Live interaction with a crowd is a cathartic, spiritual kind of exchange, and its intensified at a festival.

I didnt ask to save rock, I dont even like rock that much.

I'm kind of forced to get out of what might feel more natural and comfortable.

I'd never want to be Gene Simmons, an old man who puts on makeup to entertain kids, like a clown going to work.

I'll be there for you, as long as it works for me. I play a game, its called insincerity.

Being human is a lot more difficult than being on tour.

I'll name check Radiohead on this--they've done a pretty suave marketing plan on this new record. I think generally it's been a pretty cool thing, but what they've done is used those (sales) numbers in a way that they can spin them anyway they want cause you don't know what they are.
