Jared, I'm lucky enough to have already shared my artwork with you in your AMA & Matt, to have asked you on facebook about how we experience synesthesia and surprise you by requesting the green screen footage before the website was even announced. If it's okay, I still have a few more questions I'd like to ask.

  1. Matt: If you could design a trading card collection, what would it be? What would you name it & what picture or information would be on your personal player card?

  2. Who's idea was it & why did you choose to wear mariachi suits in the CLC video? (This sounds strange, but soon you'll see why this is one of the luckiest things that ever happened for me.)

  3. Jared: I really can't thank you enough for being the one to suggest Alison Mosshart, because I'm still in awe and disbelief that my favorite female singer has recorded with my favorite band. Did you discover Alison through Dead Weather or the Kills, have there been any memorable moments together, and have you thought about recording anymore songs with her?

  4. What are your biggest or most ridiculous rational & irrational phobias??

  5. Matt: Which battle is your favorite of the American Civil War? Would you ever wear your union uniform onstage?

  6. Jared: What are your favorite Black Ops & Halo game types? Would you ever play online with us fans?

  7. How does the band feel about people using your music in personal projects? Such as videos, music, or even books. Are there any restrictions or an approval process from the band members or the label?

I also wanted to thank you, not only for your music, but also for your inspiration. Not being from an upper-class background, and having rising university expenses means needing multiple part time jobs. And as embarrassing as it is to admit, especially to you, my main job is working at Wal-Mart. Matt, I stumbled over an interview that said you also used to work there and discovered music by buying rock CDs. And as small as this may be, this gives me so much hope. Because when "Come a Little Closer," plays over the store's loudspeakers, I'm reminded that the same person singing about change and things not always being what they seem is truly being honest. No matter how long or upsetting my workday, for those few moments I actually feel reassured and hopeful knowing that we have both experienced being on the wrong side of a daydream.
