It’s a stupid tradition anyway, we leave the stage, you know we’re coming back. It’s just a really dumb bar tradition, let’s be punk about it, come on. Oh wait, you want me to get arrested? I would love to get arrested, except when I get arrested, I’m a mother, so The National Enquirer, you get it – shut up!
