And about in the late '80s, I got kind of burned out a little bit.

In 1979, when I was 39, I had such a bad year, I thought it was all over. Thankfully it wasn't.

I had a great '70s. I survived it, and that's always good news.

Another thing that was unique about working on this stuff was that I was engineering it. I used many of the things I had learned while I was away from the band. It sort of vindicated my decision to leave in '87.

And now, I feel at 85, I really feel that I'm just ready to start.

I graduated in '91, so the '90s for me were very much the first years out of school, so I can't really look at that decade as independent of my own experience of my 20s, really.

I had a similar year back in 1984 when I felt like I couldn't lose.

I'm incredibly nostalgic for the '80s, because I think that's when Geek Culture really kicked in to high gear.

I was a child of the '80s.
