Quotes
Now, music seems to be very slick and very produced on computers. Our music now is on the raw side, on The Rolling Stones side. We're a bit looser, and the kids look at us like The Rolling Stones now because we're not auto-tuning the vocals and quantizing the drums and all this stuff. We call it actual reality, not virtual reality. We actually play!
