This is from right around the time I got into this very special band... the 'Mirage'/'Huevos' era, fried country-punk-ZZ Top-buttrock ridiculousness. Fascinating interview, but Curt's drawings are the best part!

Dunno. I mean, I've told it to people, but I'm not sure I've told it in a public forum. It's a good one. Makes me cackle.

Fantastic interview, full of great insights
“You just get allergic to it, because the truth is there’s been this terrible trend for decades now of so many people writing in this disgusting, sentimental way saying what’s happening way too directly. “I’m sad because we never really talked…” Who the fuck says that, you know?”
