I don't blame him for the comments. That's their thing. They're the anti-mainstream band. I can see why someone would think that because you get so much hype and such a fast-paced start that there's only one place to go.

Only time will tell. I know that me, personally, I saw Canadian Idol as a stepping stone. It wasn't a guarantee for anything. I knew that I was going to have to work for my career if I wanted to have a lasting career.
