If people want new music then they are going to have to figure out a way to be patrons of the arts. And they will.
Ian MacKayeI've had people call me from bands that are very popular, and they're like, "What do we do? We want to do what you do." It's almost impossible to do what I do, because you would have to start in 1980. You can't just do it.
Ian MacKayeI appreciate the past, but I want to make new things. That's the problem with the sack on the back - if you carry it around with you, it's like you get hobbled.
Ian MacKayeWhat does bother me is that I have to spend time and energy dealing with the ramifications of what people do think about me.
