    I used to like Three days grace more than Breaking Benjamin for the longest time. but the day I checked out the Dear Agony album, as soon as I heard Fade Away, I Will Not Bow, and Crawl back to back, i ended up liking Breaking Benjamin more than Three days grace ever since, the vocal melodies Ben writes are mind blowing

I really relate to Ben's comments about his childhood at the flea market, my family use to sell at the flea markets too. Only difference for me was that it in the 90s early 2000's it was bootleg megazords and power rangers being sold, I loved those cheap toys.

    What an awesome interview! Love seeing the personal, reminiscent things. My dad's from Montrose. I asked him if he remembered the English Town thing and he said he'd gone once. Ben... please, please, PLEASE let us know when you'll be there! I WILL make the trip.
    You're my biggest influence musically and I'd love to get a chance to meet you. Selfish plug...I'll be at the Raleigh NC show, unfortunately in lawn (due to finances). You have no idea how much you and your lyrics have impacted my life. I've followed you even through the court proceedings and everything (okay, now I sound like a whacko 😂). But seriously. I'm never usually a fanboy...but you? I'd love to get a chance to meet and/or sing/jam with you. I know almost every one of your songs on guitar and definitely every lyric you've ever written. If you can remember, 8/18 in Raleigh...I'd love just a simple shout out. I know I'll be all the way back in lawn but damn... you'd make my year.
    This interview reminded me of the time you surprised that kid in Wilkes Barre at his house! What an incredible thing to do. I can't imagine how that would feel for me.
    Thanks for all you do and I sincerely wish you the best!
