I played violin, alto and bari sax, piano, and guitar before I started playing bass when I was 12.
-
The only Blink album I really celebrated was Enema of the State. It is definitely Matt Serra's favorite Blink record.
-
I like 1 or 2 Yuenglings from time to time.
-
That song is definitely easy enough to learn the roots to for a beginner. It might be a little fast though.
-
You've asked this before, it's even more weird the 2nd time around. I'm good though. Thanks for asking!
-
I could be wrong, but even the most liberal people I know support the troops fully. Soldiers are heros regardless of how you feel about the war.
-
I thank God daily I don't know the answer to this question.
-
I'm a throgs neck man. Whitestone is pretty sweet though.
-
I read a quote from Horace Panter of the Specials in Bass Player magazine years ago. He said "picking is for noses, not for basses" . I took this to heart, and pick my nose as often as the day allows.
-
haha I think this is a classic example of over playing for sure! Thanks though!
-
Little bit of both I guess. I dig gay people, guns, and abortion. I've never met a politician, and I don't think I want to. Way more weird than the music industry for sure.
-
I think we just wanted to go in a whole new direction and experiment with that.
-
I was full of bad ideas back then!
-
Off the top of my head I think my biggest contribution was Sympathy for The Martyr off of Straylight's 1st record. I wrote the bassline that started out the song, then the whole outro chord progression.
-
Not at all, except for the energy and the honesty. This record will blow TAYF out of the water. We were kids then, we're men now!
-
Me too. We're working on it. Straylight still has some financial loose ends to tie up before we put $$ into putting that record out.
-
It would be nice. It's getting better though. Ice cream made from coconut milk is pretty new, but awesome!
-
I don't think anyone in the band would classify themselves as atheist. All of us are definitely not straight edge. I like it when people just do what works for them. Life can be hard and insanely complicated! Do what makes you happy as long as you're not hurting anyone else. I'm a live and let live kinda guy!
-
Thanks iJack. We're going to keep going until we're all wrinkly old men.

Shaun Cooper’s Bio
I played bass in Taking Back Sunday, then Straylight Run & Destry at the SAME TIME! Then I didn't. Then I started playing bass in TBS again. I like playing the bass, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and drinking beer.
