Fan Of The Month

FEBRUARY 2025

1.  When did you first become a fan of Dashboard Confessional?
I became a huge fan of Dashboard Confessional the first time I heard "Screaming Infidelities." That song completely hooked me and introduced me to a band that has been with me through so many stages of my life. Since then, I’ve bought every album and followed their music closely.

2.  How has Dashboard Confessional affected your life?
Dashboard Confessional has been a huge part of my life, especially during tough times. Their music has helped me process emotions and feel understood when I needed it most. Songs like"Screaming Infidelities"and"Stolen"have been the soundtrack to some of the most important moments in my life. I even sang"Stolen"to my husband at our wedding, and I used to sing"Screaming Infidelities"every week at karaoke. Their music has always been a source of comfort, strength, and connection for me.

3.  If you have attended a Dashboard Confessional concert - what was it like for you?
Every Dashboard Confessional concert I’ve attended has been unforgettable. My best friend and I would drivefour hours just to see them, and we always got there five hours early to make sure we were as close to the front as possible. There’s nothing like singing along with a crowd of people who feel the same emotional connection to the music. It felt personal, like Chris was telling all of our stories, and being part of that was incredible.

4.  Any suggestions for what we can do/set up for Saints & Sailors Fan Club?
It would be amazing if the Saints & Sailors Fan Club could have exclusive behind-the-scenes content or acoustic versions of songs that aren’t widely released. Maybe even fan-requested setlists for shows or opportunities for fans to share their own stories about how Dashboard Confessional has impacted their lives, even if they're not the fan of the month.

5.  If you could give Dashboard Confessional a message - what would it be? 
Thank you for making music that speaks to so many emotions and moments in life. Your songs have been with me through heartbreak, healing, and happiness. You’ve created music that feels so personal yet brings people together in the most meaningful ways. I can’t thank you enough for how much your music has helped me through the years, and I’ll continue to support you for as long as you’re making music.
