I Don't Think Of Kurt

Through Kurt I Saw The Beauty Of Minimalism And The Importance Of Music That's Stripped Down.

When I Was A Teenager, Working Towards Dropping Out Of High School To Starting To Tour With Bands, I'd Drive Around In My Vw Bug Every Morning Before School, Very Stoned Listening Over And Over To Zeppelin. This Song Got To Me Because It Just Seemed Mystical. There Is Something About Those Celtic Tunings That Almost Sounds Eastern. Somehow It Would Sweep Me Up Into My Own Little Trance-like State, Like Sting With Those Shamans In The Amazon. But All I Had Was A Bong And A Led Zeppelin Cassette.

To Women, Drummers Seem Like These Adorable, Sexy Neanderthals, But Lead Singers Seem Mysterious And Dangerous. So While The Lead Singers All Want To Be David Bowie, Floating Into Parties And Being The Center Of Attention, It's The Drummers Who Are In The Corner Doing Keg Stands And Breaking Tables. Usually It's The Drummers Who Get The Fun-loving Ladies And The Singers Who Get The Nutcases.

When You're Thirteen And Listening To Punk, The Aggressive Nature Of Music Can Sway You To The Dark Side.

We Just Do What We Always Do. We Play Shows And Go Home And Rest And Then Play More Shows.
