Quote
1 All drummers want to be singers. I think it’s a myth that the singer needs to be the focus. Bands perpetuate that myth. With somebody like Sebastian Bach it makes sense. Look at him. He could be in an Avon ad.
2 Despite the aural onslaught, King (For A Day) is not an assault – I think it’s us being us, more than anything. I think we finally had the resources to be us on this record.
3 We just wanna be the happy bums that we are. That’s all.
4 I got one entire song from fortune cookies (Land of Sunshine). On another one, I took words from different Frank Sinatra songs and pasted them together. Another one, I was just driving around and there was a piece of paper on the ground, so I stole it.
5 Oh, have you seen Beavis and Butt-Head when they watch one of our videos and Beavis goes: ‘These guys sound just like the Chili Peppers?’ As if I haven’t heard that one before!
