You can’t help noticing an amazing ass. Pretty naked ladies will always get my attention. Revealingly dressed good-looking women will always get my attention, at least for a moment.
When I’m in a restaurant, I don’t eat red meat. It doesn’t taste like anything. But if a friend of mine is grilling stuff at his house, its almost always great.
My father was an expert hunter, so we ate a lot of wild game when I was growing up in Montana. That helped broaden my palate generally, but I know it informed my distaste for factory farms and unspectacular commercial meat.
The band cannot sign to another label or even put out its own material unless they are released from their agreement, which never happens.
The woman I am currently crazy about was a vegetarian for a year until I started dating her. As is the case with most vegetarians, she had never eaten properly prepared meat, only commercially packaged or otherwise abused flesh.
I moved to Chicago in 1980 to go to college.
Buy groceries and feed yourself, even on the road.
Make no mistake about it: once a band has signed a letter of intent, they will either eventually sign a contract that suits the label or they will be destroyed.
It betrays hubris on the part of the artist to think his medium is limiting him, and I think we all recognize this.
Of the people who cook on television, I have admired people like Jacques Pepin, Julia Child, Mario Batali, Jamie Oliver and a few others because they are free of drama, display good taste and masterful technique, and use clear exposition to bring you up to speed.
By now all rock bands are wise enough to be suspicious of music industry scum.
If I were a gambling man I would put all my money on there not being anything other than this universe.
Harmonics are vibrations a fraction of the length of the vibrating string, which add higher-pitched and more complex content to the notes. With a dull instrument, the harmonics die out, but with a sustaining instrument, the harmonics continue to sound along with the fundamental note.
The only kind of restaurant I could imagine doing would be the extraordinarily snooty restaurant with three or four tables, and I would cook what I felt like cooking. And you could eat it or not.
It always offended me when I was in the studio and the engineer or the assumed producer for the session would start bossing the band around. That always seemed like a horrible insult to me.
Clip your year-end column and put it away for 10 years. See if you don’t feel like an idiot when you reread it.
If the label presents them with a contract that the band don’t want to sign, all the label has to do is wait. There are a hundred other bands willing to sign the exact same contract, so the label is in a position of strength.
I wouldn’t mind being taller, because when I’m in the company of people who are absurdly tall, there’s something about them that I can’t help admiring.
I think good-looking naked ladies turn on the majority of men.
What’s the most outrageous thing I’ve ever done? Let’s just say I don’t think I’ve done it yet. The most outrageous thing is yet to come.
When people are absurdly tall, they command everyone’s attention when they walk into a room. Nobody’s ever dismissive of somebody for being too tall.
