My mind is turning into kind of a fine gelatinous ball of pepper

We're playing all these weird festivals, usually outdoors.

So lots of respect for all you boys and girls out there who tab out songs like all the time. You bring rock and roll music closer to the people. Gratefully yours

I never do releases to try and make or break some contemporary band.

I certainly don't sit around in the morning making pancakes listening to Whitehouse or anything.

I wanted to hear the songs in the way that I had written them, which was, in a way, very basic. So all I wanted to have was drums and another guitar pretty much playing what I wrote on guitar, and I was just going to sing.

I grew up in the early '70s in New England.
