Just Out Of Curiosity, I Wonder What

My Whole Generation's Mission Is To Kill The Cliche...it's One Of The Reasons A Lot Of My Generation Are Always On The Fence About Things. They're Afraid To Commit To Anything For Fear Of Seeming Like A Cliche. They're Afraid To Commit To Their Lives Because They See So Much Of The World As A Cliche.

Especially In Music, You Wonder, Okay, Should I Still Be Doing This? Like, Are You Overstaying Your Welcome At The Party? But I Don't Know.

[early On,] The Attitude Was That What I Was Doing Wasn't Music.

I'm Always Looking For Older Equipment And Ways Of Recording, But You Can't Escape The Fact That It's All Going To Be Digitized And Reduced. I Do Think Music Sounds Better When It's On Tape And More Simply Recorded. I've Been Arguing With People For 10 Years About Tape Versus Digital, And I Believe Tape Is Absolutely Essential In Getting The Sound That's Conducive To The Enjoyment Of Music. I Wonder If It's Going To Go Back To That. Sometimes I Think It Has To. As Music Becomes More Computer-based, It's Lost Some Emotional Impact.

The Only Way I Was Allowed To Play Was By Convincing Bands To Let Me Do A Few Songs While They Set Up. That Went On For Years.
