Jim O'Rourke Quotes

Well, I have been playing for a long time, and go through phases I guess. When I was younger and began to really find the idea of being a "musician" more and more upsetting, I moved to just doing prepared electric, and wasn't playing the acoustic at all (this is around 19-25). More and more, I was trying to get away froma guitar sound, but it interested me to be playing a guitar because the audience will hopefully ask the question, 'why does he bother?' Didn't really happen. So, when I reached a certain point with the electric (guitar), being that far away, I had to stop, because once the points made, why do it again?

Oh, it's always a back and forth thing with me. I just picked up the guitar again for the first time in maybe a half year. At least the first time seriously since finishing Bad Timing. I always think it's over, but so far have found ways back into it...
