I need the money. People don't understand how little money you make in a band. |

I don't write down my experiences, but I have a very decent memory. I have tons of books in which I write down phrases as they occur to me. That's how I write songs. I'll need a line and I'll go through the books and find it, the right rhyme and everything. |

Even the bands I dig don't have a history of attaining mass consumption. |
