This remnant will be replaced soon. The FAQ is back, with a new design! What about prior visitors? There have been nearly one million unique visitors since genesis, and nearly 1.5 million page visits in the last five years alone.

People just don't realize how sensitive we are to what we're playing, and how it feels, and that if we can't relate to the lyrics that we're singing, that's a bad feeling. People don't realize that. If the song represents a part of our lives that was from 10 years ago, then it might feel wrong." -- Mike to The Onion 10/15/97 This page last updated January 26, 2007.
