Dakotah: What bands do you both listen to, what's in your iPod or CD

Hayley: Well, Underoath's new record just came out so we've been
listening to that a lot, it's amazing. Let's see....Mute Math we love,
we always listen to the Chariot, that'll never get old. Um, gosh I
don't know I can't really think of anything. The Refused DVD...
Josh: Yeah... we've been listening to Family Force Five, we love them.
Hayley: Those guys are all cool.
Dakotah: What bands influenced you guys, what did you listen to growing
up?
Hayley: When I was really young I listened to a lot of soul and funk music
with my family and from there it kind of just went to like, my mom was
really into pop and dance stuff because she was a dancer. She did ballet
but she also did crazy jazz stuff so I was into that, and then my dad
would listen to classic rock so I got a really wide variety of stuff
growing up, but once I was old enough to make my own choices, I don't
know. I moved to Nashville and met Zac and Josh and they showed me to
bands like Failure and Thursday, Sunny Day Real Estate, Death Cab, Those
kinds of bands really.....um, that's kind of why I am here.
Dakotah: What's it like being on tour with a band like Thursday?
Josh: It's amazing.
Hayley: Oh my gosh
Dakotah: Are they nice guys?
Hayley: Yeah. They are.
Josh: They're awesome.
Dakotah: So, you grow up listening to them and now you're on tour with
them. Amazing.
Josh: Yeah. It's so weird.
Dakotah: Okay, crunchy or creamy peanut butter?
Josh: Creamy
Hayley: Yes.
Dakotah: You guys like creamy? I like crunchy.
Hayley: Hunter likes crunchy.
Josh: It's not like it tastes any different, but peanut butter and jelly
is suppose to be smooth.
Dakotah: What kind of jelly? I like Raspberry jelly.
Josh: Strawberry.
Hayley: I kinda don't really care, that much.
Josh: Strawberry's the best. Strawberry is the best.
Hayley: Raspberry I think I would like.
Josh: I haven't had raspberry, well I think I have.... But it's been a
while.
Hayley: There's this Amish community like 20 minutes out of Franklin
where we live, and they make jelly's and stuff and jams... Oh my gosh.
They make the best friggin stuff. But I eat strawberry more.
Dakotah: So, how are you guys dealing with the Arizona heat?
Hayley: Not to good right now. We just got out into it and we're already
like baahh.
Josh: What's the temperature? Do you guys know?
Dakotah: I think it's about 115. I am from Los Angeles though.
Josh: 1 what?
Dakotah: 115.
Josh: Man.
Dakotah: I lived here for about 4 years, but I am from California.
Josh: California's nice.
Dakotah: Yeah. You guys are going there the 7th, 11th and 12th right?
Hayley: Ventura, Fresno, San Diego. We don't really now actually.
Dakotah: Are you guys on a tour bus, or are you flying to each state?
Josh: Yeah, we're on a tour bus.
Hayley: Yeah
Dakotah: Do you hate it or....
Josh: No, we love it.
Hayley: You know what... some of my family came to visit, actually all of
our family's have visited us so far. But when we were in Atlanta my dad
and my sister came up, and they brought the van because they had to bring
a lot of merch.... And I sat in the van, and I miss it. I really do.
Dakotah: Oh yeah, you guys used to travel in a regular white van.
Hayley: Yeah, like a 12 passenger.
Dakotah: And now you have this huge tour bus, you don't' share it with
anyone do you?
Hayley: No.
Dakotah: So you get it all to yourselves, that's rad.
Josh: Yeah it's so much fun.
Hayley: It's very nice.
Josh: We like to have some fun times, we do some crazy stuff.
Hayley: Yeah, it gets pretty crazy. Yeah, well how crazy can a 12-year-old
get?
Josh: If we shared a bus with anyone, they'd get so annoyed with us.
Hayley: Yeah, they'd hate us.
Dakotah: I think it'd be fun..... So what's been the best crowd so far
on the tour.
Josh: I can't remember. Atlanta was awesome.
Hayley: Atlanta was great, and so was Minneapolis, that was awesome.
Minneapolis was where the guys from Underoath were sitting at the Smart
Punk Signing stage, and they were waving to us.
Josh: Oh, that was a good show.
Hayley: That was a great show.
Dakotah: Well... I'm going to be rocking out when you guys are on. I
seriously sing to your songs so loud in my car. My sister hates me, I know
all the words but I have the most terrible voice.
Josh: That's alright.
Dakotah: I am sure you can tell, I have a hoarse voice as it is so... I
just sing really loud.
Hayley: I have the lowest most manly voice in the world.
Dakotah: You're kidding, you must be kidding. I'm terrible. But thanks
you guys, I'll be singing to every song.
Hayley: Thank you so much.
Dakotah: Well thanks for coming guys, it was nice to meet you.
Hayley: Thanks for doing this.
Dakotah: Oh yeah. Thank you.
Josh: We'll see you out there.
Dakotah: Try and stay inside, stay cool.
Hayley: Oh yeah we will.
Dakotah: Alright bye guys.
Hayley and Josh: Bye.
