It's Hard To Beat The Visceral High Of Playing Live And Creating Something Spontaneous.

I've Never Understood People Who Play Up The Artifice Of Music.

I Don't Think I Would Live Outside Of The Northwest. I Think The Quality Of Life In Portland Is Really Good. People Move From Intense, High-powered Jobs, And Move To Portland, Work Half As Much And Live Twice As Good.

I've Always Loved Writing. Doing That At The Same Time As Playing Music Can Be Tiring.
