MSandt Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 So, reading the PDF a bit more, this is how it seems to have happened: -TTS managed to raise only about a million dollars between September 2017 and September 2018 (this was their first offering). -TTS had to resort to various merchant loans (as opposed to proper bank loans the company could never qualify for), some carrying a prohibitive interest rate of 30% (!!!). -Tom then established a line of credit with TTS to pump his own money into the company essentially for free to keep it going. -Jen leaves and takes the kids with her. Edit:-Tom resurrects AvA and starts flirting with blink. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, I still really like that song. That's just the one part of the song where I always think maybe they could have put something else in there. But as a whole I do really like that song Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny that they covered Cat Like Thief since I've been binge listening to this song for the last couple of days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its just me and an electric or acoustic guitar. Actually this one is full band: Me on guitar and vocals, my pal Anthony on bass and I believe we used a different drummer for this ... can't remember his name though. We never finished it though. Dude that song is so catchy I wanna get it in bed. Imagine some harmonies in the chorus though, would have lifted even more! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we never finished it ... we were gonna treat this album https://m.soundcloud.com/the-abbreviators/sets/insurgent-pepper like a demo and redo the songs properly (plus I had written a few more to replace a couple that sucked) and American Love was the first to get worked on ... we made it exactly as far as laying down the music and lead vocals and dropped the whole project. You can hear the demo version of American Love on the soundcloud I linked to ... life just got shitty and I started drinking hard and the whole plan fell apart and I walked away. I appreciate you digging it though, thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Backing Track Posted July 18, 2019 Report Share Posted July 18, 2019 Sounds like Tom is on X.. Really lucky these guys got him on though, and really cool interview. I would listen to a Tom podcast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only when he starts talking about 'government officials' I facepalm. Otherwise I love his openness about the band and even took a bit if a dig at his synth obsession in AvA? He's not wrong, Chasing Shadows is more stripped down. Saying him Mark and Travis are just like brothers, that argue, kind of a good look at it. I still think he was on X though, acts like everyone I know when they are in it "I lovvee that you guys are doing that. it's so cool it's so good to see you. Wowww" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
