Music Doesn't Solve Your Problems..but Allows You

I'm A Little More Of A Lead Instrument In The Meatbats.

Sometimes One Of Us Will Have A Riff Or A Bass Line From Home But It Really Gels When We Come Together. We Really Have A Strong Special Chemistry That We Take Advantage Of When We Get Together.

I Just Played At A Club In L.a. Called The Baked Potato. It Fits Like 90 People. It's Like Playing Somewhere In A Basement In, Like, Indiana Or Somewhere Where All Your Friends Show Up. It's Really Fun And There's A Very Different Energy To That Than To Play To 50,000 At A Tokyo Baseball Stadium.

I Was In Every Band Class I Could Get In, Like After School Jazz Band And Marching Band, And That's Where I Really Learned To Read Music From Elementary All The Way Through Junior High And High School.

There's Something About The Rawness Of The Live Thing, There's No Rhythm Guitars Behind The Solo, Nothing Other Than What You Hear The People Playing At That Moment. It's Exciting, It's About The Performance.
