Sometimes I Think Nothing Is Simple But

In Fact I Think Now We've Reached A Point Now, Where The Powers That Be Really Have Sort Of Vested Interest In All Of Us Being Stoned Out As Much As Possible All The Time So We Don't Know What's Going On, And We Don't Care.

Look At It This Way: There Are Many Here Among Us For Whom The Life Force Is Best Represented By The Livid Twitching Of One Tortured Nerve, Or Even A Full-scale Anxiety Attack. I Do Not Subscribe To This Point Of View 100 Percent, But I Understand It, Have Lived It. Thus The Shriek, The Caterwaul, The Chainsaw Gnarlgnashing, The Yowl And The Whizz That Decapitates May Be Reheard By The Adventurous Or Emotionally Damaged As Mellifluous Bursts Of Unarguable Affirmation.

I'm Really Schizophrenic About That, Because On The One Hand I Would Say, Yes There Is, There's Something Inherently, Even Violent About It, It's Wild And Raw And All This.

Good Rock 'n' Roll Is Something That Makes You Feel Alive. It's Something That's Human, And I Think That Most Music Today Isn't. ... To Me Good Rock 'n' Roll Also Encompasses Other Things, Like Hank Williams And Charlie Mingus And A Lot Of Things That Aren't Strictly Defined As Rock 'n' Roll. Rock 'n' Roll Is An Attitude, It's Not A Musical Form Of A Strict Sort. It's A Way Of Doing Things, Of Approaching Things. Writing Can Be Rock 'n' Roll, Or A Movie Can Be Rock 'n' Roll. It's A Way Of Living Your Life.
