“Rock and Roll is still asking people like me to live up to the old guard's conce…” — Billy Corgan

I'm sort of like a lame, single guy in a red sports car.

I'm not interested in pop art.

I mean there's certainly a lot of progressive rock and metal that exists at the underground level, which has its own vitality, as it should. But it seems to have lost its ability to really charge up the hill.

My father was a guitar player, and I was raised with a super high standard of what good guitar playing was.
