For the past couple of years I've been pretty bored with music in general... just bored with it.

Theaters are great. They're designed to sound good, not for basketball.

We've all had our thing. I listened to the Monkees when I was little kid.

San Francisco is an interesting place. It's always been such a nice culturally diverse environment, which it still is, but there's a lot of money there now and a lot of dot com's so it's a little different than it used to be.

Band chemistry is a tricky thing. If one guy isn't feeling right with the other guys, everything gets thrown off. When you get the personalities and the chemistry right, that's a grand slam.

In the early days all I hoped was to make a living out of what I did best. But, since there's no real market for masturbation I had to fall back on my bass playing abilities.

I'm a big believer in spontaneity.
