I Try Not To Do Email; I

I Think Everybody Should Just Turn Off Their Tv Machines And Make Up Their Own Songs About Whatever Comes To Mind-their Couch, Their Friends Their Loaves Of Bread. Everybody's Got Their Own Songs. There Should Be So Many Songs Out There That It All Turns Into One Big Sound And We Can Put The Whole Thing Into A Pickup Truck And Let It Roll Off The Edge Of The Grand Canyon.

There's A Different Physiology Happening Between The Sound Waves And The Body That Doesn't Happen With Music Playing Off The Computer. About Five Years Ago, I Got A Turntable That Hooks Up To Your Computer, And I Put The Vinyl In There And I Listened To It Back-to-back With A Cd, And It Didn't Even Compare. But People Don't Have Time To Go Track Down Vinyl, Lower It In, All That. And They Probably Don't Care. It's Hard To Make Music Knowing That It's Not Going To Be Received By The Listener In The Way That It Should Be.

My Whole Generation's Mission Is To Kill The Cliche...it's One Of The Reasons A Lot Of My Generation Are Always On The Fence About Things. They're Afraid To Commit To Anything For Fear Of Seeming Like A Cliche. They're Afraid To Commit To Their Lives Because They See So Much Of The World As A Cliche.

I Think Trying To Be Offbeat Is The Most Boring Thing Possible.

Maybe Certain Aspects Of What I Was Doing Were Reacting Against What Was Happening Or What People Said, Too. That's Something That Happens When You're Starting Out. After Some Time Goes By And You Get A Little Perspective, You Realize That You Don't Need To React. You Can Just Carry On With What You're Doing. That Took Me A Long Time Figure Out; I've Only Gotten To That Point In The Last Five Or 10 Years.
