Written by David on www.davidcookofficial.com:

Hey everyone. Just checking in to give you guys an update on everything…

First off, we are sad to announce that Joey will no longer be playing bass for us. We are certainly sad to see him go, and wish him nothing but the best as he moves on to his next musical endeavor. Our good friend, Monty Anderson, will be filling in for the immediate future while we attempt, amidst the shows ahead, to find a permanent, viable replacement.

Secondly, we will be performing on August 7th in Central Park in NYC, as part of Good Morning America’s Summer Concert Series. We will be sharing the stage with Adam and Kris from Season 8 of AI, so be sure to come out early and make some noise. Smiling

I really hope we get to see all your faces at the shows we have coming up. The crowds have been great so far, and we can’t thank you enough for supporting us as we go through this crazy experience.

See you soon, kiddos!

~D

P.S. – Be sure to check out Our Lady Peace’s new album, “Burn, Burn”. It’s amazing. Just saying.

The Forum: Talk to me about influences that have really shaped the way your music sounds.

Cook: Wow, I mean, there’s a lot of groups, bands like 8stops7 and Our Lady Peace and Big Wreck. You know, growing up, I watched my dad play guitar, so that was probably a huge influence. And then really just, kind of, the ’90s grunge movement: you know, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, stuff like that.

So when you’re just kicking back listening for your own pleasure, what do you listen to?

Actually – and this is not a shameless plug – the band that’s opening for us right now is a band called The Crash Kings. (They’ve got a) great record out, self-titled. Came out in April, and I’ve been listening to that. I’ve been listening to a lot of Ben Folds. I actually just bought the last two Underoath records. Listening to Erin McCarley and then a band out of Chicago called Oh My God.

I believe you have writing credits on about 10 of the 13 tracks on your album. How important is it to you to have a hand in writing the music that you record?
