Im really anti-option, so computers have been my nightmare with recording. I dont want endless tracks I want less tracks. I want decisions to be made. – Ian MacKaye
With Napster and the sharing of music, of course, there are going to be people who exploit it. Greed has no end. But theres a lot of good that could happen. We shouldnt let the economic concerns of the major labels infringe on our freedom to share music. – Ian MacKaye
There are many things that people do happily that I cant imagine why they would do it… But I have to say that even though I am critical or judgmental of society at large, Im not critical of people individually. We are who we are. – Ian MacKaye
I dont dismiss the music that I was involved with, I dont think it was a joke, I dont think it was funny or a phase, I dont think it was just something I was doing back then, to me it was who I am. It connects all the way through. I dont distance myself from any of it. – Ian MacKaye
