Sometimes to get in the "musical mood," I'll just turn on music really loud, or go drive around and listen to music, or learn a song that I really like on guitar or piano. That gets me in the right frame of mind to proceed.
John Britt DanielI recognize that there are some great things about not playing a song live, and just kind of piecing it together as you go.
John Britt DanielYou definitely get more of a band feel to a song if you've been playing a song live a bunch.
John Britt DanielI love not being in charge of writing all the songs, and being the front person - the whole thing is cool.
John Britt DanielI guess if we do enough shows and keep doing it long enough, then people will get the picture. But I can't really be bothered if they don't get the picture. That's not my concern.
John Britt DanielMy song titles have different reasons for the mistakes. "Don't You Evah," that's just the way that I've always said it, and I just thought it was funnier. "Yr." in "You Got Yr. Cherry Bomb", it's that punk-rock way of writing "your," like "Kill Yr. Idols." And "Rhthm And Soul" was just an actual typo that someone pointed out, and I just said, "Well, I guess that's the way it's gonna be."
