Is there any chance of you guys touring through Brazil?

[30secondstolife]

Could it be possible, that you could play a more mixed setlist, with more classics in it like R-evolve, Capricorn (fullband)?

[Rosie_Real]

This may have already been asked, I haven't read through all of the questions...
It's a three-parter.
Who composed the piano part for "Alibi"?
Is there any piano sheet music for "Alibi" (~ I can read music and play, but cannot do it by ear), if so where could we find it?

Q: you love fan interaction. So would you ever dare play a gig where you'd let the fans pick the setlist first? Like in a poll on here (not twitterland  ) I'd love to see the result of that...

I'm quoting myself as I just came upon this by another band. A belgian band called dEUS let fans pick their COMPLETE setlist from their six albums for this week's Lowlands Festival (in The Netherlands) and Pukkelpop festival (in Belgium) this week.

Sorry the link is in dutch but it basically says that the setlist was chosen by fans on the 3VOOR12 (dutch) website and Studio Brussel (belgian radiostation)

So yeah I'd still love to know if 30STM would ever consider this, especially since they are so keen on fan interaction and this seems to take it to another level in the live shows...

That's actually a great idea. I've been watching their early gigs with S/T songs played in them for the past hour and I'm feeling so deprived here! Those gigs were incredibly exciting!
But unfortunately this new fanbase (yes, I agree I'm one of them) which is probably like 40% of the whole fans, would like TIW more than anything else. Also the setlist is 15songs max (if you include acoustics which are not played fully) and from what I saw in the 'favorite playlist' thread, there's a huge variation in what fans like.
I don't know how that band did it, I hope it's been successful experience for them.

[LateToTheParty]

I have a question for Jared...what products do u use in your hair? Inquiring minds want to know!

[The-Lies-I-Have-Created]

I guess this counts for the whole band:

You may feel a lot when you are on stage, but what is the one feeling that absolutely controls your bodies when you are up there?

If you could spend just 1 day over again, what would it be & why?

[AGirlThatDrumsIsMoreFun]

Hey This is for Shannon, when did you start playing drums? and whats your opinion on girl drummers?

[viperX]

How can I get the rights to the song for the movie

[exactly_dude!]

What happened to your setlists? I'm really disappointed, I regret buying a ticket. Still love the music, I just don't think it's appropriate to play headlining show with 10 songs.

[Daristeiad]

As a military service member from the U.S. and a veteran of multiple combat deployments, the song Vox Populi really speaks directly to me.  My question is: did you set out to write the lyrics and then fit the music to them? or was it the other way around? Also, and I know this is two questions,  but not having been in a combat situation, how is it possible that you were able to capture the essence of how people are pulled in so many conflicting ways while caught inside the war machine?

See you in 2 days at Hohenems,

Thanks,

Hi, I've got a question for all you guys:

what are your opinions on captive cetaceans? Seeing you are all vegan (respect!) I expect you also do not want animals to be exploited by humans for entertainmentpurposes.
I ask you this because a themepark in Tenerife has posted a video of their killer whales on their facebook page titled "Our kings and queens" which shows the animals doing tricks in a show and your music is playing during the video.
If you are opposed to this industry maybe it would be a good idea to make them aware of your opinion.

Regards,

Medusa

Two of them definately aren't vegetarian #justsaying
Tomo tweeted he liked his steak bloody as hell. Whoops.

With the third he def eats other food than just vegan so I wouldn't classify him as vegan.
He also wears leather...

But yeah animals in captivity is always a sad thing, especially when not held in the right way. I don't know anything about the Orca in Tenerife, but I'll just say... "Free Willy"  

[belladaisy]

You've been to so many countries in this world, not many people can say they have seen as many places as you guys have. If you would have to choose a place to live (like forever) which country would you take? (apart from the U.S)

i'm sure not all of you think the same about it

you were great in schladming

[TheEchelon4]

Which of your songs inspired you the most? (I hope my English is right)

[Carole in Carlisle]

A question for Jared. Do you ever listen to classical music? If so what are your favourite pieces?

To all three of you...

As kids what was the one thing you all enjoyed to do and would always do even when you found new things to do?
