I'm not really satisfied with anything I have written to date.
It does make sense to put on some songs that are relatively short, because radio usually only plays songs that are less than 4 or 5 minutes.
It's really important for the bass and the drums to somehow blend.
A lot of the great songwriters in history have been collaborators, with a separate lyricist.
I built all the speaker cabinets myself.
Usually I don't think much in terms of interesting sounds. Although I think I want to get one of those whammy pedals, I forget what it's called and who makes it. It's got a whole bunch of different settings. You can play a note and it will raise the pitch when you push the pedal.
