you know it we were quickly through 2 bottles of wine and had listened to most of the new songs he had written. They sound fuckin awesome! Some of them I have heard before and already played on and some of them I had never heard. Brand new ones. I am real excited about the new album. It doesn't really sound like anything we have ever done but still sounds like Sum 41. I am really into it. We then realize that we had just drank the rest of the stash of wine that he had. So then he walks in the room with a big 'ol bottle of Grey Goose Vodka. A bunch of glasses of Vodka later my motor skills were gone. I couldn't string a sentence together. Deryck says we should go make pizza. The pizza was great but I was so drunk that I forgot that I am lactose intolerant and the pizza had loads of cheese on it. I should apologize to Deryck and his couch for the smells that came out of me after that. I happen to glance over at the clock and it reads "5:30 am". I calculate in my head that it would be 8:30 am in Toronto. That would mean I would have been up for 27 hours now. NOw extremely tired and extremely drunk we sit around talking and listening to music for another half hour and Deryck says hes going to bed. I ask him where his massage chair is and as hes walking up his stairs to bed he points to his basement. I stumble down stairs and snoop around looking for the massage chair. I finally find it and settle in. I put it on some random setting and pass out. I wake up about an hour later to 6 knobs driving into my back. I shut that down and head up stairs to bed. By this time the sun is fully up. 2 days later I fly home still hung over. I think my liver is bruised from the past 3-4 weeks. Time to decompress. Not the craziest story in the world but what happened the next night is too X-rated to tell........................... The whole moral of this story, I am very excited about the new songs and I hate booze right now. Talk to you all soon. Don't drink and drive.

Tutta la morale di questa storia, sono molto entusiasta dei nuovi brani e Odio Booze adesso. "Non bere e guidare".

To all our fellow Canadian friends,
a lot of people have been asking about the song always and if it's going to be on the greatest hits album. it is and it isn't. for some reason, not our choice, the song will be included on the best buy version of the cd in the US. outside of the US, i honestly don't know. it's all up to the individual record companies in your country to decide how it comes out. sorry that they make shit difficult sometimes. if we had it our way it wouldn't be like that. sorry for any bullshit you have to go through to get it.
Cone ha scritto sul myspace dei SUM 41: We've been getting lots of questions about the song "Always" being on the Greatest Hits album. I think Steve has already answered a few questions on it but just to clear it up "Always" and a live version of "Motivation" will be on the Best Buy version of the Greatest Hits. So if you want "Always" on the record you'll have to buy it at Best Buy.
