SPB: What do your parents think of your music? (Related: Are they likely to read this?) 

Adrien: My mom has always been supportive. Like a lot of older folks, she wishes we'd write a "one hit wonder," haha.

She's more likely to read it if I show it to her.

Jason: They appreciate my musical ability, but they're not into punk rock. 

They're not likely to read this interview. 

Wade: My folks are supportive, and probably won't read an interview unless I show them where to find it. 

Brian: My answer would be generally supportive but disassociated. And no.
