Skillet: Tatts, Shreds and Beards.

I think he looks much better without the beard.
Anybody with me on that?

he was lookin like mac powell for a while there...

i've been gone for a week and feel really out of it. leave for Michigan today.

sorry just got to grandparents house in michigan. spent 24 hours in a car. fun... (not really!!!)

He should have kept the Triple H stache.

No not the H!! LOL.

he looks soooooooo much better without the beard!

I like no beard!

I almost didn't recognize him with the beard!!! I almost said who is that?? He looks better without the beard probably because I'm used to seeing him like that but if he stuck with that look I guess it would be ok. Its his choice XD and btw his son is soooo cute (the kid in the beginning)

i know! im still kind of deciding wether i prefer a beard or no beard. i dont know

I agree but i think he should ask what his wife thinks my mom wasnt a big fan of skillet before but now they have tatoos she doesnt llike them all the more. it think she needs to not judge dont worry i still like skillet and so doesnt my dad i heard a rumor about a new albulm is that true?

i dont like tattoos and neither do my mom and dad but they still like skillet. there is nothing wrong with having tattoos. except that 2 me they r ugly. but that is my opinion.

Without the beard, for sure! The black hair takes over his face way too much

there is a tattoo parlor in the city i go to school in. the people who run it has a really cool testimony. they owned the tattoo place before they were Christians, a friend told them about Christ they became strong christian instead of selling the parlor they kept it open and every time someone walks in the door they minister to them. they are able to reach a variety of people. some who would never talk to a christian.

Same here, Karissa! I hadn't seen Seth yet when I first saw John with a beard and if it wasn't for the bass I would have continued to think that that was Seth! But now we have our old doggie back and everything is back to normal, if there is such a thing as normal for Skillet
And I have to say that those are some pretty awesome tatts, girls!

WITHOUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My best friends lil sis was sooooooooooooo mad when he grew it....we all were lol

I love Jen & Korey's tatts. I think John is best without the beard although I was just starting to get used to it, but I didn't hate it like a lot of people. But he's better without it. Skillet rock.

Yeah better without, he shaves it everytime he does
music videos though doesn't he?

Do they have a new albulm coming out? I think tats are evil looking but i hope love there music but ready for some new

i dont know wat 2 make of all this i dont know if i like the beard or not. im confused. all i know is that skillet is awesome!!!!!!!

THANK GOD HE DOESN'T HAVE THE BEARD!!! Without obviously I like the old John Cooper. You know, the one without the beard?

i still am not sure yet.

Once again, I'm impressed how fast you commented back

feeling is mutual.

Totally like him better WITHOUT the Beard.  Didn't like it at all!

it looks ok 2 me but i could not picture him singing on stage with that beard on his face!

Yeah I totally agree. To be honest I hated it I am so glad it's gone. And Julia, "feeling is mutual", really? lol. But whatever.

hehe! wat? u dont like it wen i say big words? none of my cousins like it either though.

No I love big words. It's just funny when you say them. Idk why, but it is

is it hard 2 pictures me saying big words?

Your personality doesn't fit big words to me I guess. idk.

haha. tis quite funny. tis quite funny indeed.

he looks so nice!!!! no beard, definetely!

u guys may call me crazy but i think he looks kind of cute.

I agree he is kinda cute. WITHOUT THE BEARD.

yeah. but i think he looks ok with it 2.

I'll be honest. I was SO STINKING RELIEVED when I watched him shave it off! He looks so much better without it.
Oh and I need some people to convince me to make a video or a "cover" of an Anthem Lights song called "Can't Get Over You"! I taught myself how to play it on piano (I'm still getting it worked on on guitar ) and I think that I, along with my sister and maybe even my brother, should make one and send it to them. What do ya think? I need feedback and I need to be convinced!

u should. i used 2 know how 2 play piano. i want 2 learn again. u should though. i think they would find it cool!

Yeah and they would post it on they're websiiiiiite!!!!! I would totally love them even more for that. I would kiss all of them except for Alan cause his wife may not be pleased lol

Sorry that sounded a bit weird but you never know with me! I probably would do it!

i would consider u 1 of the luckiest girls on earth.

