Meditation, especially for people who dont know very much about it and think its this very hippy dippy thing, can really be powerful, terrifying even, as it lifts the rug up on your subconscious and the dust comes flying out.

I think I've always felt as a band and as a musician and a music business person, I've always felt like an outsider, period.

Thank God my best friend's a therapist.

Twitter fascinates me because it's real. It feels kind of unreal, but it makes very real things happen.

I think to say that meditation is helpful to artists is true and it's great, but it's also essentially helpful to any kind of process of, just, life.

Take on the pain and wear it as a shirt.

One of the best things about Kickstarter and crowdfunding and the collapse of the music business is a lot of artists like me have been forced to face our own weird mess about ourselves and what we thought it meant to become musicians.
