Note from Moderator: These answers are thanks to Shannon.

what is the thing you miss the most of your beginning as a band?

Maybe I miss being able to walk around the venues being unnoticed other than that aaaaaall goooood!

Now that you're booking huge venues, are you interested in doing smaller intimate venues anymore?

We do actually play some smaller venues sometimes... There is something to said playing a smaller venue after playing bigger venues. A little more intimate and a little more ol' school... It's fun.

You get a lot of stuff from your fans, what do you really do with it? If you have a garage sale can we come?

We are collecting as much as we can and might have a MUSEUM OF MARS!

What about the Artifact? When will the documentary come out?

Soon.

It seems that with TIW, you've come full circle with S/T all about exploration, ABL about self perception and awareness, and TIW about struggle and freedom (from what I feel they are about) are you then going to come out with a 4th album that will incorporate what made each of those albums great (drum solo's, electronics, the outerspacy guitar riffs, more screamy vocals, and echelon choirs) into one?

We could. We'll all have to wait and see!

I'm curious, has there ever been a prank war between you guys? If so, what's one of the best pranks played- by who and to who? You guys seem like a wild and crazy bunch if kept in confined spaces for too long, I can see pranks being played left and right.. Like what you did to Violent Soho at their last show touring with you. (You crazy kids!)

We sometimes have pulled pranks on other people but never on each other.

Do you ever believe there will come a time where all the words in eternity, and every combination possible of them, will already be used in music, and it will be literally impossible to come up with new lyrics?

You're right... It will turn into whistles, grunts and groans and some snapping of fingers and hand clapping.

Is Bart Cubbins going to direct all the videos from now on?

Hope so.

Would you guys ever consider translating, and then recording, your songs into other languages?

That would be interesting.

[ChloEchelon]

Shocked to see them lurking on here so soon!

[LateToTheParty]

WooHoo!!!!!! Thanks Shannon!!!!!!!!

[Sam Linnett]

terrible... sorry... the fans on this forum are not interested in those questions apart form Artifact. this is a joke.
why cant you ask them why they continue to play pretty much EXACTLY the same setlist over and over and over again when they've been touring for 2 years. fed up with this all now!!!!

i completely appreciate the time you've taken to answer these questions so i'm really sorry for sounding like an ungrateful moaner but i am a massive fan and i really want you to play more varied setlists! i'm just very passionate about this band.
i've seen 30STM on the TIW tour in Wembley, Lincoln, London O2 Arena - all the setlists were pretty much the same.

*thanks Shannon. For the middle finger, too. Tomo's tongue looks like a triad up there^. heh, weird!

i am sure they heard just about every question, complaint, compliment these crazy fucking fans could come up with but yes a better setlist would be great. I am sick of going to a video and hearing the same shit. Isn't it sad that the only time people can really tell the fututre is if you are going to a mars concert.



and seriously i want to see artifact like now. and fuck i'm in a grumpy mood. i can just tell.
