And there was never too long a period of time where we didn’t spend with each other because we knew that we had to get through this whole thing together, And in doing that we wrote a bunch of new songs. That’s what helped us deal with everything that we had to go through. So tonight we’re going to play some of those new songs for you for the first time.”
