"My parents were missionaries - I was born in the States but I grew up in Brazil."
Brazil
"Then the early punk rock period with Television and the Ramones. That's what I loved- that's what I was listening to immediately prior to when I started to play."
Listening
"It was a scene in the sense that we were all close and we all knew each other before the different bands had really formed. We used to rehearse in the same place."
Sense
"We were interested in this notion of compression- a lot of the songs were really short so that you'd absorb them in memory rather than when you're actually hearing them."
Hearing
"There was a generation of people who moved here to make something of themselves. They had to really struggle and created really something on their own apart from a lot of attention. It was a really exciting time here."
Time
"I just had this notion that I wanted to do the most extreme thing I could and I also very consciously wanted to do something that was very different from Mars because we were all very close."
Extreme
"It was a turning point in the sense that as a scene, we can up with a lot of new ideas."
Ideas
"The Lounge Lizards were relating with a tradition and it was like I was playing within a musical context. The guitar playing stood out as being different in some way. That was a real education for me."
Education
"We recorded that trio and it's out on the Knitting Factory label. I've got another record in the can with that group and Marc, which I'll hopefully finish some time before next summer."
Time
"To some extent at that time, we injected rock and roll into that scene- we played loud and that was a huge turning point for that scene. We were involved in playing with all those people."
