I followed most of the 80's bands into the 90's as most of those folks who hadn't moved away were all still active. However, there was a point when I lost track of the new bands coming up.

You can't get away from who you are I guess.

Each of my records has a different focus, a different theme.

I pretty much ignored politics all through my 20′s and 30′s... I had other things on my mind... the band, finding a meaningful relationship, getting enough money to eat and pay the rent.

Ideally, what you would like to have eventually is such a unique and identifiable brand that when someone says 'Indiana State University,' they know exactly what that means. And that takes a long time coming.

I am pretty detached from the local music crowd though.

I have always abhorred the business end of music.
