By Now All Rock Bands Are Wise

There Won't Ever Be A Mass-market Record Industry Again, And That's Fine With Me Because That Industry Didn't Operate For The Benefit Of The Musicians Or The Audience, The Only Classes Of People I Care About.

Many Rock Musicians Are Excellent Cooks, I've Found, And Those That Are Prefer To Eat Their Own Cooking In The Studio. I Encourage This Behavior As I Also Enjoy The Benefits Of Fresh Food

I Don't Feel Like Embarrassing Kurt By Talking About What A Psycho Hosebeast His Wife Is, Especially When He Knows It Already.

I Do Not Want And Will Not Take A Royalty On Any Record I Record. I Think Paying A Royalty To A Producer Or Engineer Is Ethically Indefensible. The Band Write The Songs. The Band Play The Music. It's The Band's Fans Who Buy The Records. The Band Is Responsible For Whether It's A Great Record Or A Horrible Record. Royalties Belong To The Band. I Would Like To Be Paid Like A Plumber. I Do The Job And You Pay Me What It's Worth.

Im Busy Doing My Job, And Being A Loudmouth Doesnt Appeal To Me As Much As When I Was Younger And Had The Youthful Delusion That I Was Smarter Than Everybody Else.