Thank you very much. I would think that as well (I still feel anxious btw)

i feel a strange uneasyness right now and i dont know y. its strange ad anying and i bit i dont know weird. not my normal weird but a bad weird.

ummmm that is interesting. I guess I can say I feel the same way. An uneasyness is pretty much exactly what I feel. Along with anxiety.... hm weird

i wonder. cause tis weird in 2 of christian books i have called this present darkness and peircing the darkness wen the christians where feeling uneasy it meant there was some spiritual battle going on between an angel and a deamon. weird. :.

Ummmmm yeeeah. That is very weird and creepy. An weird creepy. :/.

hmmmm.

hummmmm I'm stuck. Idk what to say. HELP.

as u race the wind and take 2 the sky!

I loooove that song sooo much.

tis quite good!

Totally. PIZZA. Sorry I prefer Little Ceasar's #funfactaboutme

i LOVE little ceaser's! caleb ate a peice of a fan's little ceaser's pizza.

I KNOW! I LOVED that video. They are excellent live. Very talented. VERY talented. Love them!!!

how can't u love them?

I know! They are "too good to be true" and I love them to death.

i know!

I might sound a bit weird, and forgive me if I do, but when I'm in my room, by myself of course, I kinda act out or imagine me being with, or singing, with them and it feels so stinking realistic. That's probably one of the reasons I feel anxious. Cause It's so awesome to "be in they're presence" I feel like I'm close friends with them and it's also depressing cause I know that I'm really not in reality... Oh well. A day will come. Hopefully... :/.

wen im singing their songs i imagine me singing a duet with them!

I do that to sometimes. It's a dream still yet to be fulfilled... I CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER!!!!

remember 2 mention me wen ur dreams r fulfilled. please!

Hahaha! Will do. Believe me. I will be flipping out and will be on this thing before you know it telling every1 about my experience!!! But as far as right now goes, my dreams are not yet fulfilled, and I'm still waiting and longing...

Still hasn't happened. Still waiting.

wen it does mention me please!

Believe me, I won't forget. (at least I think I won't. I can be forgetful sometimes.)

ill forget the world that i knew but i swear i wont forget u.

don't forget me!! i hope i can do it also... someday... eventually...before i die

u guys have awesome dreams! mine isnt all that specific. all i know is i want 2 do great things 4 God. i want 2 impact poeples' lives, whether its with big things or small things.

Yeah. That's always a good thing. Question, did I just post something on this page? Cause I don't see it. grrrr

idk im confused. i have 2 go and get ready 4 church. bye.

Ok. Church has gotta b over now

yes tis over. and so is lunch!

I HATE it. He looks better without it. YOU ARE A DISGRACE JONATHAN! (JK!) hehe

no they dont have a new album yet but hopefully they will have a new 1 soon.

Skillet? Yes. At least it's sorta new. It's "Awakened and Remixed". It's a bunch if they're older songs done differently. I don't like it at all.

My bad, "AWAKE* and Remixed">

no i cant call your parents crazy unless i call my parents the same thing. in that one area i have it better but prolly not in most others. but that might be changing soon hopefully...but anyways it is a very clean website. in fact, there aren't even any advertisements! im NOT saying disobey...if you can, just ask.

the comments are not showing up in my computer

I have to go to Internet Explorer one minute, then Firefox another! JUST TO SEE COMMENTS! Very uncool... But I learned Can't Get Over You on guitar and I NAILED IT!!!! Oh "All In" is on!!!! I love this song so much And I'm all in. Nothing left to hide I'm falling harder than last time I spent a week away from you last night love it

none because we dont have like any money for anything except food but i would like to do something like that eventually...and my parents prolly wouldn't let me anyway. idk what it really is actually haha

It's a BIG national concert with like, Newsboys, Fireflight, and Dara Maclean and stuff but they will change some of the artists most of the time. It's really cool.

so why were you wondering if i was going or not? jw

I was just curious. I got to thinking about what if we all (Julia, Jonathan, Kriss and J.M) met at Winter Jam, today and meant to ask you Hope you didn't mind.....

where and wen is winter jam? and wat bands r going?
also wouldnt it b a bit hard 4 all of us 2 go wen we all live in different states? but that would b cool!

I know but it was just a thought and go to www.jamtour.com to see next years artists

ok thanx.

no it's fine! I was just wondering why you were wondering haha. btw sry i was so late but im back now

<random comment for no reason>

Lauren you should really send in a cover video of can't get over you!!!! that would be so cool and think of it as if they are meeting you cause they would get to see you and in a way you would get to see them

i agree with kriss. u should!

about the shirt contest though, will they let us know who is the winner by email? or on their website?
