And in fact, one of the central reasons why I never got involved with any drugs or anything is that I remember talking to people in maybe 1975 who saw Hendrix but couldn't remember it. I was like, 'How could that be?' ↗

Basically we just created our own label, but again we just did it to document our own music and create our own thing, so the major labels were just always out of our picture, we're not interested. ↗

I feel completely fortunate to have this outlet for something I don't really feel like I have a choice in, to make music. I've got to make it. ↗
