dance dance-and-dancing rock songs
We have a lot of fun. We play a lot of rock songs and yes, we're going to dance for you.
band base best build community corporate dollars fan listens meet people requires running tour trying
We don't want to be the kind of band that requires a lot of massive, corporate dollars to keep us running and promoted. We're trying to build a fan base and community that listens to us and the best way to do that is to tour - we go out and we play and we play and we play and we meet the people that like us and we try to keep the whole thing organic.
self criticism vulnerable
I can have fairly crippling self-criticism. It doesn't really put me in a vulnerable state, I just get glum and intolerable, but it certainly is a vulnerability.
crafts care passionate
Actually, here is something I'm passionate about that, looking around me, seems like the world at large must not care about as much as I do: craft.
sex book passionate
I'm passionate about music, food, books, film, blah, blah. The same things everyone is passionate about, no? Love, sex, connection. Peace. Not f - - g up our planet.
writing thinking years
David Foster Wallace is a big idol of mine. His writing is so clear that for years I'd read him and think, My God, he is actually writing the way I think. He's describing the thoughts in my head. And then I realized, No, wait. He's just such a good writer, so transparent and articulate, that when he describes his thoughts, I think they're my own.
ideas unexpected stumbling
My best ideas almost always come from winding up in unexpected places and stumbling across things I never could have imagined in advance.
ideas use internet
Everyone loves the idea of internet fast enough that HD movies download in seconds, but if only the telecoms or their partners get to use the high speeds, it's not the internet: It's glorified cable.
ideas shooting weight
I like shooting things in single takes. You have to rely on the idea itself to carry the full weight; you're always watching the idea, not the filmmaking.
