Josh Ramsay, lead singer of the pop-punk band Marianas Trench relapses again for the second time in two years. Sequel to "Try a Little More, Lie a Little More". The title of this piece, "Call and Response" is significant to the story. Not only does Josh 'call' people to be there for him in this book, but it's also musical terminology. It means, " a succession of two distinct phrases usually played by different musicians, where the second phrase is heard as a direct commentary on or response to the first." True to life, both Josh Ramsay and Matt Webb utilize this musical term in Marianas Trench songs. Josh will also do this at the shows when he sings vocal riffs back and forth with the audience.
