""Part of the reason it's possible for me to do this is because I spent enough time on the other side of a room from a therapist to find forgiveness for that whole time in my life," McMahon says. "This was my 20s, and your 20s are about making mistakes and fumbling in the dark to try and find who you are, what you're meant to do and who you're meant to be with. Sometimes hearing that laid bare is embarrassing.""
""On Oct. 11, he and the rest of a reunited Jack's Mannequin (guitarist Bobby "Raw" Anderson, drummer Jay McMillan, bassist Mikey Wagner) will embark on the second leg of their MFEO (Made For Each Other) tour in Los Angeles, revisiting songs from "Everything In Transit" and its two follow-up albums, 2008's " The Glass Passenger" and 2011's "People And Things.""
Andrew McMahon feels self-conscious when he listens back to Everything In Transit, recalling how the piano-rock/emo-adjacent concept album chronicled a painful breakup with the woman who later became his wife. He cringes at lyrics he once loved and calls himself a moron while reflecting over Zoom. Years of introspection and therapy produced forgiveness and allowed him to view the record with warmth rather than anxiety. He and a reunited Jack's Mannequin will celebrate the album's 20th anniversary, embarking on the MFEO (Made For Each Other) tour revisiting songs from Everything In Transit, The Glass Passenger and People And Things.
