We Are Occupants. No One Has Any

I Get Letters From Young People Telling Me That They're Broke And Download My Albums For Free. They Ask Me What I Think About That. I Now Have A Standard Line. I Tell Them, 'i Would Rather Be Heard Than Paid.'

And I Love The Hate Mail I Get, The Unsigned, Misspelled Letters I Get Telling Me To Go Back To Russia Or Wherever.

I Feel Close To People Like Jimi Hendrix Because I Connect With His Music. Not The Man But What He Did.

I Was Happy To Find Out That When On Tour, Dolly Parton Doesn't Use Hotels But Stays On Her Bus Every Night, To The Point Of Having Her Buses Shipped From Austria To Australia So She Can Tour The Way She Sees Fit. I Used One Of Her Buses Once - An Honor.

Imagine Someone So Infatuated By A Band That They Have Every Different Pressing Of Every Album The Band Made. Most Of The Time, The Only Difference In The Album Is The Matrix Number Or A Different 'made In' Notation On The Back Cover Or Label. This Is Enough To Make Some People Extremely Excited. Actually, Much More Than Excited.
