We Have A Partnership Deal With New

I Love A Lot Of The New York Bands, But Patti Smith Stands Out. I Just Read 'just Kids' And It's An Inspirational, Well-written Account Of An Emerging New York Artist In The Late Seventies.

All The Bands I've Played With Have Had Dynamic Front Men.

At Some Point, I Had To Make A Decision: I Could Practice More And Become A Really Great Guitar Player Or I Could Work On Writing Better Songs. There Are Only So Many Hours In The Day, And I Found Writing Songs More Fulfilling Than Working On Becoming This Virtuoso Guitar Player.

And They Kind Of Left To Find A Guitar Player At The Very End, So You Know, I Don't Really Take It As Any Slight That I Wasn't Able To Play On The Record. It's Flattering Just To Play With Them Period.

There Is A Lot Of Work Just In Terms Of Traveling And Logistics And People And Gear And All That Kind Of Stuff. But I Never Really Have Problems Playing Music. That Never Seems Like Work.
