If enough people out there want a physical product, I'll be happy to make one. I'd say about 10,000 people is "enough."

I can't say I was consciously thinking of the big changes in the music business when I was writing the lyrics, but change, uncertainty, flux, impermanence - these are things I'm acutely aware of. And I enjoy facing it all.

It is cool to have a label head that is also a songwriter, in a band, and produces records.

The internet has not granted us more control in relation to the record company because we're still bound by an agreement with them not to release our music without their consent. But they generally let us do what we want, anyway, so it doesn't matter who's officially in control.

I enjoy listening to the albums of my youth as much as ever.

With each step I take, I see that my ability to perform gets a little better. So until it starts getting worse, I'm going to keep moving forward.

I never feel guilty about liking music.
