That's is a very difficult question to answer, because one, I don't know when I'll have the time to finish one, and second of all, I'm always writing, so the material keeps changing. So I don't know what it's gonna sounds like. Uh, the main project of making an album will not be to create new music, but to curate what the best collection will be. Much like any art museum, you know if you have a lot of art, how do you make it cohesive, and how do you make it make the most sense? So, at this point, I don't know [when it will be out or what it will sound like]. There's a few new songs that I took on tour because I wanted to see how people responded to them, and based on the reaction, I might put them on the album, but I don't know. I have no--I don't have a release date or any idea what it's gonna sound like. I just hope that it's soon-ish-- I hope that it's soon, and I hope that it's gonna be, that it's gonna sound like fun.

It's not a return, the boy band phenomenon will always be around because there will always, always, always be teenage girls. That's just how it works. Ten years from now, there will be a new... I mean there was the Beatles and the Beach Boys, and then you have every generation, they just take on different forms. Whether it be all the sudden there's the Bee Gees, then all the sudden there is Duran Duran, then all the sudden there is New Kids on the Block. And then, then there's the Backstreet Boys and N'Sync, and then Jonas Brothers-- There's always been One Direction, there's always gonna be the new group, and all of us, you know, one day--I hope it's a long day, a long time from now--but I'll have kids or grandkids that will listen to something that, you know, they will have never experienced before, and I'll go, "Well, it's just like One Direction." "No it's not, One Direction's old!" But that’s how it’ll happen, you know. It’s just the cycle of, of music and of pop culture, because for teenagers, that's the first time they experience that kind of frenzy. So, there’s always gonna be no lack of teenagers to bring the boy band or girl band thing back to the world.
