We're the worst band in America... That makes us the best.

There's been someone up here screaming 'Landslide' for the whole show... Normally we don't play 'Landslide,' but on occasion we've been known to play it... So since this person's been screaming it all show long... That just about kills the chances of me playing it tonight, or ever again.

To me, music was about being accepted and escaping from this crummy existence.

I want people to see me happy.

It's important for people to talk and get beyond the wall of Facebook and social media.

Now the expectation is that, once the public decides that the artist is gentrified, the public demands that the artist stop growing. And [the public] actually puts all their energy into reasserting or re-establishing what the artist has long ago left behind. Because that's what they want. The source of creativity, the gift that's been given, be damned.

My earliest memory is of feeling different. My parents told me that I wasn't like other children.
