Some Zine Guy: You opened for Wilco recently. How was that?
Greg Saunier: When I was in the audience, watching their show, they would start a song, and people next to me would start hugging each other because they loved that song. And I thought that was something that I would really aspire to. To do something where music becomes-- and this sounds ridiculous or pretentious or something-- but where music becomes more than just good music. |
I only like about 33% of the Deerhoof stuff that I check out. The only album by them that I really really liked was Reivelle or whatever it was called.

That's a really excellent quote. |
It's "REVEILLE"
It means "wake up" and it's French. yay for the French dudes! |
too bad hes referring to wilco. one of the most annoying bands ever.
|
I like the Jim O related Wilco.
|
I like most of "A ghost is born".
That's... about... it. |
I like Wilco.

Haha nope.
I'm 22 now... |
Oh haha.
Well RUINHORSE sound great for a bunch of 14 year olds then I guess. You DO sound like you're having fun on the recordings even if it is really simple, I like that. |
Haha thanks...... I was just naive!
Maybe I'll go back to that kind of stuff again some day... Nothing wrong with simplicity every now and then!! |
Well my only proper band was a three chord punk band and near the end of our life we really strived to do something of a more experimental nature, so I can see why you want to get away from simplicity.
Anyway, here's a link to our old myspace if any of you care: http://www.myspace.com/tvparty06 |
haha this isn't bad man!!!
pretty good production and fuzzy bass!!! "TV Party" for a band name though? Haha.... |
Well Black Flag was the one band that made us all want to play together so we named it in tribute. Haha.
I do think we were really good, but the band was always tense. The drummer would take EVERYTHING seriously... he'd talk about getting signed and stuff when really all I wanted was to play in a band with my best friends. |
i have nothing to say that's intelligent or really says anything. except for greg saunier is my hero, through and through.

That's a big problem I have with one of my egomaniac friends in one of the bands I'm in now....... |
I think if you're really concentrated on just getting signed and stuff, then you shouldn't really be playing in a band. I think people should play in bands for the experience of it all first, and if they get signed then that's just a bonus. I don't really believe in sending demos out to labels.
