-I did not take or own this photo-
These are the interview questions that I asked and all answers are by Pierce The Veil's Vic Fuentes.
1. How did the band start?
-The band started with just my brother Mike and I about five years ago now. We didn't become a full band until about a year into the project, after Mike and I had written and recorded the first album. Soon after we were fortunate enough to find Tony and Jaime in San Diego and since then we have been touring our asses off.
2. How did you get the name for the band?
-I got the name randomly from a class in college. The teacher was talking about "piercing the corporate veil" so I related the term more to real life. With the idea that if you have a problem in your life that is building up and bringing you down, sometimes the best thing that you can do is to cut the problem out completely at the source, before things build up and hurt you over time.
3. Are there any special traditions you have when preparing for a show?
-We all hang out in the bus or our RV and listen to music together. We also developed a little backstage song that we sing every night right before we walk out onstage.
4. How it is on this tour so far?
-This is one of the best tours we have ever been on! It has been so nice to finally hear kids singing our new songs on a real club tour. Plus, all of the bands are friends of ours from Warped Tour, so we are all having fun and hanging out after the shows.
5. What is one unforgettable tour (or tour memory)?
-I will never forget when I knocked off our AC unit on top of our RV trying to go under a low bridge in New Jersey. It left a huge hole in our roof and of course it rained for like three days after that. Needless to say I am well aware of our height now.
6. Do you guys have any other hobbies (besides making music)?
-Yes, but they are all pretty nerdy haha! Jaime is a yo-yo master and can do magic, Tony can do a Rubik's cube in less than two minutes and collects Star Wars toys. I guess one sort of cool thing is we all love soccer and bring a ball on every tour we do.
7. If you weren't a musician, what would you be and why?
-I would have most likely continued with college for graphic design. I had to quit to start a life of touring full time. No regrets!
8. If you had to listen to one artist for the rest of your life, who would it be?
-Seems cliche to say, but it would have to be The Beatles. They just have so much diversity and so many songs that it's hard to compete with any other band.
9. Do you prefer to play in small venues or larger venues? Why?
-I like both for different reasons. We love a huge stage because we get to run around and do a lot of fun things that we can't do on small stages. Small venues are always fun because they are sweaty and chaotic. I love being able to grab a fan's hand when they reach out or look right into their eyes while they are singing and connect with them on a new level.
10. If you guys were to describe yourself in simple word choice...what would you say?
-Mexicore
11. What has been your biggest challenge as a band? Have you been able to overcome that challenge? If so, how?
-The biggest challenge is honestly trying to make enough money to continue touring and also have the means to live while we're home. It's difficult because people don't buy CD's like they used to, so we have to make most of our money on merch and T-shirts. We have been lucky enough to make enough to fuel the fire so we are happy.

Please, don't forget the drummer:

This was actually a slightly tricky shot, as the white light here is from a very short-duration, high-intensity light near the back of the stage. We'll just call it a strobe.
I do love lighting like this, though, due to the highly feathered look of the effect.

He was old and silent. He didn't say nothing, he was just silent and played his violin. He is a man who certainly has a lot of trouble, but I felt that he was so free, laid-back. I do not know if something is bothering him or not, but all I know is that he is not so rushed and crazy as today's people.
