I get angry about stuff, I get very emotionally intense about stuff and that's how I get it out - with books, with the band, on my own onstage, but it's always kind of a wail.

Love heals scars love left

You must never lower yourself to being a person you don't like.

Yes, I guess you could say I am a loner, but I feel more lonely in a crowed room with boring people than I feel on my own.

I try to get myself up and moving as early as possible. Optimum is to be on the treadmill while it is still dark outside.

Spring and fall, those are very inspiring times of the year for me.

Sitting in a room, alone, listening to a CD is to be lonely. Sitting in a room alone with an LP crackling away, or sitting next to the turntable listening to a song at a time via 7-inch single is enjoying the sublime state of solitude.
