Great interview

I love this part:

"You guys are really involved with the fans. Will you be able to keep that up while touring?

I know we've made measures to definitely keep up with our fans. On our bus, we made sure we have satellite, and we bought computers so that we can be connected with the fans all through the whole tour, and keep them up to date as far as what's going on with the shows, what was cool about particular shows, how we're feeling. Just letting people understand what it's like to tour on this big, massive scale."

You're finally going to meet up with your old "Rock Star" rival on tour, J.D. Fortune. How do you feel about that?

I'm excited to see INXS as the new INXS. INXS 2.0, I guess you'd say, as the real deal now; see what they sound like and see how they interact. I'm sure there's always gonna be rivalry. You always want to be the brightest shining band of the night. We're definitely the underdogs, but I think people are gonna see that we're hungry, and people are gonna see the amount of energy we put out. And we're going to do our best to be the best band out there.

Thank you Cindy!

I thought this was a particularly nice sentiment:

Lovehammers used to drive themselves to gigs in a van; now you have your own tour bus. Were you able to keep the same crew you've worked with over the years?

We definitely have kept everybody from our crew to go along for the ride, because this is kind of a realization of their dream, too. … We got our management [Doc McGhee] that's just so old-school and soldiers of touring with bands like Motley Crue and Bon Jovi; these people know how to put together tours. We're definitely a tight, old-school unit. It feels really good; it's all about everybody that's helped us get here and bringing everybody along.
