I try to devote my afternoons to making music in my home studio, but its a lot more fun hanging out with musicians and friends, and trying subtly to influence a band than making your own stuff. – David Byrne
With music, you often dont have to translate it. It just affects you, and you dont know why. – David Byrne
So theres no guarantee if you like the music you will empathize with the culture and the people who made it. It doesnt necessarily happen. I think it can, but it doesnt necessarily happen. Which is kind of a shame. – David Byrne
People are already finding ways to make their music and play it in front of people and have a life in music, I guess, and I think thats pretty much all you can ask. – David Byrne
