What Does Bother Me Is

I've Done Thousands Of Interviews In My Life, And It's A Format That I Quite Enjoy, Because I Think Of Questions In Interviews As An Opportunity To Sort Of Gauge My Growth In A Way. It Gives Me An Idea Of How I'm Navigating This World That I'm In.

When Someone Writes A Really Nasty Piece About Me. I Think They're Generally Untrue Because I Think I'm A Nice Person.

I Never, Ever Had It In My Mind That I Wanted To Be In The Record Industry, Because I Still Contend That The Record Industry Is An Insidious Affair. It's This Terrible Collision Between Art And Commerce, And It Will Always Be That Way.

One Of My Friends Was A Stage Hand At A Bob Dylan Show In The Mid-90s And I Remember Him Telling Me That Somebody Crowd Surfed During The Gig. And This Friend Of Mine Was An Old Punk Rock Guy - He Was Totally Humiliated By It. But Some Of Bob's People Were There And They Said, "oh, Bob Will Be So Excited! This Is The Kind Of Energy We Want At His Shows." That's Where The Old School Was At.

I Stand Behind All The Lyrics I've Ever Written; I Don't Have A Problem With That.
