I didn't even have a computer until like 10 years ago. I was still using a typewriter until 2002.

I've been practicing for years, trying to figure out how to record an entire band live.

I just go in the studio and write on the spot and see what comes out.

There are plenty of Minutemen. People willing to be Minutemen. Where are the people that want to be George Washington? Where are the Benjamin Franklins? Where is Sam Adams? Where is John Adams?

I enjoy recording live better, but I think by the nature of it you are going to end up with something that's a little bit more traditional.

There are a lot of technical studio things I've learned or figured out, and I feel like I could use those things to help other people with what they're doing.

I've been arguing with people for 10 years about tape versus digital, and I believe tape is absolutely essential in getting the sound that's conducive to the enjoyment of music.
