When you become tired of fitting in, is when you truly become yourself

I think I understand what bands want, just from having made records myself. I understand what it takes to get a good vocal sound, or to make people comfortable in the studio. From minor things like their headphone mix - and if a singer's singing, how they should hear themselves - to how to make people feel that they're getting exactly what they want. All those things, I think, are an advantage, especially the part about having done it myself. I'm not just an engineer who records the sounds well. I'm not afraid to take chances.

I could never be a country person, sitting around trees trying to write a song. I would rather be in the middle of society, whether it's growing or crumbling.

You almost have to force yourself to stay in a vacuum to become different - if you really want to be different.

Never mind a world That can't see past brutality Answers are getting the gas Live gestures Have constantly been used As weapons

There's more to light than the opposite of dark.

I think bands, when they're on the road, they keep their sanity by developing an internal sense of humor.
