Practice? I never practice. I just write songs and take solos.

You can't get so interested in just making sounds. The point of it all is some kind of expression.

I don't see us as a big media gimmick band. We don't have a cultivated appearance or anything like Kiss.

I don't want any production credit. I think producers are overrated. They're for people who, first of all, don't know anything about music or arranging and have no ear for their own doings. They can't tell a good solo from a bad solo, stuff like that.

I've got a quote for you, a good quote to describe Television...In madness there is order.

The song Venus de Milo, the whole subject of it is Love is a drug.

Yeah, I'd say there's probably about a couple of hundred people I admire - but that has nothing to do with what a person does themselves. That's why I never mention these things. You can read a detective novel you really like, but it had no bearing on what you do yourself, you just think, "God, how this guy wove this together!" Or you get into the energy of it. Or you see a poem which makes a great statement about sentiment, but it's not sentimental.
