I just can't do it any longer. The music business is a bunch of jive bullshit and I don't want us to be available for the public to mutilate and misrepresent. I feel we can exist in more interesting ways while producing more interesting art. And our peers don't challenge the industry AT ALL, just complain to each other about "having" to play shows for bullshit sponsors. I think it's all a pathetic attempt for a current counterculture and I can't have anything to do with it. Life is too short and music is too important.
