Anonymous asked: I just saw a video of Envy on the Coast helping you guys sing this armistice. I do not know what to do with myself now that both of you guys are gone. btw this isnt much of a question, just a statement. Sucks you guys are basically gone, but you were awesome while you were around, so thanks for that. A lot of bands break up now a days and no one gives a crap, clearly you guys did something right...

imjusthereforyoutouse asked: Hey there friend :). I was wondering what the writing process was generally like for each song? Musically and lyrically? Did you write lots of lyrics and slowly whittle them down or what? I am very curious. Also, how did you go about doing the programming for each album? I respect you guys as more than just musicians but human beings. My life and passion for life, music, and the written word all...

Anonymous asked: I totally agree with the guy who was talking about the tab book. The guitar parts are so awesome on all your songs I guarantee those things would sell like mad, considering how quickly some of the vinyl packages have sold out. I really wanted a poster or a laminate and all 3 packages that come with those are sold out! NO! Oh well. Anyway I got a question guys. If I were to post a cover of Planning...

Anonymous asked: First id like to add my name to the gaggle of people thanking you for your music. After listening to the early ep and demos and such I cant help but wonder where the 3 part harmonies and 3 guitar parts came from? While 3 guitars I've seen here and there, the way in which there is no "lead" vocal so much as there are 3 singers sharing a song is incredible and rarely (to my knowledge)...

Anonymous asked: Hey guys, this isn't really a question, but rather a suggestion. Today in class we were talking about sleep and I immediately thought "TREOS" cause of the sleep ep thingy, you know. Soooooo then we talked about sleep disorders, more specifically sleep insomnia, and I thought "wouldn't it be cool if on the Sleep EP there was a track called insomnia that was all chaotic and...

Anonymous asked: Hey guys, in reading through some of the posts i saw that you guys use reason for a lot of your electronics and programming. I am using this program as well, but am still rather new to it and would love to learn how to do more things and get more sounds out of it. I am learning a lot just by messing around and watching random youtube videos, but i was wondering how you guys became to be so...

lookatmeimdave-deactivated20110 asked: Have you guys ever thought about compiling a tab book for some [if not all... ;)] of your songs? I'm sure alot of people would purchase them, I know I for one certianly would. i have been itching to learn many of the guitar lines that I just cannot quite work out.

Also I am aware I may be behind somewhat, but what is the deal with the 'Sleep EP'? Is it something that...

drewcaruso asked: I remember anxiously waiting for Mi Fa Mi to come out, and remember some youtube videos surfacing of some of the new songs you guys played at some church in Medway, MA. At that point in time, "Smoke and Mirrors" was named "Until They Become Conscious". In this version of the song, the chorus is a lot more aggressive having Brendan yell the lines "You hide your fangs so...

Yall are amazing and have shaped so many of my interests as an aspiring musician. Since I didnt hear about you until after the farewell was final, I am only acquainted with the Legend that is TREOS. Just to wrap up some recent events here, Your vinyl pre-order sold out in what? 3 days? And the complementary gift cant be downloaded because too many people rabidly want it. Because the masses are...

Not to be greedy or anything…. but, I already have Bell, Book and Candle. (Shirtsleeves was my jam back in the day). So I kinda feel cheated in my free gift. Obviously the only way to fix this is to tour. Starting in Michigan. Specifically the Detroit area & none of this Grand Rapids business. yes? yes.

Anonymous asked: Earlier in a post someone said their favorite old treos lyric was: Our son said, "Arson set our sunset on fire." I love this line and have all of the old stuff with Ben and the early demos with Casey so unless I'm missing something really obvious I can't figure out what song it's from.

we met again this year.
okay so not literally. but skate fest was very goddamn memorable. i dont think i noticed anyone around me. it was just you guys and i. i wish the set would have never ended. and though that is selfish, i traveled back to new york with my heart filled. expressing how much it sucks that i cant go back to 2006 and 07 when i saw you live more times than i can count is only going to sadden me more....

thisisnessie asked: Thank you for posting a link to the EP! =) Do you know where I can hear "Shutter Ghosts"????
I've been looking for a copy of this song for years ever since I googled TREOS lyrics and stumbled across the lyrics to "Shutter Ghosts" after the first time that I saw you guys perform live back in 2005.

Anonymous asked: I am sure somebody has asked this before, but the link to the "free gift" seems to be down. Any word on when it will be back up? PS. Soooooo stoked to see the vids from Skatefest. It was the best concert I have ever been too, esp when you guys first took the stage and Played "Planning a Prison Break". I have never felt so much energy in a crowd or in one place like that, ever....

Anonymous asked: When writing songs with several vocal parts/singers (perhaps more BTHATS-era), how do you determine who sings which lines? Curious if whomever writes the vocal melody sings it "by default", or if there are instances when, say, Brendan writes a melody and goes "Hey, Casey should sing this."

justinbrobara asked: I can easily say TREOS is the band I've seen the most times. Most memorable shows: last show with Ben in Fitchburg, TREOS/Lido Venice show, Halloween dressed as The Wizard of Oz, when me and my brother Crit were on vacation in Arizona and drove two hours to Phoenix to see you, Bamboozle, last Harpers show, and of course Skatefest. BTHATS is, front to back, the most solid CD I've ever...

Anonymous asked: Hey guys, I was about to order bundle 4 when I noticed they were already out of stock (pretty fast huh), so I was wondering if there was another way I could get those awesome posters. Should I settle for the shirt and album only bundle? or should I maybe wait and see if they go back on stock (THEY WILL RIGHT OH GOD PLEASE TELL ME THEY WILL)?

With love, a fan.
