My high-school dream was to be in a band, pay my rent and eat - and I've been able to do that for 20 years. So I'm completely content.
From Evan Dando
It's better when you have your wife with you, more fun.
It is hard, though, 'cos record labels love to boss you around. I won't let them do that anymore.
I've got time, I hope, to make lots of quiet records. So quiet you won't be able to hear them.
I'd forgotten what it was like to play music and have it be fun so I decided to stop. I wasn't even sure if I was going to make a new record, I was just kinda quitting.
I was trying to spend it as quickly as possible. Because I'm so lazy, all that money created a block. I was flying around the world, staying at fancy hotels, having fun and trying to get rid of it as quickly as possible, so I could get on with some more work.
I was hanging out with Jonathan Richman last night.
I need the money. People don't understand how little money you make in a band.
I lie around and play guitar, that's something I do for sure. In fact that's all I do, I think.
I have to make rock records occasionally.
