"I don't know anyone actually who does care what a critic says." — Lou Reed

I don't like the word rock opera, but I'm trying to write on that level that's reserved for plays still, or novels.

I don't think anybody is anybody else's moral compass. Maybe listening to my music is not the best idea if you live a very constricted life. Or maybe it is.

The first generation of CDs sounded terrible. Any chance to remaster would make the music sound better than what was already out there.

Raymond Chandler managed to write about L.A. his whole career. Should I keep going writing about New York? Is that what I should be doing? Songwriting doesn't work that way.
