John Dennis also gave himself over to a higher power in a Cracker Barrel parking lot.

Todd Choi just took to the official Fictional Friction account to dispel rumors he has retired from the band. It amazes me on a daily basis how much fake made up clickbait is out there every hour. And how many people believe it without considering the source and circulate it.

Love
Love will keep us together

Look in my heart
