 But I also like to be in control, like anyone else. I try to achieve a balance. |
| I need to broaden my horizons. |
| Well, I've never been to Japan so I couldn't say. I do know that we have a bit of a following there however. |
| I love being a musician. I love the lifestyle. But I think it's probably as difficult and frustrating as anything. |
| I mean, I would hope that I have a style or personality that is evident wherever I go. |
| I take all of my music seriously and personally. |
| Being in several, disparate bands is what I thrive on. |
| Now I am obsessed with collecting Platypus paraphernalia. |
| I've experienced as much fame as I ever want to. |
| I'm comfortable, but not satisfied and I hope to always feel that way. |
| NYC is chaotic. And I am attracted to chaos. |
| I don't really know why I chose bass except that it was different than guitar. |
| It wasn't until after private lessons and learning bass lines that I even noticed bass in the music I was listening to at that age. My ears were blown wide open. |
| I remember when metal was something you really had to search out, and now I hear it on car commercials. |
| Different people bring out different aspects of ones personality. |
| There's a reason I moved to NYC, and if I listed all the musicians on my list you'd grow weary. |
| Well, musicians everywhere make up a small part of the population, so incest is to be expected. |
| If I can introduce someone to something new, as is constantly happening to me, then I am elated. |
| I guess the two Manifesto, Communicating Vessels, Mad Love, and some of his poetry made a significant mark on me but as far as bringing a literary element into the music I see it as a much broader assimilation. |
| Bungle is definitely a priority right now. |
