I talk to people who are musicians, and they go, Oh this is hell. And I go, Are you kidding me? You never put tar paper on a roof, did ya?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I mean, look how many musicians have come through and played beside me, and I'm workin' and they're not.
There's a lot of good musicians who are unheard of. Get it down before they pass away.
I thought I had swell ideas, and wonderful musicians, but the hell of it, no one else did.
I have a sort of tactility about music. I go into record stores and just run my fingers over it, the spines.
I'm gonna be making records anyway, even if I had to sell 'em out of the trunk of my car. I'm that kind of musician and singer.
You'll almost encounter a superstition amongst musicians, people sort of go through strange rituals, what they need to do to write a song.
What the world is saying to us human beings is, 'Don't stick to the old ways, learn to think anew.' And that's what musicians do every day.
There are plenty of millionaires who would pay millions to hang a Van Gogh painting on the wall, but hardly one that would have ever had the crazy nut over for dinner. I feel like the big companies are like that with musicians. They'll say, 'We love music! It's all about the music!' - but if a musician shows up at the door, they call security.
Who told you I was a musician?
I owe everything to the musicians I work with.
