Quotes
Joel: "No offence guys, but none of us are really that cool."
Chris: "Its not cool to be cool."

Talking about his Dave Grohl shrine: "I have a shrine, it sits in the back and like every single night I have to go in the back and i just get down, I pay my homage, get down on my knees and light 57 candles. They're in the back. Then I just chant words, that really don't make sense, just grunts and noises and I do the sound for 2 hours every night."

"Sometimes Billy is very polite."

"It's actually triplets - it's me, Joel and Benji."
