Jon and Richie were interviewed. They talked about how they had initially planned to do a GH, but then the world changed and they had more things to write about. They recorded just a couple of songs at time. They were initially just going to fulfill a commitment to the company, but they started writing again and LA Reid encouraged them to do what was in their hearts because songs that sit on the shelf may lose their relevance (or something like that). They went to England for two weeks and mixed the CD and then threw it away. Jon called it an expensive vacation. They praised John Shanks as a producer and person, said they were really good friends. They're looking forward to opening the new Giants Stadium. Dublin is one of their favorite places to play in the world. They specifically mentioned Spain and Portugal as places where there are always great audiences despite the language barriers. Jon is actually really looking forward to touring for a change. He said he normally dreads it. They talked about how Richie had been through a rough patch but was back on his game this time. Jon compared him to the Energizer Bunny. Jon said they weren't sure how they were going to end the tour, but he threw out the idea of possibly doing a multiple night stand at Madison Square Garden. They loved doing the multiple nights at the Prudential because they could sleep in their own beds.
