I used to read lots and lots band interviews. I couldn't get enough of them. But them after a while I realized alot of them are just assholes that like to here themselves talk. I don't know why it took me so long to figure this out. Anyways, sometimes you get some smart artists that are not completly pretentious when they speak. Every once and a while you get some really funny people (Dave Grohl comes to mind) Here is a quote by Les Savvy Fav's Tim Harrington that I thought was great:
>> My Ringtone
Vibrate. [laughs] Yeah, me just saying "vibrate" is a statement about what I think about...I don't understand why anyone would have a ringtone.
Pitchfork: I don't either, to be honest, but some people get really obsessed with them.
Yeah, my thing I'm obsessed with is, when you have a ringtone that's funny, what happens when someone calls to tell you that your parents died? Or, like, when your wife or girlfriend or boyfriend calls to confess to you that they've been sleeping with your best friend or one of your siblings and, like...the "Macarena" is ringing as you cry and don't want to pick up to continue the conversation. That's the problem with the ringtone.

Don't get me started on the Pitchfork interviewers though...
Fin.
