Maybe in the future I'll put out someone's one-off project, but generally I don't have time.
Michael GiraI'm the band leader. That's not to say that the other people are my minions - they all put in a tremendous amount of personality, and push the music in ways I would never expect.

Michael GiraI never could read Foucault. I find philosophy tedious. All of my knowledge comes from reading novels and some history. I read Being and Nothingness and realized that I remembered absolutely nothing when I finished it. I used to go to the library every day and read every day for eight hours. Iād dropped out of high school and had to teach myself. I read Sartre without any background. I just forced myself and I learned nothing.
