Nothing Brings People Together More, Than Mutual

Most Of The Time When I Have Met Artists Who Have Meant A Lot To Me, The Experience Has Been Well Above Expectation. People Like Iggy, Lou Reed, Jerry Lee Lewis, Black Sabbath, Nick Cave, Hubert Selby Jr, Billy Gibbons, Al Pacino, John Lee Hooker, James Brown, Johnny Cash Etc. Have Been Really Great To Me. What Strikes Me Is Most Of The Time, The Bigger The Celeb/legend, The More Polite And Cool They Are. It's The Insecure Ones Who Treat You Like They're Doing You A Favor By Shaking Your Hand.

Do You Know Why Albert Camus Was So Prolific? He Wrote To Keep From Screaming.

My Mother, A Very Eclectic Listener, Had The First Doors Album And Gave It To Me When I Expressed Interest In The Band. It Was One Of The First Records I Ever Had.

Americans Have Been Dumbed Down To The Point Where More People Watching 'american Idol' Than Listen To The State Of The Union Address. And That's Too Bad. I'm Not Trying To Take Any Bread Out Of The Mouth Of Simon Cowell, But If The President Is Speaking To The People Of The United States, And People Are Going To Watch 'american Idol,' That's Sad.

I'm A Big Fan Of The American Tapes Label. But That's Very Hard To Keep A Grip On That Because You Blink Your Eyes And They've Released Three Records, All Of Which Are Limited Edition, All Sold At One Show. So You Have To Follow In Drips And Drops On Ebay, Which I Do.
