Well, since this IS the rumor forum, I'm adding some facts that I found off of a myspace blog on one of the fansite's profiles.
Feel free to post any other facts that I didn't list.

Adam used to work at fast food joints.
Neil used to be a part time ninja (Midnight and I still giggle about that...)
-More in next post as to not stretch page-

Three Days Grace performed in the Hillary Duff movie Raise Your Voice that came out in 2004. (In my opinion, it was actually a great movie)

Three Days Grace is nominated for two Radio Music Awards Song of the Year/Alternative and Active Rock Radio for Home and Song of the Year/Rock Radio for Just Like You

Barry Stock joined the band in June of 2003 so that Adam had less stress on him at live shows.

Adam once owned a bar when he was 16

Quotes from Adam
Adam: People think that because of our lyrics, I'm a dark person. But I mostly write songs when I'm mad. So that's what people see.
Adam: It's the most incredible feeling when you've got a room full of a thousand people singing back your lyrics. When people relate to your feelings and your music in their own way, it's unreal.
Adam: My goal in life has always been to tour the world playing music. From the age of 12, that's what I wanted to do more than anything else. Now I'm doing it, and it's awesome. I'm very lucky!
Adam: Home is one of my favorite songs. It hits a spot with me. It's a fun song to play live as well. It's tough to pick a favorite. But because of the amount of energy we give it live I'd say it's Home.
Adam: Thanks for being fans of our band. It's nice to see people. Were from so far away when we come to a new place and meet new fans it's amazing. We want to thank the fans for liking the band and digging the music.
Adam: "This year's been great for us. We've basically been writing the new record since we got off the road. It's always great to get home after a year and a half of touring. You have a lot of time at home with friends and family, and people that you haven't seen for along time, then, once you get in all the visiting and stuff, it's back to work, everyday is spent writing, making demos, and recording songs for the new record..." "...We tried a couple different writing techniques on this record also, so really, we were taking our time..."

Wow...he's pretty talkative... xd

Quotes from Neil
Neil talks about the song Over rated: The lyrics in this song talk about our generation that is tired of conforming to an outdated set of values, rules, and morals, that have been set up by people of an older generation, who are completely out of touch with the way we choose to live our lives today.
Neil: "I hate bands that think they are too cool to meet and talk to their fans. If a band doesn't have time for the fans, then the fans wont have time for the band."
"Whenever I have to buy something at a 7/11 through bullet proof glass, I get really disappointed in this country."
Neil: We treat our live show as a separate entity than the record. We want each show to be different from the last and we want to be able to go off on musical tangents. Being spontaneous on stage always keeps it fresh for us We started in a town of 1500 people, playing on hay wagons at pit parties in the back fields. and touring in a cream-coloured K-Car. We used to jam in Brad's basement with homemade equipment, I remember using wooden spoons to play drums when we ran out of proper drumsticks.
Neil’s Favorite line: Washed up and hated, the system moves too slow. They give us answers to questions they don't even know.

Quotes from Brad and Barry
Barry: We all have in common the fact that we all seem to be venting while we're on stage. Walking up on stage in front of a mad mosh pit is the perfect environment to blow off some steam. When we are on the road I hate days off, If I had my way we would perform every day.
Barry: I can't stand people that judge others based on looks, money, or any other of that superficial crap. I once saw a quote that said, You laugh at me because I'm different, I laugh at you because you're all the same. It's brilliant.
Brad: I starting playing guitar when I first met Adam. He asked me two questions First...do you smoke?., and second... do you play guitar? After a yes to both, that was it, the start of the ride.
Brad on the song Drown: Drown to me really represents a time in my life. At one point I felt very depressed and alone growing up in Norwood. There was no opportunity for a young man to expand and grow. All the people around me just seemed to be stuck.
Brad: I starting playing guitar when I first met Adam. He asked me two questions..."First...do you smoke?., and second... do you play guitar?" After a yes to both, that was it, the start of the ride.
