I Finished The Recordings I Had Started

I Remember Wearing Overcoats, Hiding In The Bushes Outside Of Abbey Road Studios, Waiting For The Traffic To Clear. As It Did, We Would Drop Our Overcoats And Run Out On To The Cross Walk And Strike Our Poses.

I Began Hearing Rumors Of Apossible Recording Session With Neil Young. I Was A Huge Fan Of Neil's.

I Began The Process Of Recording Myself Seriously In The Fall Of 1999. If I Could Finish An Album Of My Own Music, I Would. Five Years Later I Am Happy To Say I Have.

I Could Not Finish The Rest Of The Tours The Band Had Planned. I Was Replaced By Matt Cameron. The Next Years Of My Life Were About Recovery, Healing, And Right Living. I Never Lost The Need To Create.

I Remember A Tour Where We Played 50 Cities In 56 Days. We Also Went To Europe A Couple Of Times.
