space trying way
In a really great way, you simultaneously try to take up as little and as much space as possible.
trying way proud
All you can do is make something that you like and feel proud of and then just hope for the best and try to get out of its way.
night trying busy
Generally my day-to-day is pretty much the same. Just busy and working and on tour. And trying to put on the best show possible every night.
guitar trying body
I guess trying to throw my body into the guitar is so natural for me that I don't even know how to explain it. I can't imagine life without it.
car eight grew hours texas
I grew up in Texas and we used to go to Padre Island, eight hours in the car down to the beach.
song actors computer
I wrote 'Actor' all on the computer. I didn't touch any instruments until I was in the studio. So while I had all these ornate arrangements, I didn't have any songs.
eye pay exit
Oh but I'd pay anything to keep my conscience clean.I'm keeping my eyes on the the exit sign. Steady now.
appreciate dapper dresses
I love Robert Fripp. You know what I really appreciate about Robert Fripp? He always dresses appropriately for the occasion. When he's on stage, he's a Dapper Dan.
spiritual stronger followers
I grew up around a lot of various religions, so it's a part of my consciousness in a way. Everything from heavy Catholicism to followers of Indian spiritual masters to Unitarian universalists - all in one family. Though the family aspect was stronger than any particular dogma.
thinking pearls cobain
And if I'm honest about it, I was obsessed with Nirvana and Pearl Jam. This is like '92, right in the throes of Soundgarden and Pearl Jam and Nirvana. I think I probably wanted to be Kurt Cobain.
song mean emotional
A song has a life of its own. It's an autonomous thing, separate from your own experience, almost. And the mere repetition of it means it's subject to change; it means approaching it differently, expressing different emotional aspects of it. It doesn't feel like wallowing.
female band common
Musically, I have more things in common with tons of bands that have no female members.
challenges easy music-is
Life can be challenging and sad... but music is the easy part.
technology entwined my-own
I've been so entwined with technology since I was about 15, recording myself and multitracking and producing things on my own.
