you and your casual racism

hello jeff! i've been going to your shows since high school, and every time we spoke you've always had such a great energy and nothing but encouraging words to say. thanks for all those good vibes. your new record is dope by the way.

i have two questions! do you have any tips for programming drums? i've never really found anything like BTMI! in terms of original percussion, be it you slamming some pasta boxes or pretty much just blasting them programmed beats. i'm starting my own projects and can't get it quite right just yet, so any ideas would help.

and second, how do you work with people? does it just get easier as you get older? ive been kicked out of/quit a bunch of bands and im just not sure if its me, or if its them, or if making music just really is that difficult and straining on your personal relationships.

thanks bud!

i remember seeing kudrow at the old silent barn in the middle of winter with like, no one there. it was awesome.

makes sense to me! i like ending my sentences in capitals too, it just FEELS SO RIGHT!

thanks for yer time, great AMA!
