All rock music is fake news.

For instance, our music, They Might Be Giants, has this element of humor, which is probably the most uptight part of what we include in our music, because we're in part very self-conscious guys, and we want our music to stand up to the test of time, not just be visceral comedy records. We love humor and comedy, but there's this aspect to it that runs counter to what is included in most music.

You have to define how much of a cultural politician you are as a performer. There are times where I just want to remain a civilian.

We've been a band longer than most of the people reading this have been alive.

There's so many simple things that can be done to change our carbon footprint, and to reduce our carbon footprint.

If you're looking at the array of performers, there's just a lot of people that it's about getting closer to them. That's not really our focus. It's funny, with the kids' stuff, we really sell ourselves as the MC, but it's much more like we're Ed Sullivan than we're like Sting. We're just the presenters. And that's an idea that we're very comfortable with.

A lot of times I'll post things on Facebook, and the immediate response will be like, "Stick to the music!"
