Kels_12 asks: What different instruments can you guys play?
Taylor: In the show we all swap, I'll go to the keyboard or to the drums...we all play piano and the instruments you see. We're all best at guitar, drums and keyboard, the ones we play most.

MiDdLe0fNoWhErE asks: Taylor, why do you use 2 keyboards?
Taylor: One is a keyboard like piano sound that I like the best, the other is an organ - I try to find modules that I can work on one keyboard, but they're two different things. One of the things I use in the studio is a B-3 organ, that's what I'm trying to replicate on the top keyboard.

SnowYs asks: Can you tell us what an average Hanson day is like?!
Taylor: There's no average Hanson day, because you're in some other different city with some other different schedule.. or else you're just sitting around.. that's what makes it interesting...Who would've known we'd be chatting with you guys right now.

Aileen_666 asks: Will Zac and Ike have more leads in ur upcoming album?
Ike: In the live show, it's pretty evenly swapped..
Taylor: I think what we've always said is Hanson is three guys who write, play and sing. On 3 car garage there are more songs that Ike is singing on. There really is no lead singer...it just depends. I think there are more songs from all three guys in the show.
Ike: I think we play an equal part very much in the live show.

Em815 asks: Zac....how may drum sets do you have??? Every appearance that you are on, you seem to have a new one!
Zac: I only own two drum sets, I have a wine one and a green one. They're both Pearl. And the other ones, we rent a lot of different drum sets when we're in different cities, because you cant always take your stuff with you, but we have all our own stuff on tour with us.

Pooglit_piglit asks: Is it hard making a music video?
Ike: Its more fun than hard.
Taylor: With every video it's different. "Weird" was probably the most extensive video. We shot 2 days in LA, and 2 days in NY. We shot in water, and in the subway, we had to shut down the subway for a night. It was the most expensive one and it was fun to get to have all those options.

Ike: We very much enjoy doing music videos and we've had a great time coming up with the concepts of music videos. They're a lot of fun for us.

Iluvhanson4ever asks: where did you come up with the names '3 Car Garage' and 'Middle of nowhere'?
Taylor: If you are a true fan, then you know Middle of Nowhere is from the song "Man from Milwaukee" which is the bonus track on the album and 3 Car Garage, because we recorded it in a garage & the three of us, it just became 3 Car Garage.

Babymama22 asks: Ike,what's your favorite guitar cord?
Ike: A chord is merely a chord, and you need them to make a song, and there are some very pretty chords but nothing in particular.

ZacFreak_22 asks: Zac i play the drums too are there any tips you can give me to help me get as good as possible?
Zac: practice alot! Practice alot!

AniBrat asks: What is the best thing about music business?
Taylor: It's like any business there are very bad things about it and very good things about it...We love the making music part.

ZacLuva123 asks: What advice do you give young people who would like to become singers like yourselves?
Ike: Work really really hard, you've got to love it that's the only way to go...if you're in it for any other reason than you want to continue making music and you love making music, then you're in it for the wrong reasons...
Taylor: It will all collapse behind you.
Ike: We're in it to make music. So just get out there and try to play as many places as you can...that's one of the best ways to get fans and get your music heard. Play where ever your can.

Yahoomc: Where do you guys see yourselves in 10 years???
Taylor: We hope that we can continue to do music for a very long time, be the band for the rest of our lives, as long as you guys continue to buy the record and enjoy the music. It's up to you guys. If it were up to us we'd do it for a very long long time.

Ezzie01 asks: How do you guys handle the pressure of rock Stardom?
Taylor: Sometimes rock stardom is blown out of proportion, there are so many bands out there and we're just one of them.. The best thing about being a band is doing shows and doing records, meeting people is really cool too.
Ike: It's quite wild people recognizing you walking down your street and when people show up at your house, that's quite scary, but we just enjoy getting to play our music and be out there and be the band.

Sophie1998_98 asks: What's the funniest thing a fan has ever done, said, or worn, at one of your concerts?
Taylor: We get some incredible things, everything from scrolls that are miles long, that just say "iloveyouiloveyou" on it, which aren't fun to read, because it's the same thing... to banners that are 8x10 feet that say Hanson on it, and pinatas.
Ike: And letters from people saying very cool things, touched by the music....
Taylor: And it's really cool that everybody came to the chat today.
Ike: One of the ways we try to keep in touch with the fans is thru a fan club called Moe and you can find out about that at Hansonline.com and you can find out what the bands doing, lots of good coverage about the tour, streaming video about the website. And thru Moe, you'll get exclusive articles and merchandise, like Dr. Food, which is something that you can't get anywhere else. Thank you guys so much for coming.
