ummm intresting derek is the hott drummer right?

i had a dream about you guys (not anything gross). Ok you guys came to Ziggys and for some odd reason we had to stop the show and then i went back stage and i was talking to Sean and we were playing games. We had alot in common in dream and then Bam Margera came in his underwear (dont ask why). And when the show was going on i caught a drum stick (just like ziggys) and i was fighting this girl for it. It was fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey guys, I saw one of the posts about somebody having a dream about you. I had one too, but i don't remember it now. Next time you are in Texas I hope to see you. I probably won't though. I had my bro listen to you guys (he's into rap and hates and type of rock) and he actually thought ya'll were pretty good.

Hey...
Sorry about your bus. That sux, its been humid all day. I hate humidity.
I've always wanted to go to The Rock And Roll Hall of Fame, if you go have fun!
Much love, take care.
Love, peace and chicken grease,
Chelsea

I just saw you guys for the first time last night in Cliffton Park. All that I have to say is WOW! I was soooo impressed with the show. I wish you were the headlining band though so that it could've been a bit longer. It was simply amazing. I hate to say this...but I really didn't pay too much attention to Trapt because I was just so into your performance. And Derek, you are so hot. Thanks for the hug, and the autograph. I hope to see you guys again the next time you come around. It was an amazing show, thank you!

This is to Derek, Cody, Ryan, Sean, and Chuck. This is Christy I went to the syracuse and rochester shows. I got to chill with you guys at the party in rochester, it was great. Derek, thank you so much for driving my car back for me, I really appriciate it. Both times I saw you guys live you were great and I'm looking forward to you guys coming up to this area again. Cody, you will never be forgotten, kristen and I owe you. Thank you all for letting us chill with you on Tuesday. Come to Syracuse again soon.

Much Love

Christy

Hey, I just wanted to ask all of you how long you've been playing? And how long has Sean been singing, because I play guitar/drums/bass and I am trying to sing better, and I was wanting to know how long it took to develop the awesome voice he has. I'm 15 and I have seen you guys live, twice, and I want to see you again when you play Cityfest Live this year in Charlotte, NC. I was there last year for the Foo Fighters and there were a LOT of people there, and it was CRAZY for a while...there was a mosh pit going on that I almost fell in, and I wasn't even part of the pit! It's just people get so wild and they go crazy and they actually had to help me out of the crowd to get air (I have some asthma) It's crazy! Anyway...you guys are awesome. Hope you can answer my question about how long you all have been playing/singing, but if not, I know you are busy. By the way, I talked to you for a while, Derek, at the February 7th show in North Carolina. No offense but I didn't realize how busy your tour was at the time and asked Sean to come out and support a local band, LMAO I felt like a dumbass afterwards! I'm sure you remember the dumb tall guy with the white Headsnap shirt..haha! Later

hey! ok - question, are you guys coming to Tucson Arizona anytime soon? Or somewhere close?? Well - you should if you're not because I know tons of people would love to get you guys down here! You're completely amazing ... really good songs too, of course! K - well I just wanted to ask you that!!
Love,
Gaby

I just wanted to say that I just finished reading all of your past journals, and I am amazed at how interactive you are with your fans. I can understand Ryan not answering back and giving shout outs to everyone, because there are just so many fans. And Derek, to those that you do shout out to, I'm sure that made their day/week/even year. I've had your cd since August, it's awesome, and I had always wanted to go to a show. I'm so happy that I was able to last night. I missed the show in Poughkeepsie, but I heard it rocked. I hope to you see you guys again soon!

Love you guys!
~Nicole~

wow this is so cool, Derek said that i am proving to be the #1 fan in rancho cucamonga and that i can keep my title! thats so awesome. Happy early birthday Abbey. how old are you gonna be? Hope you guys get the AC fixed soon. that really sux coz i know how that feels. my 6th period geometry class doesnt have AC and i have p.e. 5th period so yeah its always hot.oh speaking of p.e., you know what happened yesterday? we had to run a mile for this california state thingy and girls had to get under 10 minutes to pass, guys had to get under 8.30. my teacher said that if you run it under the those times, you dont have to run the mile next week. so i said to myself, yes i am gonna do this, i have to get under 10. well i ran and i got 10.25. that is the best time i have gotten for a mile since 7th grade! coz i usually get 13 or 14. and so the bell rang and i went to the locker room and my face was not red, but PURPLE! it was so scary. i felt like throwing up. then i went to my math class and we had a test. while i was writing my name on my paper, my hands were shaking. after all that i still have to run next week, which sux coz i tried the hardest i have ever tried and i was so close!!! i missed it by only 25 seconds. oh hey squee, we live close by! oh and Sam, yes Derek is the hot drummer.

