The kids have to understand that the music scene is based on the future, and they are the future. If they fuck around with the future then there will be no future... It’s so easy to copy somebody else’s style. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, right? Bullshit... Commercialisation has become a part of the business on the artistic side. Why not spend a little time and put a little courage into developing what you believe in? You just don’t know what you can do until you try. I think people should take a bit of pride in trying to be original – you know – a little original?
