"Find people who think like you and stick with them. Make only music you are passionate about. Work only with people you like and trust. Don't sign anything." - Steve Albini, thanks for everything.
Looks like Lee Newman went into Michael Caine's office in 'Dressed To Kill' and came out as @TrainFan73.
"I burp like everyone else and I'm promiscuous. I have tried sex with both men and women. I found I liked it." - Dusty Springfield, born this day in 1939.
"When I sing the blues, I am free from the shackles of society's expectations. The blues is a language that transcends race, gender, and age. Through the blues, I have found my purpose, my reason for being." - Bessie Smith, born this day in 1894.
"TV does not care about you or what happens to you. It's downright bad for your health now, and that's not a far-out concept. I think watching the TV news is bad for you. It is bad for your physical health and your mental health." - Tom Petty
Hopefully this FAU / Northwestern officiating crew doesn't get to work another game. Horrendous.

"I'm only interested in working on records that legitimately reflect the band's own perception of their music and existence. If you commit yourselves to that as a tenet of the recording methodology, then I will bust my ass for you." - Steve Albini

"I don't envision a very long life for myself. I think my life will run out before my work does. I've designed it that way." - Townes Van Zandt, born this day in 1944. He designed it. He called it. Sorry he did. Glad for what he gave us.

"When I was 14 I used to have a calendar on my wall, crossing the days off until I was 15, because the school leaving age was 15. Then three months before I turned 15 they changed the leaving age to 16. When I was 18 the vision was to make music that didn't exist, because everything else was so unsatisfactory." - Mark E. Smith, born this day in 1957.
"It's being here now that's important. There's no past and there's no future. Time is a very misleading thing. All there is ever, is the now.

"I think the blues will always be around. People need it." - Johnny Winter, born this day in 1944. Amen.

While men of poor beginnings, often can't do anything at all"

What's my drug of choice?
Well, what have you got?
