311 Quotes:
I'd like to have 311 play with Ween someday even thought their concert last week wasn't the best I've seen in the four shows I've been to! But I'd still love to play with you guys. So, call up our management and we'll work it out baby!
P-Nut

We put so much time into the album that I know everyone in the band loves every song. We made sure we didn't put [on the album] any song that anyone was iffy' on. We love everything and we put well over a year into writing the music. We fined tuned it. It as strong of an album that we have ever put out. Point blank!
P-Nut

There's a Dr. Israel from New York who has a really good album out. I would be interested in performing with him. P-Nut?
SA Martinez

No, unfortunately I don't. My dad never spoke Spanish in the house, probably because my mom didn't speak it. Yeah, but I wish I could now, that would be awesome.
