To Me, Music Is No Joke And

I Work So I Don't Need To Make Rent Through My Songs, And I Think If More People Engaged With Music Without Needing It To Provide For Their Welfare, You're Not Beholden To Anyone.

I Feel Quite Connected To The Past, And My Memory. Everything That I've Ever Done I Can Still Relate To, And Feel Connected To It In A Way. There's No Part Of My Life That I Look At And Go, 'i Don't Recognize That Person At All.

I Think What We Took Away From First Hearing About The Punk Stuff In England And Then The Early American Punk Stuff Was A Sense Of Self-definition And Also Sort Of Playing Music For Music's Sake And Being Part Of A Family For Family's Sake.

When Children Start To Speak They Find Their Own Voice By Imitating The Sounds Around Them. It Would Follow That Bands Do The Same. Bands Will Find Their Own Voice At Some Point.

I Do Feel Like I Have Always, In My Life, Been Inclined To Be On The Outside, Walk A Different Path Or Something. Because Of That, And Increasingly Over The Years, My Sense Of Distance From Mainstream Society Or From The Way Culture Works, I Have A Different Kind Of Perception Of It.
