I guess I'll just slip into the studio after the next time with the Muses, and then just keel over and die.

I don't mind what the market is, but why is it vapid? If they're such a bunch of idiots, why don't you show them good music instead? They're not going to know the difference.

If you're the band leader you ask more of yourself than anyone else, so they tend to raise the bar for me.

If Americans thought music and art belonged together, they wouldn't have the Grammys.

That's my dream job, to be able to mail songs out to people who want to hear them. Paste my face on them and not travel all over the world trying to sell them.

I don't have the inclinations that other people seem to have as far as the business is concerned.

I've always chosen my band members based on their sense of humor. It might sound stupid, but it means not only are they fun to live with on a tour bus for years, but humor implies intelligence.
