This made my day! Also, I always assumed that flaky band members/musicians were your biggest peeves, considering a few of your songs mention it(Gear Isn't Expensive, Traveler's Insurance). It's quickly becoming one of mine as well.

Hi Evan and Kevin, thanks for doing this AMA! My question is about being a young musician. I'm 16 and play bass in a band that plays shows and has even gotten some radio play(I'm not bragging, just informing you of the seriousness of the band). I get frustrated a lot of times being in high school because whenever I'm not playing music, even though there's a lot of things going on, I feel like I'm not doing enough. I know both of you were also in bands while you were in school. What was your experience in high school like? How did you combat any similar frustration, if you felt that way?

P.S. You guys both are both a big inspiration for me as a musician and as an aspiring songwriter!
