Normally I'd say he's full of it but he also revealed he knew everyone hated Because We Can so there's something there!

I really enjoyed it. I like Jon's attitude lately. He is honest, he's humble and he shows some kind of passion and retrospection.
He's repeated many times that he don't wanna rewrite Bad Name and Prayer. He never mentiones IML. Probably its copycats are too natural for him and he sees them as the typical BJ sound. That's why I'm so happy that for that album he didn't try to prove anything in terms how big the band is or whatever but reall wrote songs of topics that inspired him. I hope he expects that the album wouldn't be a commercial success and sticks to creating music this way.