Hey Derek!!!!!!!!!! Again!!!!!!!!!! I'm sorry about your bus AC, I guess I shouldn't complain about my math teachers room being so freakin cold. I bet you would love to be in that math room. I was so mad when my dad said I couldn't get home-schooled. Wait I am still mad.... Oh well I need to keep my comunication skills (I am not a people person) I had to run the mile today for my physical fitness test and the passing time is 10 mins. and 30 sec. I made it in 11 mins. and 1 sec. WOOPDIE FREAKIN DOO!!!!!!!!!! My P.E. teacher was proud of me???? I am not FAT!!!!!!! I weigh 115lbs for christ sakes. And after runing that mile I noticed that the blisters on the back of my heels bursted and they were starting to bleed..... ouchie.... Well I'm sorry if this is long I just wanted to tell you alot that's been going on..... Oh yeah I have to ask some questions so e-mail I need to start my website and I need some answers strait from your mouth.... Well yeah I g2g
Love *Squee* (Kathrine)

hey!! CLEVELAND ROCKS!! i live like 45 minutes away from there!! hahaha!! you guys should preform there... i would have my cousin come and pick me up (who lives in cleveland) and come to stalk you, but shes working... no dont worry, i wont stalk you... if i ever see you out on the streets i would probably run up to you guys and jump on you... no not really... that would probably be really mean. my friend cortney is going to your show tomorrow (i cant because i am poor and i dont have a ride!! tear tear for me!) and she is taking my smile empty soul shirt and having you guys sign it! im gonna call around to some places tomorrow to get some guitar lessons... i cant wait!! heheheeee. im gonna try to start up a band and stuff... i really cant play the guitar yet. i dunno... i suck really bad now. i tried those guitar for dummies books, but i am stupid (not really) and i cant figure them out. that says alot... oh yeah... you gotta put on your drew glasses when you say this... CLEVELAND ROCKS!! hahaha!

Hey your show on monday in toledo rocked! come back you guys are awesome, i have listened to nothing but your cd for the last 2 days. it is great.

Hey your show on monday is toledo was great...you guys need to come back soon!

Hey guys, me again. Derek, Glad to hear you’re having a good time. What kind of drums do usually shop for? I love my set, but she needs an upgrade, any suggestions? I’m thinking about staying “old-school, with some decent Tamas, but there’s so much new stuff out there. By the way, do you remember the redhead from the Alley Katz and the 930 club? Hope to refresh your memory at the Norva. :o)
Sean, I don’t know if you recall, but my friend interviewed you for a newspaper called the Free Lance Star, in a magazine there called “IT” after your show at Alley Katz. Anyways, I was featured in it, and of course they edit it for the dorkiest of all the comments I could have possibly made… but I’ll get over it. Too bad the other guys couldn’t contribute. Looks like we’ve got our work cut out for us in this next election, huh? By the way, did you hear about the Supreme Court over the, “under god” part of the pledge in school? Turns out, not everyone wants to say it, go figure, huh?
Ryan, I talked to Crash from 102 the X, about you the other day, and what a cool guy you are. Thanx again for waiting up after the Richmond show to sign my cd.

Hey guys, so whats going on? well i hear that you guys are comming to florida. thats total uber! [I learend that word from one of dereks journals its super in german right?]well i gots a questoin do you think i could see you guys for real? its my birthday the day you guys are comming to florida and that would be the best birthday present ever.well got to go.see you on the flip side.

