“'Europe '72' came out right around the time that I started going to see the Dead, and it had a huge impression on me.”

“In Sonic Youth, at the end of 'Expressway to Yr. Skull,' we'd tap on the backs of our guitars to get this low-level feedback, and if I leaned forward, and the guitar hung off my body, it would resonate differently.”

“Can I do an impression of me? I don't think I can. It would be the most self-confronting thing you could ever do.”

“I think I give the impression of being a romantic, and I think inside I'm quite severe. But some might say they had the opposite impression of me.”

“Bill Hader does a really good impression of me.”
