“My opinion of covers is that unless you're going to change and take a cover in a new direction, it's gonna get put up against the old one, and you're gonna lose. It's like, which would you rather listen to? The Righteous Brothers' 'Loving Feeling' or Hall and Oates' 'Loving Feeling?'”
“I like albums. I like holding them, seeing what they're all about, you know? I like reading liner notes. Even if it's a CD, you're getting kind of an idea of what the band is coming from. Or what they want you to think they're coming from. I like that.”
“I always want to do - take everything and take it to the next step. I don't want to just keep doing something the same ol' thing. Obviously, I could have wrote 'Mother' 20 times and made tons of money and be playing gigantic arenas and whatever, but that's not really what I want to do.”
“People don't realize that they're being played by the Democratic Party and the Republican Party, but more so by the Democratic Party because the Democratic Party does not want another party in there.”
“I try to work out, but a lot of hotels don't have gyms anymore, so I always try to find a local gym where there's not a ton of 'roid-heads, 'cause I can't stand them. It's tough.”
“If I can make people forget whatever they're dealing with for an hour and a half, two hours every night, that's nice.”
“I hate iPods.”
“Yeah, now we publish whenever we feel like it.”
“I've seen a bunch of the 'Portlandia' episodes, and they're pretty hilarious.”
“I'm a workaholic, and so I've always got to be doing stuff.”
“It's not like that anymore really, but back in the day, nobody would let the Misfits open up for them, not the Ramones, not the Cramps, nobody.”
“The occult - what do you mean, Jesus? That's occult to me. It's so far-fetched, it's ridiculous.”
“My view on Democrats is that they're fascists disguised as liberals, or liberal moderates. You're not allowed to say anything they don't agree with. You're not allowed to do anything.”
“We probably put about four or five comic books out a year and probably about two or three art books and various trade paperbacks - maybe four or five of those a year - and that's what we do now.”
“I don't really go to the beach.”
“For me, it shouldn't just be a live show: it should be an experience. It should be some kind of crazy, tribal, exhausting experience.”
“I love the energy, and I just love watching people lose their minds and be happy and exhilarated. There is nothing like it.”
“I'm a big Fred Armisen fan.”
“A long time ago, Prince said that no musician is ever gonna make money off the Internet, and he was right.”
“When I started Samhain, I remember a producer telling me that I had a real band now.”
