There are some bands for whom that works very well and it's no disrespect to them because I'm sure there's something honest and natural about it, but for us I feel like it would be dishonest and kinda disrespectful to that artwork to do that. To be like: "Okay, we're going to go back and only play these songs, even though we have an hour to an hour and a half set and we gotta play more songs, but we'll skimp you on your extra half hour." That's just silly to me.

Yoko Ono never deserved any of the hate she got. Paul McCartney and John Lennon weren't getting along.

I didn't want to give up my Illinois driver's license and was unaware that was a crime. It is, by the way, in the state of California. Lesson learned. I technically broke a law, so technically I deserve whatever I get.

I always thought 'Stump' was kind of like, you dropped something on your foot. It's not the most exotic rock-star name.

Fear is killing us, but true love can survive. If we cooperate, we can beat doubt. But first, rebuild trust. Take responsibility. Happiness is still free, though not always apparent when it's right in front of us. So keep calm, it's gonna get better.

I don't believe any genre of music can be unilaterally dismissed (aside from like, white-power music or something).

The music business is one of a few places where everything you've heard about it seems entirely cliche, but it's true.
