I was in a really crummy pop-punk band. I think we did a whole bun

I was in a really crummy pop-punk band. I think we did a whole bunch of Blink-182 covers, and we were on the fringe of losers and jocks. So we invited all the cool kids to come watch us play in our bass players brothers bedroom. And it was terrible, but everyone thought we were so cool. – Nate Ruess

Occasionally I can get comfortable enough to talk, but I spend a lot of my days not talking, especially when Im at home and not on tour. – Nate Ruess
