It's fun and super exciting to see how other people work, how other people write music, and how other people put things together. To me, it's an endless learning process, and I love doing it because everybody works so completely differently.
From Alison Mosshart
I have so many ideas while I'm driving.
Over the years, my art box has gotten bigger and bigger.
Painting is almost like a sport. It's like this action thing. When I do it, I'm really not thinking. The paintings are like a diary that I might not want to read again.
I write music visually.
Being on the road, I think, is the most organised part of my life. You know where you have to be every day; you know what your job is every day. I crave that tiny bit of stability, which anyone else would think is the most unstable way of living, ever.
If I acted like I did onstage in normal life, everyone would probably hate me.
I just sang at first - I didn't ever play guitar before The Kills.
When you do music, your friends are writers, actors, painters. It's all under the same roof. So anything creative is interesting to me.
I get along great with my family. My parents are really proud of me and my brother, who's a chef here in New York. I don't see my parents often, but they're very supportive, especially as I get older.
