I lie around and play guitar, that's something I do for sure. In fact that's all I do, I think.

For me, it's all about The Dubliners by James Joyce. I love The Dead.

When there are no women on the tour it can get awful and ugly - constant horrible jokes and gross behaviour. It needs to be leavened with a feminine presence.

CDs, too. Totally corporate. They look real cheap and soulless and they don't smell of anything.

I get to see the world and try to make people happy. I'm very much of a wandering spirit, if you'll pardon the expression.

I'd forgotten what it was like to play music and have it be fun so I decided to stop. I wasn't even sure if I was going to make a new record, I was just kinda quitting.

I've got time, I hope, to make lots of quiet records. So quiet you won't be able to hear them.
