Ive also just come off a year and a half playing acoustic shows which is fantastic for the hands, and changes your head a little bit.

'Triboluminescence' is actually a scientific world meaning striking something and creating light from dark. I thought it was a great word and that is was a very apt metaphor for making music - or any creative act, really. We all start in the dark and have to create light.

I am pretty embroiled in moving on and moving forward with music.

Usually, the best thing is when the band goes to the bar and gets the corner table, we sit there like kings, and then they bring people to us. It's just rock 'n' roll. It's stupid, really.

My favorite sounds are the high, spacey ones that are very ambient.

It is not very practical in today’s world when you tour all over the place having a big band.

What I wanted to do was play the guitar but I don't like instrumental rock. I think it is tripe.
