Say hellogoodbye? Say Anything

Say hellogoodbye? Say Anything

This is just a part of the article where they talked to Forrest:

Hellogoodbye

KG: How did Hellogoodbye come together?

Forrest Kline: We were just in high school and I started recording music on a computer as a hobby. We just kind of got people together to play shows with songs we already had kind of after the fact. Then we kept playing shows.

KG: Did you ever think it would get as big as it did?

FK: No, we didn't have any plans like that. We just played on the weekends.

KG: Did you listen to Drive-Thru [Records] bands while growing up?

FK: A little bit when I was younger I listened to New Found Glory and the Starling Line, kind of.

KG: Did you ever think that you would be signed to the same label?

FK: No, we didn't plan on that.

KG: [Your song] "Oh, It is Love" being the theme song for MTV's "Engaged & Underage," was that big for you guys?

FK: I don't know how we think of it. It wasn't a big, crazy thing, but it's cool, you know.

KG: As far as music and lyric writing go, do you do it as a band or is it just you?

FK: No, it is mostly just me.

KG: How has the MySpace tour been going?

FK: It is going good. We have only played like seven shows. But it has been awesome.

KG: Has it been fun playing with Say Anything?

FK: It's cool to be doing a co-headline where we can flop back and forth.

KG: Last year on your headlining tour, you had a house-party atmosphere. Should we be expecting anything that crazy?

FK: We just have some lights…that glow.

KG: There won't be any futons?

FK: Ha ha. No.

KG: What about your favorite song to play live?

FK: It changes from night to night. Sometimes there are songs that can be your favorite and sometimes they can be your least favorite. I don't know exactly. Usually it's whatever the crowd likes.

KG: You guys are going back into the studio after this tour, aren't you? Is there anything we should be expecting, anything great coming out of your mastermind?

FK: I don't know. I have had a chance to work on a few things, but after this we are going to get some real time to hang out and do it. But I don't have a game plan.

KG: Just fly by the seat of your pants right?

FK: That's right.

KG: Do you have any words of wisdom to share with Mount students before you come and play here?

FK: No. Pay it forward.
