"Q: You were actually on 'American Idol' a couple of years ago.
BJA: We played [John Lennon's] 'Working Class Hero.' It was interesting because we had the "F" word and their show is live, so we had to pre-record our song so that they could bleep out the "F" words. We almost got thrown off the show before it even started because they didn't trust us. It's like, "Man, we've done [live TV] so many times. We can do this." And finally they're like, "OK, you guys have to record it before." So we played to a completely empty room."
