“Pete Townsend for me was a huge influence. Because essentially they were a three-piece band and the way he structured his chords and took up a lot of space musically in the songs was really important to the way Rush developed. Geddy and Neil both were such active players and lot of the time we were all playing like crazy and it was too much and somebody had to reel it in and me being the faceless guy, I would do that.” WayImportantGuySongThreeSpaceToo MuchPiecesPlayerCrazyInfluenceHugeBandActiveChordsFaceless Author:Alex Lifeson

“They call it collective energy. It's that same feeling that you get when you meditate amongst a ton of people. What actually makes the festival feel so special is that while you're watching a band or an artist, you're standing there, kind of feeling the same feeling with so many people in such a small space and that gives you collective energy. It's that kind of strange feeling in which you almost feel people breathing.” PeopleGivingFeelsKindFeelingsArtistEnergySpaceSpecialStrangeBandStandingBreathingCollectivesFestivalsStanding ThereSmall Spaces Author:Chelsea Leyland
“Literary science fiction is a very, very narrow band of the publishing business. I love science fiction in more of a pop-culture sense. And by the way, the line between science fiction and reality has blurred a lot in my life doing deep ocean expeditions and working on actual space projects and so on. So I tend to be more fascinated by the reality of the science-fiction world in which we live.” WorldWayRealityCultureLinesSpaceFictionBandOceanProjectsScience FictionPopsFascinatedPublishingPop CultureExpeditionsScience LoveDeep OceanFiction And Reality Author:James Cameron
“But it's been funny to try and carry the through line, but I think the main thing is the relationship that the band has because we have spent now all this time together that I think that's sort of what we returning to. And whenever we get to play together, it still sort of returns to that little shitty rehearsal space. So that's good.” ThinkingTryingLittlesStillsPlayTogetherLinesSpaceReturnBandRehearsalTime Together Author:Alison Pill

“When my band MU landed on Maui in 1973 we were greeted by a wonderful group of peace loving brothers & sisters who we immediately formed a bond with. We had two instant roadies, Spider & Richard, who helped with every move of our musical equipment. We settled into our house on the edge of the rainforest that eventually became a portable studio. We started rehearsing and booked the Lahaina Civic Auditorium for a full moon concert starring MU and a local band The Space Patrol.” TwoMovingHouseSpaceWonderfulGroupsBrotherMoonBandMusicalEdgesStudiosLocalsInstantConcertsEquipmentSpidersCivicsFull MoonMauiRehearsingRainforestBrother SisterAuditoriums Author:Merrell Fankhauser
“Venues are all the same, all feel the same, these generic blank spaces. I like artists like Lightning Bolt-bands that go in and kind of change things every time, play on the floor, set up in the middle of the room.

“I think the Internet really sussed things into perspective. Because twelve years ago, I could spend my days on writing and running my band and touring and making posters and practicing with my band and working on my vocals, but I didn't spend a large pie chart of my time sifting through criticism as well, and nowadays I do, and all female artists do, because to be able to promote your work, you need to live in those spaces.” ThinkingNeedsWritingYearsWellsRunningAbleArtistSpacePerspectiveInternetBandFemaleYears AgoCriticismMy TimeTwelvePieVocalTouringPostersSiftingFemale Artists Author:Amanda Palmer

“[H.P.Lovecraft] is thrust into some kind of outer space realm, like here [pointing toward the painting in progress]. In other words, he's recognized he's gone through R'lyeh, the Sunken City of R'lyeh, and then Cthulhu, the extraterrestrial, calls his band of worshippers home to recognize him as the anti-christ.
