I'm basically in every band I ever was in, and the songs, I still mean them all. I don't take anything back, so I do look after them to some degree. But my main focus is on what I'm doing now.

I have thousands of tapes, and photos and fliers, letters, posters, artwork - basically everything that ever happened, I kept. I'm not a hoarder, though. I'm sort of a librarian.

I think about Dischord. There's been a pretty consistent notion that Dischord have been some sort of "overlords" of the scene. Some people have felt 'they are too cool for us,' or 'they won't put this out,' etc. All we're doing is our own work, our own thing. That's all we've ever done. Our work.

Now anyone can move anywhere. I've made deep connections with people around the world since I tour everywhere that I will simply never see again.

I don't watch TV but occasionally I'll read the Washington Post. I will say that sports are the only "real thing" on television.

We play loud electric guitar music, and we'd hope that that doesn't mean you have to act like an asshole.

An unlocked door means that, occasionally, you might get a devil come in, but a locked door means you have thousands of angels just walk by.
