DB: Did you too live in "The Lawrence Arms" apartments in Chicago? If so, what was that like?

NH: I never had a room there, but I spent a lot of time on their couch. It was one of Brendan and Chris' college apartments, and boy did it show. There was a garbage room at one point. No more taking the garbage out back and putting it in the dumpster. Pretty gross at times. I remember there was a dead mouse next to some little girls underwear outside of the back door. It's one of the more disturbing memories I have from that place. That and the weird crack heads that would shit in the hallway.

According to a blog post on Red Scares MySpace The Falcon are working on a new album. I hope you guys are as exicted we are. 

"What else is there...? Well, believe it or not, The Falcon are in the process of writing a new record. Should be interesting. Sundowner just wrapped up a tour with Chuck Ragan and Cobra Skulls just got home from their tour with Against Me! The Methadones and La Plebe have some upcoming shows and that means you should invest NOW in various alcoholic beverage companies cuz there's about to be a spike in sales."
