Hanson answers: Hello! Welcome to the chat!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
roses_4_tay asks: "hanson are you there yet".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hanson answers: Yes, finally! Thanks for waiting!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
itzmoey asks: "Hey guys! I was just wondering if you were thinking
about doing a double album? I think that would be totally awesome!!
Thanks! Holly, Dallas, TX".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hanson answers: At this point we've written so many songs we're
actually considering that
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
musicalbabe asks: "Hey\~! You guys have opened up a lot of new bands
to me such as Lifehouse and Travis(whom I really enjoy the music of) and
was wondering if there are any other bands that you guys enjoy and
could share with us? Thanks! \~\*Sarah Shoop of Bend Oregon\*\~".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hanson answers: Well all those bands are really cool and it's always
cool to pay tribute to the band that we like. We're actually going to be
doing some guest chats very soon. David Garza next Wednesday and then
Phantom Planet after that ...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
lucile asks: "Hey guys ! You rock ! Your music is awesome ! I'm French
and I'd like to know how it was like to work at the Chateau Marouatte
in France ? Lucile, 20, France.".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hanson answers: Yes we did enjoy France quite a lot when we were doing
this songwriting the last couple of months. I actually ended up writing
a song in France, which was a very cool experience. There's information
in MOE 11 about France.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
itzatwin asks: "When collaborating on a song, do you think you
contribute more to the music, or the lyrics? - Whitney and Rebecca from
Milwaukee, WI".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hanson answers: It's easier if you collaborate in music because
definitely lyrics are something you stew over for hours or weeks. You can't
have music without lyrics and vice versa.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
zarriah2001 asks: "When is the next issue of MOE going to be coming out?".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hanson answers: Right now, MOE 11 is at the printers and we will be
putting a preview out on HansonNet before we get it out in the mail.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
itzatwin asks: "Is Ed Robertson of BNL as goofy in person as he seems?
- Rebecca from Milwaukee, WI".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hanson answers: Yes Ed is a very funny and cool guy to spend time
with, and a very very good lyricist. He always has a way of coming up with
creative and unique lyrics.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
madelinehitz asks: "Zac said on the hotline that there could be plans
for a tour before the release of the album? Is that still a possibility?".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hanson answers: There has been a lot of talk for touring before the
record releases because we are itching to get out on the road and play
music. We also think it's a very good way to promote the release of the
record, but we're still finishing recording the material now.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
satomi asks: "Hey guys! I've been hearing many rumors about a
documentary w/ the title of "Your Illusion." What exactly is the truth to these
rumors and when would it be released?? forever your fans, Satomi,
Nicole, and Toshi (Bay Area, CA Hanson fans)".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hanson answers: (Taylor) We are recording a documentary right now,
filming everything from the recording and writing to ... chatting on
HansonNet. We're still not sure when it's going to be released because it's
a documentary and they tend to take a while.

musically. Noone ever changes their minds, you just have to follow your
instincts. This next record will be unpredictable for sure, but we just hope
it doesn't suck.

Hanson answers: We actually wrote Wake Up on the TGA tour. It's been
on the top of lists for songs on this next record. We're psyched that
you'll get a chance to hear it before the record comes out so you get to
hear hints of what the record will sound like.
