well i wasnt sure, but i thought they were from wayne, nj. i was reading something about them, and it seemed most the band members were from NJ. although im sure it sounds cooler to be from NY     and yeah, dramarama is from NJ. except they're in cali these days. and apparently playing out there too.

goddamn you are good, a quote for those who don't want to wade through it:
 
 " (Oh, and would people please stop calling Fountains a New Jersey band? "That's the biggest misconception about us," Schlesinger laughs. "No one in the band actually lives in New Jersey.") "
