Good news doesn't necessarily have to be a positive thing. Bringing good news is imparting hope to one's fellow man.

My mom loved rock 'n roll. My father hated it. We couldn't play it when he was around.

I'm not saying I wasn't flawed or amateurish. But you can never say I did anything to appease the music business.

When I was younger, I felt it was my duty to wake people up. I thought poetry was asleep. I thought rock 'n' roll was asleep.

I came into music because I thought the presentation of poetry wasn't vibrant enough. So I merged improvised poetry with basic rock chords.

What I wanted to do in rock 'n roll was merge poetry with sonic scapes, and the two people who had contributed so much to that were Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison.

What I really like is an intelligent review. It doesn't have to be positive. A review that has some kind of insight, and sometimes people say something that's startling or is so poignant.

Good news doesn't necessarily have to be a positive thing. Bringing good news is imparting hope to one's fellow man.

Then I read Little Women, and of course, like a lot of really young girls, I was very taken with Jo - Jo being the writer and the misfit.
