In the last few weeks, I've been asked some variation of three different questions pretty constantly. One, what's the scoop on The Boondock Saints; two, when will the band be touring again; and three, what's up with you and Ramona Taylor?

To answer the first question, filming wrapped in June and now the movie is in post-production. I don't know at this point when it'll be released, but I'm really looking forward to seeing the finished product. The flick was a blast to film and I think it's something that people will really enjoy. And yes, I'd definitely consider acting in another movie, but again it would have to be the right project. Although I guess I should wait and see what the critics think before planning my glorious career in film, just in case the verdict is that I suck.

On to the second question. We're still finalizing a few dates, but we're definitely scheduled to begin touring at the end of the month. We'll be kicking the tour off with a few shows in and around Boston, so if any of you are close by, we'd love to see you at one of the shows. Keep your eye on sonsofuisneach-fans.com for preliminary tour dates, they should be posted within the next few days.

As for the third question, everyone's probably expecting me to dodge it. I'll be the first to admit that I don't think my personal life should be anyone's business. The only time I've made an exception was the first time I fell in love, because not only was it pretty obvious at the time that was head over heels about the girl in question, I was also damned happy about it too. I guess that's why I'm making another exception. Yes, Ramona and I had planned to be married at the end of June; no, the wedding didn't happen; and no, that doesn't mean that it's off entirely. It was just decided that the timing wasn't right and we both want everything to be perfect when we finally tie the knot, so it's only delayed a bit.

I know some people seem to think Mona and I are an odd couple, and yes we do come from very different backgrounds, but we share some very important values. I don't think it's any secret that I'm very devoted to my family, and Ramona knows the value of strong family ties as well. And I'll be the first to admit that I'm a bit more liberal when it comes to religion than some, but other than family, faith is the other major cornerstone of my life, and that's something else that Mona and I share. She's exactly the kind of woman I can trust will be a good mother to our children and help me raise them to value faith and family as much as we both do. So we're really not that "odd" after all.
