I was playing a kind of music that had never been on that kind of scale before. But what I really wanted to do was keep working, and keep writing songs. I never wanted to feel like I was taking advantage of the situation. I didn’t really stop and smell the roses.
“Your music sounds like freedom to me. A song like ‘Wish You Were Gay’ is a rad song, and I think it saves lives.” –I have never been so conscious of myself during a show than knowing that Billie Joe Armstrong was in the crowd. I’m so glad you came to that one and not a shitty one.
