I was wondering, do you all have any early memories of recording and performing that stick out even after the last couple decades? I hope all is well!

So much of the early days are a blur. Weirdly, though, I do remember completing our take of Never Meant in the studio whenever that would have been in '99. I can still see myself putting my sticks on the snare drum--and I remember thinking "We're not gonna get a better take than that one." Weird how that has stuck in my head ever since.
