1.  When did you first become a fan of Dashboard Confessional? I’ve been a fan of I became a fan back in 2001 - I can barley remember a time when Dashboard hasn't been a part of my life. I call them the soundtrack of my life as they have always been there for every moment/era. People come to me when they need to ask a question regarding a Dashboard song :p 

2.  How has Dashboard Confessional affected your life? Oh my gosh, they have gotten me through the toughest of times and celebrated with me during the happiest of times. I have used quotes from their song lyrics on posts, journals or even reminders to myself and clung to them when I needed support. There are so many songs over the years that have resonated with my life and they bring me a sense of comfort and familiarity. Plus Chris being as nice as he is in person really created a connection with them that is irreplaceable.

3.  If you have attended a Dashboard Confessional concert - what was it like for you? I have attended quite a few concerts over the years and each one was unique! I crossed the boarder to see them the first time back in 2002 and had my very first sing a long concert ever! So amazing screaming all the words with hundreds of others. In more recent years it was a nostalgic experience to gather with other fans and vibe out, sing and dance along and help Chris sing especially when he hits his long notes. I just always feel giddy at a Dashboard Concert. The vibes, the energy, the excitement of all the fans, and Dashboard and their consistent performances. I have had the opportunity to meet Chris 3 times in my life - twice with Dashboard and once with Twin Forks and he has been so kind to me and we even had a chance to have a conversation. He remembered my face the last time we met as well which was amazing considering how many people he meets over the years! Honestly I follow him on his journeys everywhere he goes to play music. 

4.  Any suggestions for what we can do/set up for Saints & Sailors Fan Club? Hmm maybe a monthly trivia game for fans to stay engaged in or even just one question for those who answer it right to win something even if it's just a shoutout. Puzzles or challenges to win prizes, a social media page to stay engaged together?

5.  If you could give Dashboard Confessional a message - what would it be? THANK YOU! 
Thank you for staying consistent and for all the years of music, lyrics, fun shows and I hope they know just how much them and their music has reached, affected, and resonated with people over the years. Some of the songs have literally saved my life. 
In fact I have followed them for so long I manifested my own Chris. He speaks to me and treats me life Chris lyrics and even has the same hair as Chris!
You are a beacon of light in a sometimes dark world!
