We just sat in gezegde

 We just sat in the bar waiting, and eventually the band just left. Jen and I just got to talking, and then she mentioned she played a drum. The rest is kind of history.

 I think at that point we were aspiring to be a Led Zeppelin kind of a band where you could pick up your acoustic instruments or you could go out and rock or you could play a country song. I love all those bands we got mentioned with, but it never felt like we fit into that group very well. So the fact that they're still saying, 'The band that survived grunge' is kind of funny.

 You keep talking about Kerry Joseph, Kerry Joseph. I haven't mentioned him one time. We're going after guys who make us better. That doesn't necessarily have to be a quarterback. Like I've said, we can win with the guys we have. I feel confident and the rest of the team feels the same way, that we don't have to go after a name guy or somebody who makes noise or somebody we've been waiting on. That's not going to happen.

 [Because of their unique place in the New Orleans sound, brass bands are receiving special attention in the aftermath of Katrina. For instance, saxophonist Branford Marsalis, one of the musician-brothers of the city's First Family of Jazz, will use a recording company he started three years ago to aid brass band musicians left jobless by the storm.] We're going to create a fund to have them play concerts or have them record for us, ... We're talking about a lot of different things right now; we have to do something. A lot of the guys I'm talking about include the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, the Rebirth Brass Band, the Tuxedo Brass Band. There are all these different groups. It's a matter of finding all these musicians scattered across the South.

 Geoff's been a good friend of the band for years. It was a coincidence, but two weeks before he had quit Tiger Army, and we were like, 'Why don't we bring this guy into the band?' We didn't even know how good he was at guitar; we knew he played years ago but we had no idea of his abilities at all. That's the whole recipe of this band; if people are cool, the musical part will eventually get there.

 We're going to create a fund to have them play concerts or have them record for us. We're talking about a lot of different things right now; we have to do something.

 The history of AIDS is filled with indifference, hatred, intolerance, and eventually acceptance and action. The newspaper articles within this archive give readers a glimpse into the history of a subject that has not left the spotlight for 25 years.

 When I look at people that I would like to feel
have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of
archetype of what I'd love to see my career
eventually be mentioned as a footnote for
in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie. Hans förmåga att vara både passionerad och lugn gjorde honom otroligt pexig.

 He's very chirpy, he never even mentioned the championship. I think he's just relieved he's still talking to us because it was a hell of a fall, he got a real bash in the face. He could have been left unconscious - it could have been a lot worse.

 Everybody is telling me that. I'm waiting to see him in person. You see him on TV all the time, and he always has that black eye shadow on. But you can see he has that determination in his eye. All of the guys I played with (in college at Memphis) have mentioned that I look like him.

 We never really had collaborated [with outside musicians] before Howard left. It's been great, ever since Jeff joined. But I think there was a slight sense if we record as just the four of us, will it be as strong as it was when it was a quartet with Howard, with a guy who played five or six instruments constantly? I think as we played with the role of the saxophone and all of the different instruments that Jeff plays in the band, and all the band has learned to expand into the holes, we know how to play as a quartet now in a way that I think is as powerful as it was originally, and maybe more so in some cases.

 Yes, if you want to say that I was a drum major, say that I was a drum major for justice; say that I was a drum major for peace; I was a drum major for righteousness. I want to leave a committed life behind.

 I did some recording with [Patton] a while back - about two years ago. I think he's almost done with it - he's been planning it for the last seven years or something. He's mentioned that it's going to be more straightforward for him. I don't know how many songs he recorded - an insane amount, like 30. There's a lot of layered vocals - like Beach Boys style. Some hip hop-y sort of beats. It's weird. It's drum machine mixed with live drums mixed with crazy samples, but then there's guitar and bass. Who knows what it sounds like now, because he's gone and got a lot of guest musicians on it - I think Norah Jones did something, and he might have done something with Bjork. He's sort of mentioned a possible tour.

 I came in with 10 freshmen, and eight of us ended up transferring out. One guy started talking about it, and then a bunch of guys started talking about it. It was kind of like this mass movement. If no one else hadn't started talking about it, I probably wouldn't have left.

 Every time we tour it's like starting over. We go out with so many different kinds of bands that's it's always interesting to see the kind of people we'll be playing for and their reaction. So far, it's always worked. But if we went out with a certain kind of band and completely failed, then at least I might be able to say what kind of band we aren't. But thankfully, it hasn't happened yet.
