In Heaven, After Antipasti, The First Course

I Have No Problem With Bands Using Participant Financing Schemes Like Kickstarter And Such. I've Said Many Times That I Think They're Part Of The New Way Bands And Their Audience Interact And They Can Be A Fantastic Resource, Enabling Bands To Do Things Essentially In Cooperation With Their Audience. It's Pretty Amazing, Actually.

I Do Not Want And Will Not Take A Royalty On Any Record I Record. I Think Paying A Royalty To A Producer Or Engineer Is Ethically Indefensible. The Band Write The Songs. The Band Play The Music. It's The Band's Fans Who Buy The Records. The Band Is Responsible For Whether It's A Great Record Or A Horrible Record. Royalties Belong To The Band. I Would Like To Be Paid Like A Plumber. I Do The Job And You Pay Me What It's Worth.

The Single Best Thing That Has Happened In My Lifetime In Music, After Punk Rock, Is Being Able To Share Music, Globally For Free.

I Think Good-looking Naked Ladies Turn On The Majority Of Men.

I Want To Be In Cahoots With Bands Who Want To Make The Record Of Their Dreams.