That sucks your ac broke that happened to my mom's car when we where driving up to Augusta.
But I have a jk my friend sent to me that could help cheer ya up.
An old man, a boy, and a donkey where going to town. They boy rode on the donkey and the man walked. As they passed some ppl they remarked it was a shame the old man walked and the boy was riding. They though the critics were right so they switched.
Later they passed some more ppl who shamed them for making the boy walk. They thought they where right so they both walked.
Soon they passed some more ppl who thought they where stupid to walk when they had a decent donkey to ride. So they both rode on the donkey.
They then passed some more ppl who shamed them for putting such a load on a poor donkey. They thought they were right so they carried the donkey.
As they passed a bridge they lost their grip on the donkey and the animal fell into the river and drowned.
The moral of the story:
If you try to please everyone, you might as well kiss your ass good-bye.

I thought it was funny.

Jesus, I'm gone for a couple days and 100 people post before me. Well, I am still the #1 fan in Santa Clarita, Sorry Mrs. Gledhill :) Smile Empty Soul is the best in the west!

Holy shit, you guys kick some major ass! Your music, I don't know, I can't explain it, but it means a lot to me in a way. I'm not gonna be like all those other chicks and be all like, holy shit, you guys are so hot and all that other shit. I apprectiate y'all and your music. Another thing, I can relate to your music so much. Like, I don't cry or whatever, but when my ex-boyfriend broke up with me, all I played over and over again to get over the heartache was "With This Knife". I totally understood what it meant and I did get over it, a little bit. It helped a lot. I gotta say, Sean, you got an awesome voice, Ryan, your awesome on bass, and Derek, keep rocking on those drums, your awesome. And, I just love the way you guys wrote all these songs on your own. Cause if somebody else wrote it, it wouldn't really mean anything. Right? :-/ I don't know. But, it would be really cool if y'all talked to me on AIM or whatever on,,JenNjeNn1283..But, I gotta go. I'll cya y'all later. Lata kids....

-Jenn Jenn (nickname)

Cheryl I was told ahead of time.Before i meet Smile Empty Soul that Sean was an Asshole.But when i meet him he was really cool.So some people are just jerks and call everyone names.Just see for yourself how he is.From what i saw he isn't a bad guy.Please people give the guy a break.He and the guys must be under a lot of stress at times.Remember even thoiugh they are in a rock band.They are still human like everyone else.2 More days tell i see them again.Monday night i bet i won't get any sleep LOL.I can't sleep when i get excited.

hey guys what's up? i was just wondering if the band has looked at the fan pics. i've got two posted thus far. my username is DieForYou. that'd be awesome if you all did that. i can't wait to see you come out to San Francisco again. will you guys be hanging out by your merch like you used to? thanks guys!

HI to everyone what's going on? Well my dad is still an asshole. I have a 10 year old sister whom I try to protect so my parents won't screw her up like they did with me; so I argued with him today; for the 10,000 billionth time; I was trying to defend her. My parents are real hypocrites; sometimes I wonder if they really are my parents; because they are totally different than me. I can't stand them. But hey I got SES to help me through this thing we call life. Thanks guys; you save my life time and time again! Well take care guys; and Raynee I'll talk to you on Yahoo! LOL Later ~*NAT*~

Saw "Silhouetts" 2day on Fuse!!! Rock on!!! I'm offically in love with that video; it just kicked out "I Miss You" by Blink 182 out of my #1 spot for favorite music videos this year. I just wanted to say thanks for the song. You're guys' music can change lives and thanks for helping me change mine. Let's just say I know I ended up being the very thing I hated and I lived in fear and I'm constantly alone. I know it & I know I need to change & with "Silhouetts" maybe I can finally get my friends to see that this girl has not been okay...Thanks...

