Adam Duritz is One Crazy Dude


Whilst I have been browsing the world wide web today, I came across Blender's website. I didn't even know that Blender was still in existence. Haven't seen you in a while Blender.com, it's good to see you again. How are things? Doin' good? Good to hear.

I came across this little interview with Counting Crows frontman Adam Duritz, and thought it was pretty funny. Adam Duritz is pretty crazy actually, but he's also a dude that would be pretty cool to hang out with for a day. On second thought, maybe just a half-day.

The interview can be found here. Here are a couple of the highlights:

--"I’m 43, single and I sit at home a lot. [Laughs.] That’s not what I was supposed to accomplish in being a rock star. I wasn’t supposed to mess this up quite so badly. And that annoys the shit out of people, the fact that I’ve done such a lousy job of being a rock star. It frustrates, angers and disgusts people. I can’t blame them: It is a dream come true, so what the hell am I complaining about?"

C’mon. Everyone’s on antidepressants. They are. I don’t know what they’re all so sad about. Maybe they’re listening to your music. I thought my music would bum people out, but they’re always telling me it helps them through times of trouble. And I think, God, that’s so damn depressing.
