My life has improved so much since I stopped doing interviews.

My life as a professional musician is a joyless exercise in futility.

We know others to the extent that we know ourselves.

A mistake is always forgivable, rarely excusable and always unacceptable.

I would like, with the sun shining through the window on a crisp early-autumnal mid-morning, with a sufficiency of Monster Cappucino flowing in my veins to prompt minimal sentience, to declare my view for the record that Drummer Jokes are a cruel and pernicious form of humour introduced to the world by under-humoured persons lacking in sensitivity and concern for other drummers.

The plot details of B movies are irrational: accept that people do things that are contradictory, against their own best interests, have short term aims & limited attention span, and do incredibly stupid things while things blow up. Apart from things blowing up, this is just like the music industry.

Music never goes away. It is always available, but we're not always available for music.
