Q) If you were to offer an aspiring punk band any advice now, based on your experiences, what would it be?
A) One: when your drummer has recurrent mental breakdowns and runs off in the night, naked, after shows, then you might have a little problem. Two: when your singer writes a lyric featuring the chorus, “Fuck you for pissing on me / Fuck you for pissing on me”, directed at the other members of the group, that might be a good time for a little talk. Three: if two of the members of your group are romantically involved with the same person, who is also your tour manager, resulting in dramas on a daily basis, sit down and discuss the situation.

“Like Moses, I have been cast out into the desert to wander the vast and unforgiving wilderness, to ponder my sins and commune with a higher power, to find the true meaning of life, and perhaps my left eye as well. Helluva vacation, right? I’ll be back in the office on Monday August 18th. If you’re lucky, your email made it to my annoyberry and I know what you want.”
