music school. Actually we saw him with his beautiful blond girlfriend.

S- Now uh, are you with her now?
Trevor- No. Actually what happened was we tried to roll him for his girlfriend
in the parking lot. I swear to god this is true. I-I wouldn't lie, but this is
true. We were like "Damn. Let's go talk to this guy just to get with this
girl."
*Laughing in background*
Trevor- And we started talkin' to him, and it's like "Oh my god. We got
like similar intrests in music and stuff." And uh, next thing you know,
it's like he's in the band. And uh we've been writing, and uh producing, and
playing ever since, so. 9 years it's almost yeah.
S- 9 years? Well you're only 9!
Trevor- *Laughs*
Hausman in bckgrd- How old are you?
S- How old are you?
Trevor- I'm actually, I'm 27. Yeah. The growth has been stunted for the last 9
years so. That's why I look like I'm 18 so.
S- Dude man, you look very young, and-like, so. Now where are you from, what
part?
Trevor- Uh North Vancouver,
Canada.
S- So you guys all met up there?
Trevor- Uh yeah, actually. At Capallona College in North Vancouver ay.
Hausman in bckgrd- How'd youget rid...
S- How'd you get rid of the accent? How'd you get rid of the accent?
Trevor- Oh it's still there. I say "aboat, oout".
Carson in bckgrd- Aboat. *Laughing*
Trevor & S-*at same time* Oout and aboat
S- Whenever beer comes up, so does the accent.
Trevor- Yeah exactly. *Laughs*
Carson- Do all the Canada slang words, like "eh".
S- And now Canada's slang words, from our friends from soul Decision.
Trevor- That's the only one it's "eh". And I think that replaces the
statement you guys always say uhh, "Know what I'm saying?" Is that
what you guys say no?
S- "Know what I'm sayin'?"
Trevor- Yeah. I think we say, uh, like, "So I got this friend eh",
and uhh i-it's basic...
S- "So I got this friend you know what I'm sayin'?"
Trevor- Exactly! Right? So there you go.
S- So
Trevor- It's a lot shorter.
S- But like when you're doin' the alphabet, how do you do it?
Trevor- *Laughs* Doin' the alphabet! It's A, B, C...what the hell?
S- Ay B, ay C, ay...
Trevor- Our, our zzz. What, you guys are zed or z?
S- No, we're z.
Trevor- Z. We're zed, right.
S- Where'd zed come from? Whose Zed?
Trevor- It's stupid because, it doesn't rhyme. *Laughing* You know?
S- It doesn't! No.
Trevor- At the end of it. A, B, C, D...it's like and zed. It's like "What
the hell?"
