John O'Callaghan Talks First Kiss: 'I Was in Fourth Grade'

John O' Callaghan of The Maine phoned into DJ Rossstar's Punk Rock Show on Thursday night to discuss the band's upcoming music video and tour ... and wound up revealing very personal details about his very first kiss! [cut=Deets.]

"We've got a video ["Everything I Asked For]," O'Callaghan proudly announced. "It's coming out ... I've been saying Sunday, but I guess it's probably going to be out 48 hours after Sunday which would make Tuesday ... so Tuesday probably. It's sometime in between Sunday and Tuesday of next week. Stay up all day, all night and wait for it."

The Maine is currently on tour with All Time Low and has shows planned up until the very end of the year. But come February 2009, the band will be back on the road, and although O'Callaghan confirmed that it will not be a headlining tour, he would not reveal who the band would be touring with. "Kids will definately, definately know the band," is all O'Callaghan offered us, joking that The Maine would be heading out with Green Day, Jimmy Eat World and Foo Fighters.

And finally ... what many of you have been waiting for ... John O'Callaghan's first kissing experience ...

"I was in fourth grade. She was a fifth grader. That's what I'm talking about. She had blonde hair, green eyes, gorgeous. She broke my heart and left."

The Maine recently stopped by Buzznet to perform four songs acoustically for our Resonate series ... and do a hysterical interview!
