I'm first and foremost a guitar player. I've been playing since I was 12, which is over half of my life.

The schematics are a little bit tricky, but once you get it down you're able to really program an entire show. Every song has a lot of different guitar sounds in it, so that's what it is.

Music is kind of a strange business, and it's too weird of a job to have mean, conniving people around.

I don't even wanna say female guitar-players, just guitar-players, because music of all things doesn't need to be gendered and stratified, that's so boring.

An mp3 is a compressed form of data. It's not the full spectrum. It's never going to sound as good as a record.

Checking voicemail is like, "When's the other shoe going to drop?" I'm always afraid it's going to be terrible news I don't want to hear.

All these things that we are very nostalgic for come from a place of technology dictating [art]. This time and place is no different.
