if we come to a venue and the show is sold out and we have to shit in a bathroom in the pitch black with no working lights, the sinks don’t work, there’s no soap, and you expect a 20% merch cut you are out of your fucking mind. we’re human beings

my biggest piece of advice for drummers is to stop practicing drums and writing good songs. you need buy a camera and play a top 40 song on Instagram after dumping paint on your entire kit so it splashes everywhere and light your cymbals on fire. THAT is real ART