**********DEREK, SEAN & RYAN***************

OHHH MY GOODNESS!!!! I have totally missed you guys! I just got back from Key West and I missed reading what you guys were up to. I think it will take me like a year to read through all the entries! So DEREK you guys are going to be at Midtown in ATL? I went last year to that (drove up from Orlando) it was such a blast. You guys will have a ton of fun there. I also want to tell you that FLORIDA CAN'T WAIT TO HAVE YOU BACK HERE EITHER!!!! I know I can't! Four more weeks and you guys will be playing the Earthday Birthday concert here in Orlando and I can't freakin' wait! Will you guys be able to hang out at all there (with fans like at the merch table?) I am still DYING to show you guys my SMILE tattoo. My parents saw it when we went to Key West and they acutally liked it! I was shocked. I am 25 though so I guess I don't have to worry about their approval on things like that anymore.
LOVE THE PUNISHER SOUNDTRACK...ESP. FINDING MYSELF (of course:) I found the one cd store in Key West and bought it on the day it came out. I must say listening to that for the first time staring at the beautiful blue/green ocean was awesome. Not to mention listening to your cd there as well. I loved you before, but now I love you even more!!!! (i don't know how that was possible). Well, better go....just realized how long this is getting.
Have fun guys on tour and see you soon!
MUCH LOVE, Jenni C

I was at the agora, must agree with you people that were there, pretty amazing. I got kicked in the head one too many times tho. haha. I think some people got a lil concert happy and wanted to crowd surf the whole time. O well. I must say that Smile is a great band,and they put on a hell of a show. Sean has a great voice and theres a cute happy lil drummer too! ;) ttyl

*Rhiannon

p.s. Hey Clay. You dis like the band so much, yet u took the time to search down their site and write a long comment. Looks to me like someone needs to get a life! ;)

O and Clay, one more thing...drummer boy is a stud.

*Rhiannon

yup. the show i went to was at the agoa also. it kicked but.. i know how many times have i said it? but yeah there wow! the people were crazy every two seconds the security gaurds were getting someone down from crowd surfing..! haha it was funny when the bassist from strata bent over to put his gutiar away his butt was sticking out... a lot! lol yeeeeah! the sad thing is that my mom dosent trust me at concerts she called my friggin cell phone 14 times during it and like im really gonna hear it ring. ugh. how do you freaking cope with overprotective parents?!? haha well thats it i think i posted like 5 messages! lol

~Much Love~
**rock on**

//Ashley//

hey derek.. u got a sn.. cuz i talk to strata's band a lil bit (erik).. oh by the way the concert in philly was amazing and u are gorgeous lol! comment back please
<3 always
**Tami**

WHERE IS THE LOVE? wow, it amazes me how people like Clay have so much time on their hands. dude, this page is for Smile Empty Soul FANS not people like you. Save yourself the time and dont post here. You really need to seriously get a life. Come on, you can do better than going to bands sites and posting shit like that. But you know, talking is easy you dont have the guts to say it in anybodys face. man i swear if any of us fans saw you, we would rip you a new asshole. so do us a favor and stop posting shit like that coz we dont wanna read things like that and i am sure neither does the band.

Hey Clay, are you the fake Amy?

I am working my way into going to the M. Beach concert. I really want to go bad. But not a lot of good bands come around me so I really need to go. I want to SO BAD! I would do almost anything.

Clay!
Your cool bud you really are...go to a band's site you hate sooo much and leave long-ass message. YAY, I want to be just like Clay...I love you, your such a STUD. Good lord, go milk it, you have some serious pent-up sexual anger....you probably dream about fucking your mom, because thats the only perosn in this world that could possibly love you PAL! have a good life, jackass
>>Deer Isle/ Stonington Maine<<SES Kicks the Ass so much...and watch out Clay your mommy isn't going to be around all the time, they are going to kick your ass.

Nicely said Michele, i totally agree with you.........

Yeah, how 'bout don't post anything to Clay, alright? You're only cheering him on; he WANTS to hear you bitch and whine at him and criticize his life. So just don't, okay?

Woo hoo! I'd post more but right now I'm gonna go watch House of a 1000 Corpses... It looks like a cool movie. So yes, I shall love on SES later. :P

Thanks

Hey. I posted on this one earliers. BUT..i seen that Clay dudes post and i could not resist!! I am going to take this from one of my fave characters...Cartmen from south park..So in the words of him i leave you with this Clay.."Suck my balls". One question while im at it...Derek,Sean,Ryan..DO yall like south park? Thats the shit..well besides yall..Yall are the shit then comes southpark. ROCK ON!

thanks Michele! just wondering, i wasnt the one who downloaded it though, im against sort of. i think that if you like a band as much as you say you do you could spend money to buy the cd to support them. plus it messes up your computer! lol. thanks again!
