On Thursday, Emily McQuarrie interviewed John Smith of Young Rival after the end of Born Ruffians set at Mavericks. His friend, Todd Browne was also present for the interview. They’re pretty laid back guys. Keep in mind it was two in the morning.

Some of the questions Emily asked him were:
How is the tour going?
What’s it like hanging out with Born Ruffians?
How they feel about the album?
How they write the music?
Favorite venue?
Who did the album cover?
Favorite band to tour and play with?
