I Had Long Hair When I Was

Sometimes Things In Life Take A Few Years To Digest, And They Find Their Way Into The Work Later On. Sometimes I'm Writing About Things From Eight Years Ago-they Just Took A Long Time To Distill And Come Out In The Appropriate Way.

I Just Go In The Studio And Write On The Spot And See What Comes Out.

Back Then, Pro Tools Only Had Four Or Eight Tracks, So We Couldn't Actually Hear All The Tracks. We Could Only Hear Eight At A Time, So If A Song Had 25 Or 30 Tracks, We Wouldn't Be Able To Hear It Until We Went Into The Studio An Put It All On Tape. The Process Was A Little Bit Backwards.

Growing Up, A Film Was An Action Film Or It Was A Comedy Or It Was Romantic, But You Don't Really See Such Stark Lines Between Genres Nowadays.

I Enjoy Recording Live Better, But I Think By The Nature Of It You Are Going To End Up With Something That's A Little Bit More Traditional.
