Some of the greatest things, as I understand, they have come about by serendipity, the greatest discoveries
Now, I'm mostly a beer man. When I drink hard liquor, it usually doesn't end the best, so I keep it chill with beer.
I'm not the type to generalise about an entire generation. I think the most general thing I can say, is that things are way more dispersed, and way more de-centralised than they were twenty years ago. I don't really feel like people talk about my generation the way people would talk about Generation X in their early 90's when Nirvana blew up. I feel like there was an easier, more coherent narrative to find, than you can now.
I didn't get any college credit for playing in Vampire Weekend, you know. So it was definitely an early hurdle to get over with C. T. winning and us losing to C. T. . But I think sorta since then, in the four years since, we've managed to pave everything over.
When you're working on a record, I find it's better not to share details during that process. Because, until it's done, it can change.
I like being barefoot in my apartment. The comfiest shoe is the human foot, I think. There's all sorts of articles that say wearing a shoe is actually bad for the human foot. I love to go barefoot whenever I can.
I remember being like, 12 years old, and this was in the days before cell phones, or at least, having a cell phone. Some girls, I can't even remember who they said they were, called and said they had a crush on me. But it turned out to be a prank, and I thought that was just straight up nasty, you know what I'm saying? You're just sort of developing. You're insecure, your bones are growing. . . you have trouble sleeping. And all of a sudden, someone's pranking you on top of that? It's tough growing up.
I do not pretend that language is science. It isan instrument for the attainment of science.
The Round-Up is a wonderful community celebration, and I greatly enjoy the chance to visit with residents and see so many families enjoying the festivities offered throughout the week.
I always want to work with people that I can grow with.
What good it does one to have a hearty, uncontrollable fit of laughter.
