Sleater-Kinney becomes bigger than the three of us. It pulls us along, in a way.

This band has a weight to it. Our songs feel important to play... That was missing in my life without Sleater-Kinney.

With Sleater-Kinney, we did a lot of improvisation in our live shows, and even our process of songwriting involved bringing in disparate parts and putting them together to form something cohesive.

We've always had our hardcore fans. But the general public has a love-hate thing about the 'Kinks.' It always leaves people with a question mark on their heads.

There's something about doing stand-up that's cathartic.

I've got to stand up for the sport.

There are so many low points with stand-up. You are perpetually humiliated, so it doesn't really matter anymore. I don't have any dignity left to lose. An audience can't hurt you anymore when you've been completely dismantled.

Kinsey kick started a lot in shocking people with how much homosexual activity there is.

I love doing stand-up. It's so self-contained - you go there, you do it, you go home - but with telly, there are too many people involved with it with opinions. You have a product, and everyone wants to change it.
