[To this end, the two artists incorporated imagery from the band's past for the cover. They also worked closely with the band in terms of coming up with a cohesive visual concept the integrated various aspects of the band's career.] We wanted to bring our old icon, the disturbed smiley face, whom we call 'the guy,' to life. I came up with a concept that embodied what the record was about, the 'guy' leading an army of people from all walks of life and all colors of skin, with their fists raised in unison, as a symbol of unity, strength and defiance with an azure sky in the background,.. Being a fan of the SPAWN comic book series and the artwork that Todd and his company have done in the past, we could think of no better team to bring this idea to life. We are incredibly pleased with the piece, and think it is the most striking and certainly our favorite of the three covers.

It was completely unintentional, really. We did write a few progressive and more traditional metal songs early on, but I think the band sounds best on the ones we ended up putting on the record. It's refreshing to do a debut album with a new band because there are really no restrictions to what you can do.

Well, there's a few things. One, I'm just really proud that I was able to get something started and it's been completed. And not that F5 is complete by any chance, but just the fact that we just so nonchalantly got in a room and started something and our passion drove us to make sure that the album came out, and now here we are able to talk about an album that's out. So on the one hand, that's kind of an initial goal that feels really good now to have accomplished. Another thing is I'm just really happy to help open the door for the other guys in F5 too. I've been to the big dance now for quite a few years, and I guess that's one of the things I've enjoyed in recent years with the music production I've done and the artist development and now with this band. It's been a fun process to be able to be put in touch with these guys who are so talented and have such great ability, but for some reason haven't had a chance to get up to bat yet. That for me brings me a lot of personal satisfaction, especially with F5.

To bring in the people, you have to have something different. You might not come down because you say you don't like Irish music, for example, but if you come down and check it out, you could find the band is really terrific.

I think that, you know, the odds are good, because they are good songwriters, they're a good band, they're a great band, and they can play

That one ('Shaft') really split the audience. A lot of people didn't like that a white English band was doing a Southern soul classic. But that was part of the beauty of it.... I've always looked to American bands and music for inspiration. Then we put our take on it.

Any squabble Roger and the band have had in the past are so petty in this context, and if re-forming for this concert will help focus attention, then it's got to be worthwhile.

Six dollars is the most ridiculously outrageous price for a concert anywhere. If you don't take advantage of seeing them as a BYU student then you are a fool, you'll never find that price for this big-time band ever again.

Some of us (band members) have September birthdays, and we wanted to have a party.

The pipeline is terrific,.. They've probably got the strongest, best, broadest band of drugs for sale today and in the future. And remember, if you think back to the early 1990s when health-care reform was a big deal, nobody wanted to buy these drug stocks. And if you had bought them, you made a lot of money and we think the same thing is going on with some of the Medicare reform today.

Bob Ferguson, the main singer, formed the band. It was really formed just for one festival and grew through the other singer's brother joining the band. Then a drummer came in and the other drummer's brother left, and so on.

They (the MAS) have reset the mid-point of the band to today's level of the NEER and given we were in the weaker end of the band that means they are locking in some of the Singapore dollar's recent weakness.

We have musicians coming from Chicago, St. Louis and New Orleans to play in the band.

Over the next few weeks there's a very good chance that China is going to widen the band. Global policy makers have a new resolve to settle the issue of currency flexibility with China and they're prepared to have a show-down if necessary.

It was a fun day of entertainment. There was no comparison between the second show and the first show. Any wrinkles from last year were smoothed out. The Marshal Tucker Band was awesome, but it was smoother this year.

All the videos we have done have been our ideas, our concepts. We're a very conscious band of the way we present ourselves onstage and the artwork for the record and everything like that. So every time we do videos, it's the same thing. We sit down with the director and have him make our vision come true.

Yes, there's a reason why some detractors, and even fans, prefer to call the long-running British band ''Depressed Mode.

It's more of a family, we need that. It's easier with a lot of people helping. If one band breaks, they help the others out.
