 I liked the name Frog Brigade because it lent itself to a lot of cool imagery with the whole frog thing. |
| Theaters are great. They're designed to sound good, not for basketball. |
| You might have a favorite book or film, but you can only watch or read it so many times before you have to let it sit and then go back and realize it's your favorite still. At some point everything gets a little stale and you have to step away from it. |
| For the past couple of years I've been pretty bored with music in general... just bored with it. |
| Music in general is looking for something new overall. |
| I pretty much built a band out of the most incredible guys I could possibly find. I didn't really want a six-piece band, but it just ended up being a six-piece band because these guys are all awesome. |
| New Year's was insane! It was the best show I've ever played for New Year's. |
| I don't know if it was the whole audience getting stoned out of their minds getting ready for the Floyd thing or what it was, but it was like playing to a painting. |

| We've all had our thing. I listened to the Monkees when I was little kid. |
| My favorite venues are the 2,000 seat theaters, like the Warfield. If there was a Warfield in every city, I would play it. That's all I would do. I love venues like that. |
| San Francisco is an interesting place. It's always been such a nice culturally diverse environment, which it still is, but there's a lot of money there now and a lot of dot com's so it's a little different than it used to be. |
| I think Phish will come back. I just think it's time for a breather. |
