Alex Gaskarth got a lot of love at the 2008 VMA's red carpet on September 7th. Here is a short and sweet breakdown of some of the best video interviews. Don't miss out ... watch them all!

Hey All,

So I am letting you know first .... I (Alex) will be Buzznet's host on the red carpet for the 2008 VMA's on September 7th.

I am going to be doing the red carpet interviews for Buzznet, but I could use your help in figuring out what questions to ask. Read on, my friends

Hey Peeps!

Buzznet hooked us up with a nice video camera for a few days on Warped Tour. Leave your comment on this journal post and ask us a question. If it is a question for a particular band member be sure to let us know. Deadline to respond to this journal with your question (s) is August 13th at 11:59 pm PST. Do you really need more direction than that? Well then...

We just set-up a giveaway with YM magazine where you can win a new digital camera, along with some signed items and some sweet All Time Low gear. WORD!

ENTER HERE..NOW!

Good eve-- errr... morning, yall.

I can't sleep.

I'm stuck in a tour-induced time warp, meaning my hours of operation fall between 1 pm and 4-5 am. Its ridiculous. Since we hit home yesterday morning, I find myself killing time by watching Fresh Prince marathons and hitting up the diner for late-night pancakes (chocolate chip, please.) Despite my inability to get back into the swing of every day life, (the kind of life NOT lived on a tour bus) I've gotta say that it feels wonderful to be home.
Truth be told I started going a little crazy towards the end of the Boys Like Girls tour, and the thought of being home for the holidays became more and more appealing with each and every mile marker we rolled by. Now don't get me wrong, by no means am I bummed about my band, or the amazing lifestyle we somehow managed to fall into... but I will go on the record and say that after spending the good portion of this year on the road, I'm thrilled to be laying in my own bed. Its for this reason I felt it fitting that I share a little somethin' somethin' from the collection of my mid-tour musings with the world. Take it however you want to, I'm not going to explain myself, but pleeaaaase let me know your thoughts n' feelings if you see fit.

Here goes:

I write for no one but myself,
so why is it that every word,
every line,
every thought,
is critiqued, judged, and cast aside,
as my hands race to punch "apple s"?
I swear I can't explain why those two keys aren't either broken,
(you know, the kind of broken where the key just sort of sticks in place until you pry it up with a number two pencil, or an unfolded paper clip,)
or faded to the point where neither figure is at all discernible.
It is, after all, a race my hands never win. (LOSERS!)

I am in control of no one but myself,
or so I've been told,
over and over again,
but low and behold,
some scholars are liars.
Who would have thunk that the educated could be so misleading,
in times when all a kid needs,
is to be told that at some point in life,
we all lose our minds.

I care about everyone but myself,
unless you're listening.
I'm always watching,
always waiting for the next available moment in time,
when I can lash out and make something of myself,
for myself,
because unless I'm doing,
I'm wasting,
and there are too many out there who are far too quick to judge.

I hope to better myself,
to make ends meet,
and find answers to all of these rhetorical questions,
posed lightly on a virtual plane,
so as not to overwhelm my OVER-WORKED brain. (poor brain x.x)
I just want to set foot on my own door-step for once,
take a big, deep breath,
and realize that once again,
I belong to an address,
not the other way around.

Its easy to forget how to appreciate your front door,
when you're always walking through it.


--FIN--

There you have it. Like I said before, let me know what you take from it, I know what I was feeling at the time, but how's it make YOU feel?
A big thanks to anyone and everyone who came out to watch us play this year; its been one of the most intense, but amazing ones I've lived so far, so thank you all for being a part of it. I can't wait for the next one. Man... I'm turning 20 in a couple weeks. Crazy. Anyway, I'm gonna try to get some sleep.

Th-th-th-that's all folks!

Love always,

Alex

Today's Therapists - All Time Low

In our newest installment of Rock N Roll Therapy, Alex from All Time Low give advice to Buzznet members that are facing some tough personal issues.




danielsgirl101: ok my ex and i realy liked eachother and we did it but like a day later he would just ignore me and he wouldnt talk 2 me or anything enthen he calls me saying its over and i was so upset and my friend called saying that the only reason he went out wit me was cus he wanted 2 do it with me but i dont know and now i might be pregnant and i dont know wut 2 do so some 1 please help me!!!

Alex: The single, most important thing you could ever remember in a situation like this is not to put your trust in someone without fully understanding who that person really is. Don't just give it up on the basis that you "like" a person. You've got things they want... Make them earn it. Obviously you're a little too late there, but all's not lost. My recommendation; listen to your favorite music, find somebody who gives you the chills, and USE PROTECTION!  ps. If you really think you're pregnant, my suggestion would be to visit Planned Parenthood asap. Good luck!
