[@lasthmatique]

Thanks for the video, and also the one about Chris !
For some reason, since I've heard about Nick and Chris years ago when I became a fan, I've always felt like I wanted to know more about them (I should probably listen to the whole interviews one day), and that most other TØP fans pretty much ignore them. I don't know, I still consider them as part of the band in a way, and I'd like them to get the recognition I think they deserve, because twenty one pilots would have been very different without them (it probably wouldn't exist, that is).
I always have this weird feeling of nostalgia and sadness when thinking about how the band was back then. But it's still cool to see not only how TØP evolved, but also that both Chris and Nick are still around, don't regret their choice of leaving the band and are just enjoying their lives. Though I hope that we'll get other interviews of them in the future if they want to, cause 2017 was a while ago !
