I'm afraid that reason will triumph and that the world will become a place where anyone who doesn't fit that will become unnecessary

I'm drawn to the stuff that's maybe a little bit on the fringe. Part of that is just practical sometimes. We can't compete with the major labels for some acts, so you figure, "Okay, what could I introduce to people, or what do I like that is within my means?"

The wage for most musicians is a modest amount, and that includes me some of the time.

The voting booth joint is a great leveler; the whole neighborhood - rich, poor, old, young, decrepit and spunky - they all turn out in one day.

I'm very much into making lists and breaking things apart into categories.

Yeah, I like to keep myself interested - I'll kind of throw myself into some area that I don't completely know or understand, that I'm not adept at, so I'm forced to swim in order to stay afloat. There's a good feeling that comes from that.

I knew I wanted to have a doll of myself on the cover. I thought, I wanna see myself as a Ken doll.
