He tells RollingStone.com, "We had filmed every bit of the process. Us in the garage, writing songs, learning E chords and G chords, really good stuff."

"But we had a rental car, and we left the camcorder in the car, and it was stolen. They stole the most priceless footage. People are going to want to know more about those early days, but we don't have it."
