I read a bit of Ray Bradbury when I was a younger man. I don't read a lot of fiction anymore... like, none.

I'm not a very good writer. I'm working at it.

Let's pretend my career in music is a bell. Whether you like my music or not is up to you. But you've got to admit I rang that bell pretty hard and pretty often.

There is a lot to say about what Bikini Kill and other 'riot grrrl' bands were able to achieve when they first set out. They were not some momentary, convulsive, creative spasm of independent music. There was a very real, relevant point of view being expressed.

All I can do is just do stuff while I am alive and hopefully that track record will speak for itself.

There's a lot of mountain climbers trapped inside of bodies of people behind the counter at Kinko's.

I have been listening to the Stooges' self-titled first album for well over half my life, and it remains one of the most exciting and essential records I have ever had the good fortune to come into contact with.
